I'm doing quite well in nearly all my subjects:
1st in ancient, 2nd Modern, 3rd or 4th ext history, 4th legal, im not sure where i'am after the eng trial (before it i was 2nd but i think about 5th now) but im doing absolutely shocking in maths 2U with 16% in the trial although i'm coming 4th - 5th (out of only 8).
Yeh i know its a bad mark and believe if i could do general maths i would of, but my teacher wouldn't let me drop down and now its too late. :(

My question is I'm doing 11 units, so only 1/2 of my maths mark will count, but due to me failing maths (and probably have no chance of passing it in the hsc), how bad will i be affected..?
I want a 77 for UTS nursing, but will be happy with a 62 at UWS if I have to.
Will this be possible with me failing maths (remembering only 1unit of it will be counted)??

If you know you can improve and get a pretty good mark in the HSC you will still have a chance..

I would seriously recommend you try to boost your maths to at least a passing mark.

Then getting a 62 shouldn't be hard. Just try your best in maths and study hard.

I'm sure if you dedicated a whole 2 weeks to maths it will improve your UAI greatly.
