    What do you think you'll get?

    Only the principal gets your results. It's up to them who they give the results to, but they will most likely give it to your teachers so they can see how their students did and how effective their teaching methods are.

    Do any of you cook for your families?

    My mum won't let me cook for the family, all I'm allowed to do is chop opinions or mince garlic. Sometimes I make the salad ):

    HSC Plagiarism?

    Why do you get 'rolled'? Wouldn't it be better to have more experienced markers marking the HSC each year?

    Do Markers keep Creative Writing?

    My English teacher does HSC marking and based on what she said, some teachers apparently do tell other markers about the great responses they read. She told us about an exemplar creative about mujahideen freedom fighters which she hadn't personally marked but had been shown to her by another...

    What is the difference between universities, specicaly UNSW and USYD

    Between UNSW and USYD, USYD's Arts faculty is considered better, and UNSW's commerce (and possibly Engineering?) is considered better. Also, in terms of Law, the universities differ in terms of teaching methods because UNSW teaches in smaller classes. It really depends on the degree you're...

    It doesn't go up to 10 for all courses. If there are more than 10 000 students in the course, then they report up to 20 state ranks.

    Dropping down to 10 units

    I don't think you sound cocky, haha. I know lots of people who were in your situation, and it's best to play to your strengths. But yeah I actually know some people who are in your year and want to drop to ten units as well, I know they were told to wait until Term 1 of 2014. I think it's...

    Dropping down to 10 units

    Doing ten units is completely fine as long as you're secure and confident with your other units. Most people in my grade ended up dropping down to ten units, especially the people who did 4U because of the huge workload. However, I'd advise you just continue with everything until about half...

    English History and Memory Related texts

    While Levertov's poems were not my prescribed text, Mod C is still overall about representation of history and memory, and how these representations are constructed. In my opinion, most related texts for Levertov's poems would probably work for other prescribed texts. Some of the texts that...

    How many words can you write in 45 minutes

    At the start of my HSC, 900, by the end, 1200. But I knew quite a few people who could manage 1200 in 40 minutes even in Term 1. O:

    Help, are my Band 6 chances over?

    Of course you can still get a band 6. I was average / bottom after my first assessments in English and a humanities subject and I ended up securely in the top 10 for both after trials.

    Compliance and non compliance;

    Well, if you're looking at countries who have complied, then you'd look at countries which have actually incorporated anti-trafficking and slavery legislation, and are prosecuting offenders. Issues of noncompliance would be countries which ignore international laws / conventions, refuse to...

    How much Holiday study?

    Six hours every day is definitely too much, but given your ATAR aim, you should study at least six hours every week. Remember, if you study ahead, then while everyone else is learning it for the first time, you'll only be revising.
