Re: 回复: Re: 回复: Re: How did you go in your half yearlies?

how can you say that though?
i never went around with a high uai aim in case people'd like to flame me
maybe exhaust wants the same
xD
He talks to me a lot on MSN and from what I know(we both know a bit about each others personal life) he never said his UAI aim of 99.95+. He told me that he does want 99+ though.

hey, what happens if you've failed most of your subjects in the yr 12 half yearlies? can you still get back up and do well for the HSC? or are your HSC marks affected by this?

yes, you still can but it doing well in the half yearlies can make it easier to achieve a good UAI.

My marks and ranks:

Maths 2 Unit 94% (1st - won't count)
Maths 3 Unit 90% (2nd /13)
Maths 4 Unit 70% (3/4)
English (Adv.) 72% (5/32) ~ (thank goodness task only worth 10%!)
Legal Studies 94% (1/13)
Physics 85% (1/12)
Chemistry 84% (2/12)

I do the 2 unit exams just to see how I am going, and to have a 'safety net' in case 4 unit comes back and bites me!

The majority of people who post up their results here are ones who have done well. Everyone else is just too ashamed to do so.

Re: 回复: Re: 回复: Re: How did you go in your half yearlies?

My results resemble yours hermand, except I failed for the first time in the HSC in 3u maths (ranked 8/14). Even though my term 4 ranking compensates this, I can't become complacent again. I've also had hand tremors for a while, panic attacks and psychological breakdowns which I'm trying to recover from...I hope this makes you guys feel better:

Chemistry - 35/50 - 70% - Don't know rank, but I've completely lost it from my 1st ranking in Preliminary.
English - Finally edited 18/20 (either 2nd or 3rd), 17/20 (up the top somewhere).
Biology (Assignment) - 42/50 (3rd so far).
Biology Practical - 35/50 - tied 4th.
Physics (Assignment) - 21/25, 20/26 (2nd or 3rd).
Physics Practical - 28/50 (I am no good at practicals :(, and I was away on the day they did the striation patterns (worth the other 40%)). FML.
4U Maths - 2/6. I wasn't expecting this... Even though my ranking of 1st is gone, there is still room for improvement.
3U Maths - 8/14 as I mentioned, with a fail 46% mark. Everyone in my class was shocked when I told them. Even some of the top people failed as well, and there was a squeeze in 50s and 60s marks, besides my friend who got 80's%. So there's still hope...
2U Maths - Came 4th. Didn't take it too seriously, and this was my best result percentage wise.

If results haven't been going good for you guys, don't worry about it. There's still a long way to go for improvement...Just don't let it get to you. But now I know that my chances of my UAI aim is completely gone...Ugh :(.
I've been having problems with panic attacks and such too, but mine aren't triggered by exam stress x_x I got 68% economics 66% legal studies 70% business studies 48% english adv 92.25% gen maths I know my marks were shitty, but i was suffering the flu, an allergic reaction on half my face and a nervous breakdown at the time of my exams >.> Hoping to raise all my marks by atleast 5-15% I'm glad i passed economics though, its the first assessment i've passed all year x_x
