    Successful flexible entry application to USYD's BA (Media and Communications)

    WOW - this is pure brilliance! Thank you SO MUCH Jaimebien. Definitely proven to be beneficial for future years, as I am reading it now ;) I am aiming for the 98.50 ATAR, but think I will fall low but 1-2. How can you build a portfolio and get experience etc to write to apply for flexible if...

    English (Advanced) Raw Marks, State Ranks and Estimations

    Mmm, I understand what you mean :) congrats on the 102/105 btw, even if it was marked easy, stiill a great job. We actually had a hard trial, both papers were actually.

    English (Advanced) Raw Marks, State Ranks and Estimations

    Fingers crossed, but I'm definitely not going to expect it; no way! Yeah, she is only doing extension two marking this year, but in previous years she has done advanced and extension one. She's not one of those teachers who just tell you 'It's good, you're done", there is always more feedback...

    English (Advanced) Raw Marks, State Ranks and Estimations

    That's very true. Very difficult to tell. However if I got 8 marks ahead of 2nd place, then it was another 5 marks to 3rd place and my school marks easy, then wow that's still a pretty big gap. My teacher has been a HSC marker many times and her classes generally get the band 6s and the higher...

    English (Advanced) Raw Marks, State Ranks and Estimations

    I get it now! That makes so much more sense, thanks! I heard people mentioning that they thought Emily Dickinson was a hard related text for the specific "place" belonging question? Does that mean, if perhaps, for example, this is considered harder to have answered the question, does this mean...

    English (Advanced) Raw Marks, State Ranks and Estimations

    May I ask, how does it depend on the texts? As in modules texts? I'm doing Frankenstein and Blade Runner, Hamlet and History and Memory 9/11 Website.

    English (Advanced) Raw Marks, State Ranks and Estimations

    To get a State Rank in English (Advanced) would you need to pretty much get 105/105? What do you all think will be the Raw Marks for Band 6 etc? I was wondering iwhether I'd have a shot at getting a State Rank... I got 103/105 for the trial and got first place in the trial by 8 marks, as well...

    ATAR Estimation

    Yeah that's true, thanks. Alright so I could enter HSC marks that perhaps I'm hoping for, and then post them here and someone might be able to tell me some rough raw marks? :)

    Cheating

    I'm with suling... Cheating is wrong and definitely would not be worth it. For one you could risk getting zero or an even worse penalty and secondly, would you really feel happy with yourself if you got a good mark because of cheating? I think you would feel guilty and like you don't deserve it...

    ATAR Estimation

    So when you say that, how well do you think I need to go in my subjects by raw marks, just as a rough guideline perhaps?

    Who thinks they are going to get 99+?

    What kind of mark do you guys recon you would need for a state rank in english advanced? Pretty high I'm assuming. How do the raw marks align with scaled for it too if anyone knows?

    Who thinks they are going to get 99+?

    Wow, my school is ranked horribly! :(
  18. Neologism

    Who thinks they are going to get 99+?

    Yeah I'm aiming for it too! :) I agree, 97 would be good. If I get below 95 I will not be happy :( I'm kinda similar to you... I don't do history though... my ranks are in my signature ;)
