    Creatives - (to what the extent, if any) can they be unusual?

    Basically, I got a 13/15 for my creative in Trials (which is a decent mark I realise, but I'm for me that's borderline bad) and the critique was that apart from being confusing in some areas (which I realise now), it was a tad strange. I wrote about a genderfluid/androgynous person in second...

    How did everyone's major work go?

    Got full marks - well happy. My question was 'Analyse changing historiographical trends in the construction of the history of Israel's creation in 1948' (look at that wanky language!)

    Economist / Economic articles

    I read Ross Gittens/the Economist (the latter more for the current affairs admittedly). Though to be completely honest, you don't really need to - so as long as you know the vague current economic indicators (cash rate is 4.75%/inflation rate is 3.6%/ToT is at an all-time high/employment is...

    Essay Reproduction

    To be quite honest, I memorised all my essays/creatives (first time everr so I felt horrible) and I went out with really good marks. Just keep in mind that you NEED to be flexible with what you've memorised (be prepared to do some major overhauling very quickly) and make ANY link to the...

    Yep as in Pymble Ladies' College... Thanks for the estimate! Guess I'll have to start studying again to reach that 99.65/99.7 cut-off (if I can even reach it i L O L)

    Yet another ATAR estimate!

    Thanks! Gotta start working again, fun times. And yeah, PLC this year is going to be strong hopefully (with the highest proportion of scholarship students in memory... it better do well, I got to use that aligning!) Good luck to you!

    Yet another ATAR estimate!

    Yeah.. I actually go to PLC but I forgot what the rank was last year :l And I don't expect my maths to count, but there's the possibility of it being in the top 10 internally (depending on others) so I'm not quite sure to be honest. And I want to get into Combined Law at UNSW/USyd. HAHAHA...

    Yet another ATAR estimate!

    So my school doesn't release final marks, final ranks (until the last day of school) or an ATAR estimate (EVER) so here's the marks I've worked out with estimated ranks: Ancient History - 96 - 2nd/3rd out of 30. Mathematics - 93 - top 20 out of 100ish. Modern History - 94 - top 5 out of 80...

    20th Century India or Russia?

    So my teacher's giving my class the choice between 20th Century India (Gandhi etc.) or 20th Century Russia (the rise of Stalinism) for next year. And I don't know what to choose... If we do India, we'll be like one of the two classes in the state studying that topic, but she seems to know the...

    Not that I go to USyd (or even in uni for that matter) but both Sibella + Deb are lovely lovely people and I would vote for them if I did go!
