But what's the point though. Is it to have one less subject to worry about in year 12, or why

yep, just by finishing the course 9 months earlier gives you a big advantage. during y12 instead of still learning new concepts in class, you now have a 9 months to revise, putting u at an advantage. that goes the same for any other tutor, but i just know that the specialist class finishes wayyyy earlier than other tutor classes

some tutorings im pretty sure u can do two years of math in one. peak allows their students to do year 8 and 9 math when they are only in year 8. peak is crap tho

Lol that sounds fun actually (don't judge me haha). But I think maths needs foundational development first. If you rush these foundations, you will be able to solve questions but not efficiently.

lol i can never find past papers for year7-10 english. probs coz usually it’s assignments rather than exams

agreed, without the basics the harder qs will be extremely difficult, well unless ur a genius of some sort
