You make it sound so ez lelEnglish - was glad that I scraped a band 6 basically. I was expecting high 80s to low 90s. So basically fulfilled expectations.
MX1 - yeah, I was expecting low 90s or mid 90s. Fulfilled expectations.
MX2 - was expecting high 80s and if lucky, 90 (on the dot E4). Let's say I did get lucky with a 91 exam mark and 88 assessment mark --> '90' final hsc mark
Economics - thought I bombed the HSC exam terribly, going in with such a great internal rank. Let's say I didn't do too bad for the HSC exam in the end but my assessment mark was much higher than my exam mark.
Business Studies - I expected to do enough for a band 6 but turns out, I did fantastic...
Physics - I thought I did better for the exam Meh, it didn't count so no worries~
makes me feel better. confirms that sciences are the devil though.English - was glad that I scraped a band 6 basically. I was expecting high 80s to low 90s. So basically fulfilled expectations.

I was realistic though.You make it sound so ez lel
You're such an inspiration.I think initially I had very high expectations (perhaps too high) and the reason why I set myself such high expectation was because of various circumstances, including the fact that I came from a migrant background so my disadvantaged background made me work extremely hard all throughout my senior primary and all throughout high school. I think initially I have to admit that my heart did dropped when I saw the 4 digit number which has now come to define my ATAR, because although in many other people's eyes it was a dream ATAR, I felt like I let my parents down and I also let my grade down, I think a pertinent question revolving around my mind was if only I had gotten a little more in all my exams, I could have made more people in my grade got a band 6 (since I was coming first for all my subjects save one so I had felt a lot of pressure to pull the entire grade up-much like a mother)I think I was really happy I got a band 6 in my English advanced and extension, it was a really strong affirmation of just how far I had come from once being unable to utter a single word of English and through one year of hell in working endlessly for English, I was more than satisfied, considering my teacher literally didn't teach me much about each module at all. I was elated over my chemistry results, got a bit disappointed for visual arts (worked extremely hard for it, endless hours poured into my major work and always gotten full marks in school for prac and theory), as for my other subjects I was quite satisfied, felt very lucky at my physics results, wasn't confident I could get a band 6 at all. I think reflecting back, it was an experience that taught me much more about how to view results and use it as a platform to move towards better things rather than being eternally defined by it.
If there was a question in the HSC "how did you results reflect your expectations?"I think initially I had very high expectations (perhaps too high) and the reason why I set myself such high expectation was because of various circumstances, including the fact that I came from a migrant background so my disadvantaged background made me work extremely hard all throughout my senior primary and all throughout high school.

expecting or hoping for?Well, seeing as I'm expecting a 99.95, I can only meet that or be disappointed, so I'm fucked.
Were you aiming for .95 or something? (and you clearly have asian parents )I think initially I had very high expectations (perhaps too high) and the reason why I set myself such high expectation was because of various circumstances, including the fact that I came from a migrant background so my disadvantaged background made me work extremely hard all throughout my senior primary and all throughout high school.

I remember contacting you last year, after the first wave of assessments for year 12. I was having a rant about how obnoxiously competitive and neurotic I was, to the extent that I was blinded by success and considered jeopardising my friendships in the name of ambition. You told me to value the HSC as a learning experience, and to accept that "there can't only be just one star in the sky, because a sky full of stars makes the world more beautiful", which is something that I'll always remember.I think initially I had very high expectations (perhaps too high) and the reason why I set myself such high expectation was because of various circumstances, including the fact that I came from a migrant background so my disadvantaged background made me work extremely hard all throughout my senior primary and all throughout high school.

He's probably topping ruse, that's whyexpecting or hoping for?
saying you're hoping for a .95 is fine.
saying you're expecting a .95 is pretentious as fuark. Not even the people who get .95 are expecting a .95
think about it like this, if they mark really harshly; then the entrie IPT cohort will suffer and as a result scaling will be higher than previous years. But due to the broad nature of these questions, and seeing how so much can be considered as an answer, personally i believe markers will be more lenient towards marking. Hoping for either a high mark or a low cutoffVery interested in how IPT will be marked this year that shit was really broad... like the broadest exam i have done to date
I only know two people that experienced this thoughThats the difference between a 92 and 99 l0l
Wow you remind me of this chick in my year who I found crying one day before the start of the HSC.Well, seeing as I'm expecting a 99.95, I can only meet that or be disappointed, so I'm fucked.
