    How is $80+/hr a justified rate?!?! Tell me your thoughts + why

    Yes! This is definitely an important consideration and I admire all the effort people like you put into creating resources. One thing that irked me was a group of people I saw on FB blatantly advertising that they will tutor using Dr Du booklets - so not their own resource. Though I must argue...

    How is $80+/hr a justified rate?!?! Tell me your thoughts + why

    One thing I've noticed is that the website requires a membership fee to contact the tutor. You actually aren't allowed to post your phone number or email in your ad, but the loophole is that you can get away with spelling it out e.g. zero-four-... or spacing the characters apart. My point is...

    How is $80+/hr a justified rate?!?! Tell me your thoughts + why

    I was just browsing through highschooltutors and looking at the rates people charge, particularly focusing on recent graduates who got similar results to me. I'm shocked. HOW DO THOSE JR STUDENTS JUSTIFY CHARGING $80+ AN HOUR FOR 1-ON-1 TUTORING? Sure, you may be a 99.5+ atar med student but...

    May I ask what your definition of a shit UCAT is? The lowest for this round was 2960 if I recall correctly and I think it's a pretty good score. Are you a rural student/have bonus adjustment factors?

    Multiple state ranks?!? Asking the class of 2020

    Is anyone here on BoS close with a 2020 english/science/math state ranker (or is one themselves)? To help our struggling juniors out, what was their approach to studying throughout the year? I certainly still don't know the proper way to study. Is there really an interplay between some natural...

    this is exactly what i thought when i chose D! from what i studied, fission in nuclear reactors occurs with slow or 'thermal' neutrons since temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles, my reasoning was that using the yr 11 thermodynamic equation (haha) Q/t=kA∆T/d, the...
