Woah you're going for an entire year? JEALOUS. That would be amaziiiiiing!

Yeah I asked the student centre. It's a shame 'cause I really wanted to do it. Lucky for you though your signature says B Arts - International Studies so :D

Hi Guys, I just want to start by saying that I'm not here to boast about my results like others do because, unlike them, I didn't get an ATAR in the 90s (though I came close, 89). I completed my HSC in 2011 and got 89 in English Standard. I spent the last year tutoring a small group of...

How'd you end up going in SDD trials?

Out of curiosity, anyone here thinking of taking summer subjects/electives? If so, what are you thinking of doing? And does anyone know if French classes run during summer because I'd like to do another elective in Autumn, something more related to my degree.

Why are you worried? And wow, you're always online!

Very true, 98 overall that is. That's why I think it's crazy. Someone ranked like 10th randomly getting a nice 97 or 98 as their exam mark lol. By the way I still don't know who Brent is...

I don't even know who he is. What was he ranked? That's just how marks are moderated. Well assuming he was first, that just means the highest mark in the class must have been 97 or 98 (which is crazy).

Brent? :S You mean 88 exam mark but 93 for a final mark?

Hi guys, would any of you happen to know where I can find the rubric for each English module, but more specifically the core texts contained in that module? I know it exists somewhere on the BOS site, my teacher gave us the rubric points for one topic before she left the school. I've had a look...

Raw mark cut-off? I can't really say. It would depend on the exam. But close to 90, maybe 88ish? Btw this is just what I think. Our first place got 89 so we got kind of capped but I got 80 flat, SDD was my lowest mark.

I just saw your message. I wasn't the greatest at SDD. I actually found myself struggling in some areas. But seriously, the best advice I can give you is to make sure you know every single dot point in the syllabus but more importantly, under which chapter/heading and topic it comes under. I...

Yeah I was happy with it considering the percentage of people that actually do get band 6s. I'm doing architecture at UTS now.

Ended up with an 89 in English. Just missed the damn band 6 :P

Hope your friend gets in. :) Which o-week sessions are you attending?

If you wanted to do arch and wanna transfer why don't you look at transferring into B Design Arch?

Oh right I didn't notice that it said it on the timetable. Just saw mine, first lecture 27/2 - 9/4, 30/4 - 4/6. Umm what are the o-week lectures? I'm doing B Design in Architecture :D

Yeah I know someone who's going to UNSW and said they start Feb 27. I always thought uni would start in late feb / early march but then I saw this. According to that, I start on the 9th of Feb (Bridging courses are from 7-17 of February). I probably have something wrong then idk.

I enrolled for maths (2u), the morning sessions. But since the UTS news bulletin says uni starts on the 13th of Feb, the bridging course will clash with my timetable so I may switch to night sessions (even though I have a tutorial that finishes at 6pm). Which course are you doing?

I've never seen these before. I was referring to the Performance Band Descriptors in the statistics archive. They show the percentage of the candidature for each band for the respective course. Here's the link - http://www.boardofstudies.nsw.edu.au/bos_stats/hsc-pbds.php
