Who's ready for Year 11?! (4 Viewers)

[LoveHateSchool]

^Eg, just give Ext a try. I don't do it but the hype is overrated. I wasn't the best Yr 10 maths student, but I was capable of MX1. The scaling of it is so good too, so that's also incentive. Also, I HATED maths in yr 10, but in yr11/start of 12, it was much better.

 

[Rafy]

Best wishes to you all. Hope you have a successful year

Why didn't you do maths? I mean I personally disdain the subject but hey 3U come at me ^.-

Well, when you're a student that ranked 2 for adv, 3 for ext 1, 2 for eco, 1 for modern, 7th for legal (lol stuffed up an assessment), and around bottom half for 2Umaths in prelims, would you drop it and pick up ext 2 eng and ext hist, where you know you're capable - albeit with hard work - to get a e4 for both?

Or would you stay with 2U maths and get a band 4 because it disinterests you and you'll end up studying other things with your time?

whoa, whoa hold up. soz, i though u just didn't pick it even for prelims. i see your point of reason now.

 

[Bored_of_HSC]

Hahahahhaha
try HSC

This.

It's certainly a step up from year 10 and ect. But think of it as too much. More as a time to keep experimenting with study techniques ect.

That said make sure you're confident with year 11 content as for most subjects it's interrelated with the HSC course.

Thanks, I'll stick with it and let you know how it goes. If I fail the first assessment I'll leave then and only then (by fail I mean >80%)

This, ranks are way more important than marks. 90% isnt going to get you anywhere if its the lowest mark in your class. You would be far better of coming first with 65%.

 

[Chronost]

14 units for first semester here I come! -_-

 

[Magical Kebab]

You guys talk about marks, I only have 6 in Eco, 4 in physics, 4 in chem, 2 in mx1, 3 in ex1, and 20 or so in advanced Maths and english with about half which are going to drop down to general/standard and the rest are dumb. I'm gonna come first inn everything (not to be cocky but I'm srs) so will my marks be affected cos there will only be me doing x1 Maths at the end of yr 12 and only 4 in the sciences?

Highly doubt I'll rank anywhere near the top at this new school. Everyone is Asian (sorry to be stereotypical but let's face it: they are machines).
If it was a really tightly ranked class, with, say everyone separated from the first ranked by 1 or 2 marks and everyone was getting 97/98+ in 3U and I was the last one on 96, would I be right to leave this (hypothetical) class? Even though these marks are pretty amazing for 3U???

Never be complacent. People are more competitive in Year 11 and 12. A boy at my school in Year 7-10 use to be on alcohol and other illegal substances. Now he's doing extremely well. So expect the unexpected young warlock.

If you do what you are suppose to be doing and doing it efficiently then you will.

I believe there was a double question mark in my post -.-

Of course spiral but if I'm ranked 1st let's say out of 4 people or even 1/1, would I get affected?
Cheers again champion.

 

[johnny1996]

I'm nervous-in my scool,our subjects are picked 4 us based on our abilities?wat happens in the case of a wrong choice?help !!!!!!!

 

[Pfortune35]

Who would do ext. maths and bludge? :S

heaps of cunts

 

[Pfortune35]

lol - 'humans'- who else would you be referring to? :L

But anyone who would bludge in ext would have to be insane, son't they have to fit a 2unit in like 2 weeks and have a week to do the third unit? Idk, heard its realy high paced with no time to stop and breath...

why did i choose this? *contemplates dropping extension*

Its seriously not hard if you decent and maths and can keep up with the work. Besides 2 unit is a breeze until you get to integration
which comes pretty easy with practice anyway.

The key to ext 1 is practice and consistency. But some exams can get pretty hard out of nowhere
