Don't cheat yourself

Don't cheat yourself

Lol if you think there's cheating then there's something wrong with you. There's a reason why there's an EAS Scheme, and it's for those that have had problems in their life and has affected their studying, you're probably the spoilt one in your family and has a high class life.

quite the opposite my friend

 

[MilkyCat_]

What do you mean by this?

Only use EAS if you believe your studies have severely been affected by something out of your control. The system has been exploited in the past and will continue to do so.

Does he actually mean that? Jesus Christ, I can't believe something so stupid could come out of someone's mouth.

@MilkyCat_ Believe it or not but the EAS scheme isn't just for private school kids claiming they have ADHD.

It's for people who have suffered a disadvantage through the HSC. E.g. if that girl's dad didn't die this year - maybe she would have done better in the HSC. Or, if that boy wasn't dying of cancer maybe he would have done better. Or, if that boy wasn't homeless for half the HSC, maybe he would have done better. The examples go on.

Count yourself lucky that you haven't had to experience any hardships mate.

You sound lovely
Inbox me if you would like to know about my hardships I have experienced in the past year x

 

[MilkyCat_]

You were the one that generalised every single person in this thread and pretty much said we were cheating yourself and I'm assuming the system.

Good for you, I'm sure you know that more than 1 person can experience hardship in the HSC...

Thanks for the personal attack but I'll continue.
I didn't 'generalise everyone in this thread' if that's how you want to put it. Yes I did make a 'general' statement but I never directed it at anyone? It is well known that people exploit EAS and if you were doing this, in my opinion it is wrong. And once again for emphasis 'I DID NOT DIRECT WHAT I SAID TO ANYONE IN THIS THREAD'.
lol

 

[toshhiba]

yeah i agree lots of people exploit the EAS scheme which is just bullshit..

personally i hhad a lot of shit to deal with for the past 2-3 months and I am clinically depressed.

I dont give a shit about anything anymore and didn't even hand in my last assignment.

 

[Nekoccino]

Hmm, well it's true that people exploit EAS, but it's there for a reason!

Shame to the people who do exploit it, but I'm definitely applying for it due to my own personal reasons.

I'm moreover glad about even having the option of support!

I myself wouldn't exploit it.

 

[astroman]

You can't exploit it, you have to provide documentation.

 

[Nekoccino]

Yup!
As long as you have the documentation, then you're covered

You can't really exploit it, the documentation is quite formal.But well I assume that that there have been cases of doing so..that's probably why people think so?

I've heard about provisional complaints on the actual hsc day though.

I doubt they acknowledge them, people do vomit and pretend to have a sore arm or something to get out of doing the exam in hope for more study time or to get access to such schemes but those people are stupid.

 

[Nekoccino]

Mmmmm, except I actually to have pretty severe RSI but yeah those people really don't know when to stop..sigh.

Something like this.

 

[keepLooking]

Is there a point applying if I am only eligible for 1 ED code?

 

[astroman]

Is there a point applying if I am only eligible for 1 ED code?

yes, there are thousands of student's applying for courses, 1 point can play a big role in deciding if you do or don't make the cutoff.

 

[nerdasdasd]

I applied for EAS and had personal issues (was seeing a counsellor ) when I was doing the HSC.

@flop

No doubt some people cheat the system , but you can't put everyone in the same box

 

[Swaan]

I wasn't putting everyone in the same box lol? Milkycat was.

Taking it so personally, relax
Matter of fact is some people do try to exploit the eas scheme, but obviously not everyone. Pretty sure milky was addressing the minority who do/were intending to. But if it doesn't apply to you then great move along

 

[mandog97]

wot is EAS
