    Hypothetically, if person A were to get 100 in the HSC exam and person B got 99, but person B had higher internal assessment marks, would person A still come first in the state?

    Balancing Gym and Sport

    I'm in year 12 right now and I've decided to really get on top of my physical health. About a month ago, just before term holidays, I started to go to the gym and I'm really into it.

    Reading

    I've finally caved. I need to start reading if I want to stand a chance in doing well in english. What suggestions do you guys have for books that aren't super long and have some action (no romantic like stuff)?

    Taking English Ext 1 just for year 11

    I've been told that taking ext 1 just for year 11 can be beneficial for your english skills in general. If I do take ext 1, I plan to drop it for year 12. However, the issue is that I have 13 units right now, as my school requires me to take atleast 6 subjects in year 11. Currently, I'm taking...
