    1 on 1 HSC Tutoring | 99.80 Dux Of Penrith High 2019 | 99-3U 98-4U 4 Years experience|

    Was tutored by Nav from late yr 10-12. Highly recommend. Definitely one of the best maths teachers I've ever had. He always explains things clearly and is also incredibly encouraging. He'd pick out great questions and could always provide an answer on the spot. Every lesson was prepared and well...

    HSC Maths Exam Gets an F for Failing Our Students

    Yes. My parents put in immense effort to bring me to Australia so that I can avoid the educational pressure in China. Even if you don't get an ATAR here you still have a chance to live a decent life and make your way up, and that is what is good about Australia. TAFE is not the end of the world...

    HSC Maths Exam Gets an F for Failing Our Students

    Absolutely both cultures can be critiqued. I studied in China for Year 1 in Year 2. You are romanticising the system. You have no fucking idea what it's like to be a six year old kid waking up at 5:30am and sleeping at 11pm because of the sheer amount of homework the school gives. That is not...

    I've long accepted I'm not getting the ATAR I wanted before.

    HSC Maths Exam Gets an F for Failing Our Students

    Just because you don't 'feel stress' doesn't mean others don't, and it doesn't make you any better than everyone else. It doesn't sound 'nerdy', just comes across as rather self centred and ignorant. You seem to have a narrow mindset about what education is supposed to achieve. Based on your...

    HSC Maths Exam Gets an F for Failing Our Students

    The maturity argument lies a bit flat. You are viewing everything too much from an academic lens. I have friends who specifically chose TAFE because that is genuinely what they want to pursue. They have, in a mature manner, made the choice to not play the ATAR game, and I am sick of people...

    HSC Maths Exam Gets an F for Failing Our Students

    I was born in China. My dad had to go through the Gaokao. I must say, you have no idea how badly the Gaokao impacts on a developing teenager's mental and physical health. They put kids through hell. Students attend classes that go to the evening and get a lot of tutoring. It does not stop. This...

    Really nicely written and I wholeheartedly agree. As a Chinese immigrant that last sentence hit hard - if I had to stay in China and do the Gaokao it would've been really fucked up. The Gaokao quite literally defines students' lives there.

    I agree. I honestly had no chance with this year's paper. There was just an overload of stats and stuff like integration felt scarce

    What do you guys think of the Ext 2 Math scaling this year? Would it be better than previous years?

    It felt embarrassing. It cemented the fact for me that I had no chance in the first place against kids in top schools. I truly feel now that I was never good at maths to begin with. People are telling me that my ATAR will be fine but with these exams it's not looking good.

    What do you guys think of the Ext 2 Math scaling this year? Would it be better than previous years?

    Did papers today but felt so helpless. It felt like I could only just scrape a E4 raw on the papers. Fingers crossed for tomorrow. Thanks for writing this out man.

    What do you guys think of the Ext 2 Math scaling this year? Would it be better than previous years?

    I hope so. I'm just so demotivated after ext 2. Don't think I'll even get a E4 in ext 1.

    Doing HSC with ADHD any advice?

    Too late for provisions but can def still apply for EAS. They close Nov 22 I believe. For sleep issues try melatonin. I'm on it bc sleep issues from depression/anxiety. Def see if you can get ADHD meds too.
