I am, in serious trouble, well not really just really need help, half yearlies are in so 12-13 days, and I've done everything to study!

Recently, I got 60% for my legal assesment
preeety bad, for you'se who get preety high, which I've read in your forum
course! I'd be so happy with, 99+ yes true?

But the fact is, what I do need to improve on, guess 5 hours study aint enough all night

Current subjects
Economics, Legal Studies, Biology, Maths Gen, Stnd Eng.
Mostly my worst subject is Economics.
Failing it hard, there is no easy way of getting it
Just only to study.

I only plan to get a UAI of 70-80 for all those students
who want this, but sersly I've stuffed this WHOLE year up
only half yearlies are 20% right, if I get 60% in all of them, and get 90% in all subjects in trails+hsc, would it mean i could get a UAI of 70-80? Anyone keen to help.

Well, if I don't do good, i could always do my HSC again at Tafe right?
well, my first assesment for Economics, last year, i got 42%, if i get 95%+ for trails and HSC, would it mean i could get a Band 4-5 in my final HSC mark?

Well, thats off my mind :D
ciao!

You should look at how they calculate UAI and HSC marks again because I think you get the wrong idea when adding 42% to 95%+ then divide by two. It doesn't work like that.

Economics gets scaled up pretty much so you'd better spend more time tackling it. According to Richard Chua (100 uai 07er), he doesn't get into any top 5, 10 or 20 of any of his subjects but he manipulates the scaling marks pretty well. Still he got 100 UAI. Everything is possible.

The amount of time you spend on studying is not as important as how effectively you study. REAL study in 1 hour is much better than roaming in 5 hours.

Of course you can do HSC again anytime you want unless you hate it.

You do 4 of the same subjects i do.
I have done a little better in my tests, but were in the same boat.

As long as you rank well internally, 1 or 2.
and get 80+ - 90+ in the hsc you will be ok.

A girl from my school last year ranked one internally with a mark of 75
and scored 90 in the hsc test

and finished up with a mark of 89.

If you come first in your grade in the HSC exam you get the first (internal) person's assessment mark. So technically you can get 0 in every assessment task and still get high 90s.

Pretty sure about this, correct me if I'm wrong.

half yearlys are worth about 10% - 20% of your overall assessment mark for each subject.
