First in a Course (1 Viewer)

[Survivor39]

For people who came first in the school in any courses, are you still maintaining that Number 1 position, or is some other people took over your Number 1?? And how badly are you being kicked??

 

[Newbie]

last time i got number 1 in anything was like last year lol

then i started the subject this year at 20th and crawled back to like 10th now

 

[MiuMiu]

Yeah Im still first in all of em except Adv English which was kinda a fluke anyway......we're pretty much all equal, theres not many marks separating first from last, but I tend to kick everyone in the trials so I guess we'll see.

 

[~TeLEpAtHeTiC~]

i was first in everything
but i did really really bad in my last religion 2U assessment and now i am 2nd
there is only like 10 marks seperating 1st from last anyways
i hope i cane in this trial...
get back my rightful position...
mwha ha ha

 

[~TeLEpAtHeTiC~]

ITS THE PRINCIPLE..i wanna kick ass!!!

 

[braindrainedAsh]

I was first in everything except maths in first term.... now I'm still first in some subjects, but I'm coming in the top 3 in all my subjects except maths extension.

 

[Golani]

I'm equal first for english with crazy competition basically me and this girl have aced every single assessment with the trials on monday so we'll c i'm so praying i'll come first!!

Business was third now second hope i can go well in trials and end up topping

Legal i'm first

Rest of my subjects i do outside of school so i'm bascially first but it doesn't matter anywayz

Instead of defending, i'm trying to take over the no.1 in maths, but it seems worthless markswise, and effortwise.. (he's far off me).

If only, every person above my rank breaks off with their gf/bf, gets a very bad headache, get stomachache, just before the trial...

where's my voodoo kit?

 

[Newbie]

jeebus everyone here is like dux of their school -_-

 

[braindrainedAsh]

Our ranks are so so close in all of my subjects. It's all going to come down to the trials. So I guess I should get off here and start studying hey?

 

[Newbie]

does your school have like speech night
where they give prizes and $$$ to people who dux each subject?

are you gona be rich at the end of the year?

all ur money are belong to us

Our school has a presentation day thingy if thats what u mean..not in money though, its Grace Bros vouchers but thats alrite....its $25 for first, $20 for second and $15 for third....plus $10 for every subject u come first in. I was ranking first in four subs last year but overall only came equal third in Yr11....walked off with $55. In the half yearlys, I lost my 1st in English (since Yr 9) and dropped to 3rd, lost 1st in English Ext and went down to second...however, at the moment...barring unmarked assessments...should still be ranking first in three subjects and in the top three for everything else. And I STILL can't get dux because of the science brain in the year~~

I was first in 4 of my subjects, but now I'm first in one (English), and 2nd in 3 others (by less than 2% in each) and I've always been 3rd in Geography...

 

[pri]

my school gives dymocks vouchers of high denominations, the dux last year got like $250

prize- 70 ish
certificates- 20
most improves - 20

so its profitable to get prizes , lol

Actually, yes. This is used by BOS to scale your mark ...

 

[pri]

how so?

Well I am not exactly sure, maybe Laz knows more, but apparently it isn't your (school) mark that is important, it is your rank, and how far apart your marks are (relatively) ...

 

[...]

yea, i think McLake is right...

so if ur doing average, try and close the gap between the ppl above u

if ur doing well, try and extend the gap

 

[Huy]

I'm only 1st for IPT,
but they're catching up now ... so i have to extend that gap.

I was only first for Advanced English for a few months, until I got my butt kicked

Now I'm top5 for English and there was, for a time, when I was equal 1st in Extension 2 English, now I'm off by about 2 marks on 2nd place.
