No we dont assume nor do we estimate hsc marks. All atar estimates are very rough and brief, thats why people usually give atar ranges rather than an exact figure.

I remember more by listening so i have to actively listen in class if i dont want to fail (meaning i rely on my teachers). At home though i just grab the textbook out and write down points worth remembering and just read over them several times for 2 -3 nights before exam day. For maths...

Yea i put the big bang theory as well, it was the most obvious answer though. Dont know about the second part thought, i just put the dots represent stars cause dots are meant to be stars and galaxies are supposed to be represented by several dots or something. Not sure if im right though and...

I listen to baroque, classical, romantic and semi-classical in general, jpop for entertainment. But for studying, music distracts me too much as i get caught up with a familiar tune or a nice-sounding melody so study where i only listen to the sound of me putting pen to paper. :)

I think 75 - 80. People predict atar by how you rank accordingly to how your school is ranked. The logic here is that the middle student of a 10th ranked school is obviously more 'smarter' than the middle student of a 400th ranked school and will get the better atar, thus we predict how good...

Im pretty sure the music is sight-readable at first glance as they are chosen for quick song/piece mastery. Oh yea i forgot to tell you, strings ensemble (my one) also has guitarists and intermediate and concert usually has bass guitarist, so if you're not a bass player, strings might be a...

Well, all bands have to perform but if you dont want to perform all you have to do is to ask the music instructor. People usually go to the music teachers during lunch and recess and before school, but if you talking about band rehearsals then its always afterschool.

Yea im part of the sths strings ensembles. As for you, i think the intermediate band is better for you rather than beginners band (filled with yr 7s and 8s). All you have to do is talk to a music coordinator and he will see what level and experience you have and will quickly assign you to a band.

My views to capital punishment are neither for nor against. Just staying away from committing crimes and any punishment will not being charged upon is the thing that matters.

My school giving them out probably on thursday along with our school reports at graduation ceremony.

Yea, your full capacity is all based on yourself. Some people function extremely well with 5 hrs (my mum) where as some people need 11 hrs to stay awake throughout school (me). Just establish good sleeping patterns and your body will usually gradually get use to your daily activities and...

Youtube recently underwent a new appearance to the website. Do you think this new layout is beneficial for your future youtubing experience or is it more confusing and not efficient in video surfing on youtube. Please give your thoughts and opinions. Personally, I prefer the old youtube layout...

In maths, very smart cohort, according to 2010 naplan resuits, we came 8th in state. For science, almost as good as maths however not quite there yet. English for our grade is actually not that good, only like 10 students received an A for their report however the head teacher used the raw marks...

The only thing we did that had any relevance to the All my own work program was typing into moodle stuff the teacher dictated (basically all the subject requirements completed) so it would be sent to the board of studies.

I think 95+ and if you do well, 97-99

Hoping for at least 4 hrs everyday except weekends where i do no study and just exercise and relax.

1. 85 - 95, not looking very good with maths and english. 2. 98+, doing very well 3. Around 92 - 98 doing fairly well

Wow, very informative and helpful. Maybe you should explain the marks needed for placement and also past cut-off marks for each selective school. BTW, I go to tech too so might see you next year. :)

Yea i was talking about full asians :tongue:

Well, the only reason atar estimates require school rank is solely for estimating the strength of your cohort. You could be at a school ranked 500 and it is certainly possible (although unlikely) that 5 students at that school can get 99+. However, the competition and expectations of better...
