    Really bad results in first year 12 exam block

    Don't worry at all! The weighting only accounts for internals which is worth 50% of your hsc. Therefore, in general maths the 10% weighting is equivalent to 5% of your entire hsc. You have three more rounds of assessments as well as external exams. As long as you can identify what you did wrong...

    Confused soon-to-be Year 11?

    Hi! Looking through the syllabus and familiarising yourself with the structure and layout is the first thing to do. All of the topics you will be learning are written out in the syllabus (unless your subjects require different selections such as text choices in english). You can't really...

    UNSW commerce

    Unfortunately, I don't think the 3 subject bonus points apply to commerce degrees but your EAS points will. However, considering the fact that commerce is highly competitive and people are already receiving guaranteed entry there is a small chance that there will be spots left during January...

    Anyone do a UNSW Commerce Degree here?

    For unsw, I don't think they add on bonus points for commerce if the bonus points came from the hsc plus scheme. If your bonus points came from elsewhere then I think they would be accepted. Also commerce is really competitive so in the later rounds there is no guarantee that there will be...

    guaranteed entry 2018

    Thanks for all the replies! I just got my email (heheh got so worried for nothing). There is a lag period after you update your preferences on uac so unsw needs to wait until they can see your preferences.

    guaranteed entry 2018

    Hello! I was wondering how unsw guaranteed entry worked. If I reached the guaranteed entry cut off with my atar and bonus points, then why didn't I receive an offer? I have been seeing other people receiving offers. Is it because they prioritise those that reach cut off without the help of...

    Internal program transfer

    Hello! I have a few questions about internal program transfer at unsw. I was thinking about taking up media (pr & advertising) and then transferring to commerce/media (pr & advertising) dual degree -- essentially just picking up commerce alongside original degree 1. Is it possible to...

    How much can u increase ur atar with externals?

    If the atar estimate from internals was around 85 would it be possible to increase it to 95 with externals? Especially if I worked very hard?

    Is there hope?!

    Ext 1 maths does scale high but you have to consider your school ranking as well

    Just another typical atar prediction, sorry guys

    80+ But also consider if your cohort will do well in the exams.

    How possible is it to bump up atar by 10 points?

    I got my final atar estimate from school and I'm pretty disappointed. In past years I've heard it has been accurate. If I work my butt off for HSC, how possible is it to raise up my atar? My estimate is 87 and I would like over 90 at least. Any help is appreciated thank you!

    Can I get an atar estimate please?

    Try entering this on an atar calculator. But i would say 70+

    Is it all over?

    Depends on your school ranking and how well your cohort does as a whole. If you and everyone does well, you can get moderated to a higher mark

    Dropping to general maths in year 12?

    Maths really is about practice. If you can dedicate yourself to doing more practice than you are doing now then keeping math will be fine. If you don't see any improvement with practice then i would consider dropping
