    How did you know (for sure) that your course is the one you want to do??

    +1 Just do the course you want. Don't do a course with a higher ATAR cut off just because you can - chances are you will be miserable if you do that.

    ATAR Cut-off for B Interior Architecture

    You might, depending on whether the ATAR cut off increases or not for this year. Just put your preferences in the order that you want them ie Bachelor of Interior Architecture first if you want it first. That way if you can get it you'll get in, otherwise they'll look at your 2nd choice etc etc.

    some advice needed

    I suggest you spread out your breaks - that way you will still be learning and won't be so far behind when you can start studying 100% again. It won't affect your HSC that much if you can catch up asap and you're break doesn't go for too long.

    Who does every single question in the Cambridge textbook?

    Yes, but the chances of those really hard ones even being considered to be placed in HSC exams are slim to none xD So the amount of time one would spend on them is often unjustified. Oh and she wouldn't skip the easy ones because her memory isn't that great.

    Scholarships?

    Tis too bad. As i always say, always apply for scholarships no matter what you think your ATAR will be. You have nothing to lose and oh so much to gain.

    Recommended textbooks?

    2u Maths - Coronenous, Cambridge or Fitzpatrick. Only get Maths in Focus if you have a lot of trouble understanding/learning maths. Chemistry - Conquering Chem and the Surfing series if you can find it. Excel is good for revision/learning concepts but has no where near enough questions.

    Who does every single question in the Cambridge textbook?

    Most of my tutoring kids are up to calculus now :) Ask a few questions in the maths forums and someone will help you. You just have to follow the 3 steps to prove limits do/do not exist ^^

    Re: Is it possible to get into a unsw course even if my atar is a couple of points of +1 And yes, it's possible because of nonus points are given if you come from a disadvantaged area, get EAS points, get band 5/6 in relevent subs/got the AAA award/alternative pathways :)

    High atar without tutor?

    99.00 with no tutoring and mainly well planned cramming sessions before exams :) But it depends on the person - some kids do need the extra help and are ecstatic to get an ATAR in the 70s.

    TIPS for getting ur first job for HSC finishers!!!

    +1 The three biggest things people do wrong are: 1. They apply really late. You should apply in October/November if you want interviews in December/Xmas casual time. 2. They can't bring themselves to write a resume. It isn't that hard to make one, even if you don't have much to put on...

    My year 11 subject selections

    If you prefer english to religion, then do extension english instead. Or you could do both SOR and EE1 - the workload difference isn't that much.
