    not as bad if you've learnt it before I guess series and sequences are surprisingly easy in Margaret groves text books... Year 11 is pretty much what I expected, lots of homework, higher expectations and more demand. Just trying to finish work when given so I don't fall behind.. Asian 5 is...

    Is your school starting series and sequences already?! A tutor isn't necessary if you're motivated enough to put in a couple hours every day.

    Ranks needed for 90 ATAR with these subjects

    Ranks fluctuate depending on what ranks you get for each subject if you're aiming for 90s. but Id say: Advanced English 20/120 General Maths at least top 10/90 Business Studies~ 15/60 Economics 10/50 Modern History 5/50 SOR 1 5/20 Basing this on how many band 5s and 6s your school gets.

    Can you pick up Extension 2 Maths without being recommended?

    Not a sefton, macfields or hurlstone student. Think more in the Fairfield region (not Fairfield hs) But im sure different schools have different requirements?

    Is it too late to change schools?

    But its just unbelievable how my cohort has 220 students and only 40 are doing advance, and this is a school ranked in the 130s... Yes, they're not happy about it. Though I've explained it to them and they said if I wanted to move, I could. Trouble is... to where? Majority of my cohort are...

    Should i drop extension english?

    Haha a lot of my senior mates say 'you'll do better than me' but with their atars past like 91-98... doubtful. I don't know, the head teacher is itching to push me down to advance... not sure if I should give into pressure. I'll probably have a talk with the year advisor and see how that goes

    Can you pick up Extension 2 Maths without being recommended?

    yeah pretty much. Well if some students make an appeal, they'll most likely let you into a class, its just the way you go around it but I have no idea about 4u maths since its the highest unit of study you can take in highschool...

    Is it too late to change schools?

    Sorry for all the posts but I've had a lot on my mind at 2.30am! anyways :) I've been thinking of moving schools but not sure if im too late. The things I dislike about my school are: - they have 220 kids but only ~45 of them are doing advance (including myself) so that drags the cohort...

    Can you pick up Extension 2 Maths without being recommended?

    I've heard multiple stories about how people did 4 unit maths without being recommended but heres the thing: - majority of my cohort attends truongs, which pretty much accelerates them in 3u and for some students, 4u. - I don't have that luxury but I do well in school and hope that I can pick...

    Should i drop extension english?

    I'm considering dropping ee1 since my school isn't great at English and the head teacher recommended that I should drop because apparently all the subjects im taken are 'highly stressful'. So adding ee1 would increase my workload. My teacher doesn't support me taking EE1 either, since its...

    Tutoring in or around the Fairfield region- PEAK, Uplift, C2C, Focus

    Uplift in liverpool. They're an affordable tutor and their physics tutor is pretty good looking (for all you guys out there (; ) their rates were surprisingly low

    How would you rate my subjects in a "scaling" perspective?

    Not necessarily in the top 20 ranked schools because there are dux in other schools that achieve 99.95 as well remember? but if your school ranges from 100-150, being top 15-20 should suffice depending on your cohort + a strong external.

    Year 11 2014 Chat :)

    yeah, I came second in my class but for prelims theres only 40 kids, so roughly 4 kids from the mixed class and half from the top classes. I have a feeling im going to come near last for prelims..
