    Doing EE2 with 10 or 12 units?

    Your EE2 piece would have to be spectacularly shit to have "flopped" in it. 4 units of English is awesome, I finished it while doing 12 units and coped just fine. If you truly wanted to drop a subject then do it, but as they always say, you run the risk. I was also doing 14 units at one stage...

    10 or 12 units? drop CFS?

    You are in a predicament. But I will give you my story which I think is similar to yours. Coming into Year 12 I was doing 14 Units: Adv English, English Ext 1, English Ext 2, Business Studies, Legal Studies, Mathematics, Chemistry and Biology. I was getting very good marks in all my subjects...

    School matter THAT much?

    you could get a 99.95 theoretically. unrealistically though, fuck up one exam and you have a shit heap cohort to save you.

    restaurants love casual and on-call dish pigs, and citrus growers want as much workers as they can get and they pay quite well too, you just need to be physically able.

    Thoughts?

    although coming into the exam i was aiming to state rank, because in between trials and today i was getting 95+ raws on past papers and hadn't dropped a single MCQ all year. oh well ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Thoughts.

    And the light and darkness thing didn't bother me, it was general enough to talk about lots of things. some in my cohort over analysed it though and it threw them.

    Thoughts.

    It's surprising that some people had their pre-planned responses work well! I only had prepared similes and ideas for creative, and had done a bunch of General, Human Form and Morality essays for the essay. I'd imagine both essay and creative would have been hard to have a memorized response...

    Thoughts.

    I think you've done well given the circumstances. I used Roy, but the story was so fucked (maybe just because it was cringey) - but that's hard to avoid given the stimulus. Bostes is trying to stop people coming in with prepared responses, so I can see why they have made the questions more...

    They made it hard for people who had pre-prepared essays and stories. Did Genre: Science Fiction, essay was kind, and creative was definitely tricky - I felt like I was trying to revive a dead cat most of the time. wbu?

    Atar Estimate

    65 or less. A top 5 school is full of smart students, even shit internal ranks of a student in these schools will have a good ATAR because those behind them are still smart and would easily be in top 5 internally in a 300~ rank school.

    Business Studies Exam Thoughts

    Same issue arises when they asked how long "strategic" plans are. Some are 5 years, others will say 10 years.

    Business Studies Exam Thoughts

    I stopped using the Business Studies in Action textbook half way through the year because it wasn't as in-depth, or consistent as the Cambridge one. But having done loads of past papers, including trials, they have accepted two right answers before. I still think it's economic, teacher agrees...

    Raw Marks

    the test's difficulty was the same as pretty much every previous paper - alignment wont change much I don't think. although it would be nice if an 85 aligned to 99... just sayin
