wow....... 5% dam tank...

I got an internal mark of 90 that's all :(..... I lost marks everywhere.. if i started studying earlier i would probably be a bit better.

I quit games, i quit fb , i quit social life ( I don't have any friends anymore i got ditched cos of hsc seriously) people think im a loser :(... and yeah life goes on...

i hope the HSC can get me somewhere and save me!!

I didn't come 1st in the trials btw. Another guy who has been competing with me throughout the whole year got 94/100 for trials although he did not so well in his assestment tasks in contrast to me.... He had flawless essays whereas mine were completely fail except my globlisation which got me 19/20.

This guy who got 94/100 watches the news everyday, loves politics, loves economics, debates on the internet about the government and such.. He has 100000x more passion then me for economics lol... and btw he is a capitalist :p


half the cohort is good (80's) and half is not so good :(..... welll.. im not good myself.. not yet.. I hope i can proove myself in the next 18 days for eco :).

I think he means each sub heading, e.g. (global economy) - Australian BoP, Exchange rates, free trade and protection

no god lol.. people on this forum are 100000x smarter than me. Possibly you are. I don't expect state rank since i don't deserve one, i procrastinated throughout the year and made a comeback in the last minute. It isn't fair for me to attain one such so easily :).

Im expecting band 6 though possibly.

I neglected eco also, since i was fluking every exam. But yeah eco is pretty difficult i don't enjoy it particularly :).

good luck! hope you achieve well!
