    Some Tips from People Who Got Their Scripts Back

    I was under the impression that this was the case for marking in HSC Chemistry (well so my teacher told me on numerous occasions last year), namely that you would lose marks for incorrect chemistry or contradictions even if they were unnecessary e.g. if you added in an extra unnecessary equation...

    LAW advice, prequisites, ATAR requirements ect.

    Yes. That is correct but they have this elite athletes and performers scheme which I'm pretty certain can be used for law (since I had a few friends get into UNSW law under this scheme).

    LAW advice, prequisites, ATAR requirements ect.

    Usyd vs UNSW [accounting]

    I do Comm/Law at USyd and I think that Commerce at UNSW is better. However I chose USyd because I think that Law at USyd is better (so if you intend to combine Commerce with anything also consider which university is better for your second degree) and because they offered me a scholarship...

    Continuers languages

    The study of a language is a continuous process and naturally all that you learnt in terms of the language itself in Year 11 will be relevant for your HSC.

    B.COM/LLB or B.ARTS/LLB at Sydney

    I'm currently doing Comm/Law at USyd and if you want to do Comm personally I'd recommend that you keep the maths unless you really hate it/think that you'll do incredibly badly in it. Though the level of maths for first year Comm subjects is quite basic, you don't really progress much past basic...

    Need Help..because im screwed..

    It will depend on how much they're weighted e.g. 10%, 20% etc. (the less the better especially since trials are generally around 30-40%) and how well everyone else does in them. E.g. if you get 40% but everyone else failed as well then it will impact your total results less harshly. Just a note...

    HSC and how it's marked

    It's not exactly true but it is a somewhat accurate simplification. To calculate your overall HSC mark, BOS uses a combination of your external (written exam mark) and your internal (school assessment mark) which are averaged out to create your overall mark. Your external mark is what you...

    QTAC offers open?

    A couple of my friends got Medicine and Dentistry offers at UQ today so it seems that QTAC did open early. However it could never hurt to wait an extra day I suppose. Good luck.
