    English and Modern History

    Hey guys! I'm in Year 10 currently and I'm taking 3U English and Modern History next year! I was wondering if there was a correlation between doing well in English and doing well in Modern History? I've heard mixed responses on this. I really love English, so I picked Ext 1, but my marks aren't...

    HSC Biology and English Tutor! 2023 Baulko Grad

    Hiya, thanks so much for the quick reply! Good rank despite not being first though! And amazing marks! This might be a bit of a stretch but because I didn't see it in your post but do you also offer tutoring for English Ext 1?

    HSC Biology and English Tutor! 2023 Baulko Grad

    Hi Jos! I was looking for an English tutor and you seem like a good fit, but I have a few questions... I am curious if you are also willing to teach Year 11 English and Year 12 English even though I did not do any of those texts? Additionally, just to confirm, you're first in the grade for...

    subject selection: ancient vs modern history

    Thank you. I personally think that judgement thing might be more interesting than just developing and making conclusions, what kind of significant judgements do you need to do in Modern? And what's the difference with the amount of source work? I hate sources - but not historiography - so I'm...

    subject selection: ancient vs modern history

    subject selection: ancient vs modern history

    I want to take 12 units. In my school, there are more privileges for those with 12 units than 13 (like going home early twice a week). And I like English and Economics too much to swap them out. So I only want to pick one history.

    subject selection: ancient vs modern history

    I took a look at both papers. The paper structure doesn't faze me that much - source work in section I for both, and most of the extended responses are much shorter for Ancient. I guess from here on out it's just a matter of scaling and difficulty to pick the subject. Which is technically meant...

    subject selection: ancient vs modern history

    Surprisingly no - Ancient History was mostly Ancient civilisations, which was really interesting. And I also liked the military history we did in Year 10. Outside of school, I have a deep interest in both ancient and modern history. And the topics my school has chosen to do for both Y11 and Y12...

    subject selection: ancient vs modern history

    I am currently doing my Subject Selections at School. Right now I have chosen Maths Adv, Maths Ext 1, English Adv, English Ext 1, Physics, Economics. I am hoping to become a pilot and study Aviation (Flying) at UNSW. I am 100% sure I want to pick a History subject for my final two units. I've...
