    Post your CSSA MARKS HERE!

    How come Standard scales worse than ESL? Is it because the BOS believes that ESL is more of a challenge considering English is their second language, or is it because Standard and Advanced do the same Area of Study paper and Standard generally does worse in that?

    burnt out..need help!

    1. Meet up with other similarly ranked students in particular courses, have study sessions with them. Chances are that you will be able to help each other with certain things. 2. Talk to teachers. 3. If you've done a major work, you get a week's break and then back to work.

    Person with the highest ATAR. Their name is painted on a board of old Duxes, and I think they get a small gift. They also get an entire page dedicated to their dux speech, their results, and photos of them and their family in the yearbook.

    is having a tutor important??

    I don't have a tutor for anything. People in my year fork out a fortune for English tutoring but only get like 11 out of 20 in essays. If you need a tutor to teach you how to write an essay, you shouldn't be doing Advanced English.
