    Low scaling subjects

    I didn't do any maths, and only did one low scaling science subject (biology). Even though my HSC marks were higher than most of my friends, a few of them did good scaling subjects (maths, physics, chem etc), and got a higher atar than me. So yeah, scaling sucks :(.

    I want a 99+ atar

    In year 11, it's important to study, but DON'T overwork yourself, or I promise you that you will be burnt out in year 12. Once you're settled in year 12, go all out, but still have a abit of a social life

    School certificate is next week! Have you guys studied?

    You're right on the dot. The dux in my school at the moment didn't get a single band 6 in his SC. Only band 4s and 5s and now hes acing every subject and getting in the high 80s, low 90s. Hell even i only got 1 band 6, and the rest band 4-5, (except geo, band 3) and I'm still doing decently!

    Biology without chem, is that a big disadvantage?

    If you know absolutely nothing about chemistry, like you don't even know what CO2 stands for, then yes, you are going to have major trouble in biology. This would only apply if you skipped all your science classes in yr 7-10. I didn't pick chem but did bio. I failed chem in year 10 - got...
