    Thinking of repeating the High School Certificate, help!

    Ok, i need some actual facts. My ATAR for last year (2016 HSC) was 98 and I've put off enrolment until I can get a clearer answer. I wanted to do medicine but due to some unfortunate circumstances like getting depressed during my exams (medicated and checked professionally), I don't think I...

    Is private tutoring for USYD units common?

    Say, would it be weird if I got a tutor for my math units in uni? I'd like to wam boost but unfortunately, I'm doing a lot of intensive units (4th year subjects in 2nd year) due to pre requisites. I'm doing math 1014 and 1013 btw and I wouldn't say I'm strong at maths. Thanks!

    Friend wants to transfer... options?

    Cut to the basics, he didn't do that well and ended up with 71 atar, doing Lib Arts and Sciences at USYD currently. How hard would it be for him to transfer into something like Engineering, Architecture or Commerce/Economics? Thanks~

    Are you allowed to eat in Fisher library USYD?

    If it's not hot food and doesn't make a sound when you eat it, then eat wherever you want :P If it's hot food, go outside or something, we're there to study, not eat :)

    I thought we were the last year that could enter with 78.00 but apparently it was last year, not this year which is 80. Can someone confirm?

    Help needed!!!! Can I get 90?

    You could probably pull of a 90 easily if you have good externals.

    Atar Estimate Please

    Any rank up is better but last is considerably worse than 2nd last. Just hope that you did well for externals.

    ATAR Estimate?

    Well ofc, it depends on externals too but OP's ranks are all in the lower quartile, coming last in 2 subjects. I go to a rank 40-50 school and even kids in my school who come in the lower quartile of ranks struggle to get above 80.

    ATAR Estimate?

    A school at rank 500 would mean the average mark for subjects would be considerably lower, thus why it's rank 500. One of my friends who graduated last year went to a rank 200~ school and their atar median was around 70-72. Sorry but if you want 80+ at a school ranked 500, you need to come first...

    ATAR Estimate?

    A school rank of 500 ~ would have a very low DA% so I'd say the only band 5-6 subject you're looking at right now is SOR. For every other subject, you're ranked in the lower quartile which isn't too bad but isn't good either. I estimate 62~ to a max of 65~ if you aced the HSC.

    Atar Estimate Please

    For a school rank of 253 and those internal ranks, I'd say your looking at about 72~ give or take. Coming absolute last in mathematics is pretty hefty on your atar.
