[123ash]

Hi viewers,
i am doing advanced english in HSC and my mean teacher is only passing me in this subject's assessments (giving me 55-65% per assessment). despite the amount of hard work i am putting onto this subjects.
i am scared i might end up getting a final mark in band 3 or 4. i am really concered, is it possible for me to get a UAI above 90-93 with this mark?. or put it another way has anyone got a UAI above 90 with band 3-4 in English ADV.?
i do:
PHYSICS
CHEMISTRY
4U MATHS
IPT
ty

i highly doubt ur teacher is giving you pass marks just because they're mean.
hard work =/= high marks

and yes its possible to get over 90 with a band 3/4 in english, especially with those subjects

 

[dp624]

yes you can

 

[annabackwards]

Yeah it's possible.

Just get high marks in your other subjects

 

[LordPc]

what these guys said.

although unless you can absolutely ace the other subjects in your sleep, improving your english mark would be the easier way to go

 

[solomarc20]

Yep. However, u should really b aiming for high Band 4/low band 5 in English and gud marks in ur other subjects...

i will work ultra hard for english.
thanks 4 the confidence.

"Me think is not very good selective school." If you were a selective school student, you'd most likely be doing Extension/Advanced English - ESPECIALLY if you went to a good one like Ruse, High, Baulko etc.

Anyway, back to the OP, really, english is only 2 units of your hsc.. as long as you don't fail it and you achieve good marks in your other subjects - you'll be fine.
