jafar, i think u've misinterpreted the posts ... rahul did not just arrive in aus, he's been here for quite some time i guess. it was me who came here recently, last yr. and to answer u question, well, we too have a hsc system, but its a lot different from here.
but i had a clear idea of what subjects i wanted to do in the hsc b4 i came here - i chose the same subjects i had done for my yr 11 back in the mid-east chem, phys, 4 u maths, sdd n std english
the one main diff was that back there, we have no different 'levels' of study for maths n english. so i was a bit worried of whether i made the right decision in doing 4u maths n std english. lucky everything worked out to be fine

when i came here in yr 6, we had no idea of the selective school system. i did the test and would have made a couple of school, but my parents had selected the likes of james ruse, syd boys, etc....which i had no chance of getting into:mad1:

it is very hard to get it after yr 7 coz then u have to wait for ppl to leave the school and make a space for u. even tho u might b smarter than some in the grade, they can't drop some of their students for u.
i go to patrician bros, b'town.
and after about yr9/10 i decided i might aswell stay there coz i have developed good relations wid the teachers and the teachers that we had were not too bad either

Sory Rahul- i saw 'india' about 5 times and ' over there' and assumed you came here just before the hsc.

Somethin' special....
Is sor where they just drum God into you or do you get to learn about other religions as well?

No, in Sor 2 you learn all the indepth stuff behind religion.
For example, we learnt a whole lot about movements and schisms and a lot of negative stuff about the church.
Its a very academic subject. Scales ok too.

i found SDD hardest to study ..... COS MY TEACHER WAS NEVER IN CLASS !! we prolly had abt 1 hr of class the whole yr ! what a bludger !
i found bio hardest to study for. i didnt do anything for all of year 12 and i had nothing to study. that could be why. i did a study guide for 2 weeks b4 the hsc and ended up with 66 after getting below 40 each year so that was ok... i hated bio sand never showed so hey.

i suppose, but the hsc is about individual learning- study what you're not taught, no matter what ,so you're not disadvantaged

true. but then, study is one thing and asking doubts is another ... u dont expect me to know EVERYTHING right? in that case, whats the point of going to school ?there was no one for me to even ask those doubts to .....
