    Does Standard english affect ATAR results?

    It's quite misleading to just say "Not Necessarily". The truth is that you have to perform at a much higher percentile in Standard English than Advanced to achieve the same scaled mark. The scaled marks of each subject is added together to form an aggregate out of 500, which determines your...

    Romulus, My Father help

    Well I'm sure other people have different ways to do it, but you can either decide on what you think belonging is and look for that whilst you read the book, or read the book and form what you think it is after. I said something like "Belonging is a state in which we find a person, activity or...

    Scholarships!

    Hey guys, I'm was in year 12 this year and heard from someone that he got a call from the Scholarships office to be interviewed for a scholarship. I applied for one as well and really wanted one, I was hoping if people here who got scholarships when they were in year 12 could tell me what...

    what is the best text book??:read:

    It's not like one size fits all with Maths. I've found I, and people I have tutored, have learned better if you devote a bit of extra time and just ease into the topic with the bare basics presented in a plain, uncomplicated manner. Fitzpatrick does this excellently, whilst Cambridge seems hell...

    Is tutoring the secret to success HSC?

    Generally i guess : If you can motivate yourself to work hard on your own, then you don't need tutoring but some 1 hour a week tutors can help you learn how to shape your answers the syllabus requires that school can't always give you as good. If you can't motivate yourself - full blown...

    Are you looking forward to getting your HSC results?

    I'm excited to get back my physics because I think I might have state ranked in that, but not looking forward to english and chemistry. It's the little differences in those two subjects that really makes or breaks my ATAR =[ im scared.

    Merit Scholarship requirements

    Hey guys! Does anyone know people with, or have, a merit scholarship? How do they choose who gets it? Does a higher UAI do anything? Some people tell me a higher UAI gives you much better chances, others say if you exceed the 95 requirement that's it. What kind of things were the specifically...

    Multiple choice answers

    I am somewhat surprised no one has mentioned the ambiguity of the first question. I find it very ironic that the spend a chunk of the Space module teaching us how concepts of speed and velocity are relative and depend on ones frame of reference, then give us the first multiple choice question...
