    ORT for exploring transitions

    I was thinking of using Christmas Carol as my ORT but i was thinking whether it was too simple / easy? Should I go for the Great Gatsby, or wuthering heights instead? What do you guys think?

    How hard is the Prelim Physics topics?

    IMO the world communicates is just a lengthy topic that requires constant revision and practice. Electrical energy at home is the hardest topic for me to grasp tbh Moving about is just calculations and some understanding . Easy with practice. It's just maths and formulas Cosmic engine is like...

    Preliminary Exams, VERY POOR

    dude i highly suggest putting some effort into physics and maths. on contrary to zoink's statement - you dont have to study harder, study smarter. im a professional bludger and year 11 was also a bad year for me but devoting a little time for maths really helped me, loads. i do most of my maths...

    business studies needed for business degree?

    You really dont. it might assist you a little bit, but not by much. Uni will just recycle high school stuff in its first week, whats recommended is taking HSC Mathematics though.

    Earth vs physics scaling?

    if you get 80ish in Physics you will get your goal lad. 4th sounds very good, good job! with E&E you would need an 85+ raw mark, but if youre going in second place and are well prepared for the HSC you should go very well!

    How badly will my cohort screw me over?

    You seem very attentive and organised. Ive been to a bad school as well before Year 10 (what a mistake that was... so many opportunities missed). I'm not going to repeat what others said here but here's my advice: IF (and I say, if) there is not much work involved to get 90+'s in your exams...

    Type or write study notes?

    I actually had separate methods but I strongly recommend handwriting, preferably using a battery taped or banded to your pen so you can write faster in the exams. Heavily recommend using: 99c artline 4colour pen, highlighters, maybe inkjoy pastel pens for titles and keywords as they are...

    still very hard, 3 sciences + 2u + 3u + 4u maths what i heard 4U Maths is pretty different, as for 3U its not very different and smashing 3U means you can smash 2U easily. But then theres chemistry and physics to devote time into as well, physics is very theory-y in highschool :( biology is...

    Are my subjects alright? Tips for HSC and subjects is also appreciated :D

    Okay dude really suggest concentrating on Eco and Maths (esp XT1) as they scale the highest but at the same time dont leave your other subjects in a ditch. Maths you have to practice continuously, take about 15-60 minutes per day on Maths once Yr 12 begins otherwise it'll only get harder. Make...
