I want to do something personal to me and based on my own personal experiences and it is linked to the effect of migration and acculturation on the social and cultural identity of Migrant Australians and its impact on australia I want to focus on three aspects including language and...

I've been agonising over ideas for my PIP. A lot of people I've seen have done topics that stem to similar ideas such as multiculturalism, Islam, feminism, gender roles etc. and have done exceptionally well and gotten awards and prizes for their PIP. So if you were to take a common idea like...

Hi guys, So i'm doing 14 units at the moment, but I definitely need to drop. I do two extension subjects english and history. The question is whether I should drop one of my extensions to take the heavy workload off OR drop Italian Continuers so I can get study periods, and in effect have more...

Hi everyone, I've started year 12 now and I really need to improve in my two unit maths course. I think it's my worst subject but I don't want to drop it because I find it useful and I need a subject different to my other subjects. (the rest are all humanities subjects). The problem I'm having...

Hi, so its the holidays and I've been brainstorming PIP ideas. I need to find a topic first before I branch out. What types of topics do examiners like, or what approach should I take with the topic. Is it more about the research than the topic? What distinguishes an award winning PIP to an...

Hi, so I'm starting year 12 next week (yikes!!) and I was just wondering if anyone knew some good textbook brands for: english advanced (discovery!) Modern and Ancient History Mathematics 2 unit (I'm doing not very well at it) French continuers I've heard Cambridge is good for maths and...

Okay, so I just wanted to ask a question about where does a band 6 cut-off in the hsc exam. So if you got a band 6 in ancient history in the hsc, meaning you got 90 or above does that mean you only lost 10 marks or does that mean that your raw mark got scaled up to a band 6. The chemistry...

Hi everyone, I am starting year 12 next term and I needed some tips for studying. I am starting year 12 with 14 units (including 2 extension subjects) and I will definitely drop something at the end of the first term but I need to see my results first. I needed some tips for studying. In year...

So they say they count your best 2 units of english. If you did three unit english, and you did better in the extension 1 course, would that get counted along with 1/2 of advanced? Also if you did 4 unit english, and you did better in the two extension courses, would those two only get counted...

I'm not looking at scaling, but I was just curious to know. I know that SAC has a reputation for being a subject that doesn't scale very well unless you do very well. So if i got band 6 in it and I got an E3 in extension english or ext. history, would SAC scale better.

If I got a band 6 in Society and Culture, or french continuers or even ancient history, would that scale better than getting an E3 in history extension or english extension 1

So if I was doing history extension for year 12 and a few weeks into it maybe more I realise its not for me, can I drop it and pick up english extension 2. are you allowed to do that. I know in for electives in year 9 and 10 and also year 11 they give you three weeks in which you can drop a...

I've always wanted to write, not necessarily as an occupation, but to have written something like a novel would be my life goal (atm). Anyways, subject selections have already been submitted and I've already picked History Extension as a 14th unit. (I'm planning to drop something, but not yet as...

I have a question about the mathematics 2 unit course. If you do 4 unit maths, they consider that you would have gotten a band 6 in mathematics as you don't actually sit the final exam. But 4u maths students still do mathematics assessment tasks during the year so they'd still get ranked with...

I don't know if anyone who does the hsc fully understands how the hsc works like moderation, scaling etc. but I have some questions If you were coming say sixth in your internal assessment mark in a subject and go a mark of 84, and in ur hsc you got a mark of 95, but no one else scored in the...

For all those who are studying law and for all those who plan to study or are thinking of studying law. Why is Law such a popular subject in almost all Universities? Is it because there is some pre-conceived idea that Lawyers make money Are there other career options with a law degree? Is it...

I am currently nearing year 12. I am doing well in most of my subjects (except maths!). I was wondering what type of marks would you have to get in basically all humanities subjects like modern/ ancient history, SAC, Advanced english, french to get an ATAR of 96-97+. I know any combination...
