    Bachelor of IT at UTS or Macquarie in terms of cybersecurity (major)?

    Tbh both are the same. Macquarie has invested $10 million into cyber security in recent years. Optus and Macquarie uni have some partnership in which they created a building/hub just for cyber security research. But no one beats UNSW in that field.

    Moving schools?

    I personally don't know any school that lets you enrol in Year 12 unless there are unforeseen circumstances. But no, they won't allow it because you want to do 4 unit maths.

    Any tips for Year 11 2019?

    General tip: Take care of your health. Make sure you at least get 7 hours of sleep every night. (Most important) Have an active social life and hangout with friends when you get the opportunity to do so. You do not want to experience burnout.

    You are probably typing this from a country in which majority of your population follows your religion that you talk so highly of. Yet your society is full of corruption, deception and dishonesty. So you feel that you have some moral authority to lecture us about our ethics & values on an...

    Best Tutoring Colleges

    As Jazz519 mentions above, tutoring centre for English is not worth it at all. I would go far to say that tutoring for english at a centre is useless, they basically teach things which your school teaches, additionally giving you a bit of material here and there. Majority of the tutoring centres...

    It just seems crazy to me that he earns that much money. Even if he is the vice-chancellor of a university, I don't think it's right for an educational research facility to be providing such an outrageous salary. The prime minister of Australia earns half of what he does.

    TEXTBOOKS! or past papers

    I would wait a bit before buying them, when I did my HSC a lot of the textbooks I bought were not worth it as I used other resources which were more effective in explaining things. I think you should first borrow them from your school or local library, and see how effective the textbook is for...
