After digging around a bit, I've noticed many state rankers "two-time" tutoring centres i.e. going two places for a single subject. I hesitate to suggest this to my juniors who hope to get a high ATAR. It's expensive and certainly quite damaging to students' health as they become stressed so early on.

Ngo and sons has just released their HSC 2020 results and i can see quite a few people went to both tutoring centres for the same subject. I think they just go there for the resources.

i still do not know why someone needs to go to more than one tutoring centre for a subject. They can share resources with another student and save time/money right?

illegal. resources are useless without a teacher if they have no answers(preferably as an autodidact you would need worked answers for hard q's) lol.

if they were useless then coaching colleges would not make it illegal to share resources. I think the main reason is students do not want to study together. I know it's illegal but nobody would know if they want to share it.

sure you could get uses out of it.
but frankly doing problems that aren't marked by someone who knows their stuff or doesnt have worked solutions/somewhat full solutions is very bad for your average student who cannot solve enrichment level problems without spending unreasonable hours.

i'm pretty sure the only tutoring she got would've been for olympiad stuff

its rare for someone with such academic success to not recieve tution, shes probably really good at self studying or she just goes to a private tutoring that doesnt openly showcase her exam marks
