    Easiest subject to do well at?

    What is the easiest subject to do well at? This does not mean the easiest subject but the one that requires the least work to do well. I reckon maths cause you can apply concepts and formulas to most questions. Least to memorise also.

    SC Marking/Results Process

    any changes in syllabus for 2008?

    an english teacher (a good one) at my school said it is better to get new texts for hsc english as the first people to do them get more 'general' essay questions (so he said) because they haven't been examined ever before so that's good for us! and yeah, its good to get new texts so we can...

    Exam Room Humour

    A wasp entered the room through the window and a girl jumped out of her seat screaming. Also, when the head supervisor lady said pens down, she said it so loud and annoyingly that half the room got an unpleasant surprise (me especially, I was deep in thought in the science one and it seemed like...

    My Senior Subject Selections...good??

    great variety of subjects, my advice is probably drop something for either physics or extension 1 maths if you want to do engineering, but then again its completely up to you Oh! If you are doing music make sure you have a good grasp of the theory concepts and advanced performing skills.

    Reflections on years 7-10

    English was okay for me. Year 7 was very basic, year 8 we got a great teacher who pushed us, year 9 we got a shit teacher who tryed to make us feel bad by rubbing in our faces how good she was at writing. Year 10 (this year) was great for me. I actually learnt how to make sense when I write and...

    'All My Own Work'

    "All My Own Work" is fairly straight forward. Just read the question carefully and redo the test if you get too many wrong. I got 3 100's, a 97 and a 96 on the five modules. It's not rocket science.

    How Do The Bands Work? How are they calculated?

    NO, the band you receieve is ONLY the school certificate test you did in November; it sucks I know (seems unfair to those A students who stuff up) but that's life

    How Do The Bands Work? How are they calculated?

    According to Cem, the mark on your school certificate results sheet is NOT your raw mark, it is your raw mark scaled upwards. It is also important to note everyone a;igned upwards the same so no internal grades come into the marks given for the external tests. (Sorry if it isn't right).

    SC - does it really matter?

    I would say the school certificate matters to some extent as it is a good indication of skill levels and strengths/weaknesses that could be used for future subject selection. It is also great to see how you compare to the entire state. But, as a number of people have said, it is okay to stuff...
