    Who thinks the HSC is unfair?

    but how would they judge on who the smarter people are?? obviously the people who do MX2 are going to be better at maths than the people who do general maths, but how would they compare to people, lets say between chemistry and visual arts?

    Gap Year

    well i guess i can understand my parents opinions - seeing that i have been brought up on the north shore of sydney, perhaps going to a developing country might be very confronting for me and maybe after i graduate from uni when i've matured a little bit and experienced the "real world", i would...

    Gap Year

    Actually, I got 95% for my first general exam and I got around 40/50 in 2U. Check your facts before you blurt them out.

    Advice please on whether to drop 2U Maths to General or not (2010 HSC NSW)

    I dropped from 2U to general at the beginning of this term, and it is the best decision I've made. During prelim, I kept getting around the 40s for pretty much all my exams, and I worked really hard (probably double the time I spend on every other subject) throughout the year and got myself a...

    My School won't let me do 10 units..

    I can totally relate to you, my school forces us to do 12 units, even if some girls have already accelerated in 2 units, they still have to do 12 (which is a total of 14), it sucks! I hate biology so much, my teacher is hopeless, she goes through everything so slowly and then we have to rush...
