I'm wondering if yr 11 is anything more than a preperartion exercise. Do assessment tasks and project results have any actual statistical effect on yr 12?.

:cool:

officailly it is a 2 yr course, therefore ur assess marks in ur prelim yr count towards ur overall asses marks that is theoretically 50% of ur HSC mark, the other half comin from ur exam mark.

at my school they took this all into account, i don't know why they bothered though, as they then proceeded to scale marks.

so if its not too late, i would start 2 attempt my prelim assessments

they do not count in any way marks-wise. The marks do not carry through.
I was really dissapointed cause in yr11 i was coming first in like physics, math2U and math ext1 and the whole slate was wiped clean. But learning all the background stuff really well definately contributed to my good marks in yr 12.

but yeah nothing really counts

if you go on your university website and see if your individual subjects have websites. they might have already posted lectures, etc.
I dunno if thats what Time and Tide means or he enrolled in uni over summer or another early time. I started advanced uni math while i was still in year 12, so I know you can advance if you really want.

Oh didn't you know? It's the early-starters program. You can attend the lectures even though you havent finished your HSC yet.

They used to count towards you HSC. Fortunately, they no longer do.
They used to? Was that prior to 2001, aka the old HSC?
Coz counting Yr 11 results towards the HSC would be extremely unfair, given the great variance between the difficulty of assessments as different schools.
