    Maths advice

    That's a sticky situation. Personally if it was me I would definitely not switch to a 500 ranked school. Usually teachers are willing to let you into a subject if you show an absolute necessity for it and by that I literally mean beg. It's what I did, when I switched schools it got me into a...

    Handwriting - Is mine legible/acceptable for exams?

    First post I couldn’t read a single thing, just a few letters and like 2 or 3 words. Second post is a LOT better. First image I’m able to make out some of it whereas the second image I’m able to make out almost all of it. I suggest making sure you write like you have in the second post second...

    First year math

    1131 is basically like the high school 4U course. 1081 is a different kind of mathematics which you most likely have not seen that much. 1081 is definitely harder than 1131. Learn the content and do hard questions to prepare lol. You can find many past paper questions and all that on the Mathsoc...

    Focus on HSC band six results creating a 'perverse incentive', experts say

    Yeah it would improve the ranking system definitely.

    Coronavirus/Covid-19 Discussion Thread

    According to the survey I linked it’s actually a decent amount of people. Even though the percentage is not that much that’s still a lot of people especially for something that’s just a conspiracy. As for large groups I meant large only in terms of the number of people that believe in the idea...

    UNSW vs USYD for commerce

    Don’t choose a uni just because you think it grades easier. IF Unsw did grade easier for commerce which I’m not sure about, the same mark at both unis will hold different value in that Unsw’s one will be worth less. Going off speculation on how easy or hard they grade is no way to choose a uni...

    Can I be ineligible for degree that I'm eligible for in the 1st round in the 2nd round?

    iirc you can only receive one offer and that’ll be the highest one in your list that you’re eligible for. Once you receive an offer this round you will not receive other offers in the next round unless you decline the offer that you got. Put what you want to do the most at the top.

    Have my subjects doomed me?

    That is also subjective. What may be easy for one requiring very little 'brainpower' may be difficult for another thus requiring more 'brainpower'.

    Have my subjects doomed me?

    Difficulty is subjective. Your results depend on your ability, hard work and a bit of luck, and as seen above people can get 99s with completely low scaling subjects..

    Complex number questions

    For part 2: \text{First realize w is a cube root of unity. Hence}\hspace{2mm} 1 + w + w^2 = 0 \text{By drawing any arbitrary equilateral triangle a,b,c you can get each of the vectors by rotating another one by pi/3 or by 2pi/3} \text{In this case were going to have to rotate a side by 2pi/3...

    2020 HSC+ ATAR results discussion Thread

    Yeah my friend got a 96 with no band 6s.
  15. Drdusk

    Just a rant

    I guess the most extreme examples I can think of is that I got a B in Software design and dev in year 12 but got a final mark of 95. In English I got a C but got a mid band 5. So yeah A’s and B’s are not exactly a hard rule as to whether you’ll get a band 6 or not. It depends on many other things.

    Coronavirus/Covid-19 Discussion Thread

    Update: The coronavirus vaccine which has been given to the public in the UK has caused unanticipated side effects such as shortness of breath to those with allergies.. They are now telling people with those allergies not to take the vaccine.

    Failed First Year. Whats next???

    I've been feeling the same way since first year as well. I also managed the same Atar without that much effort and I'm doing decent in Uni with marks in the 80s but it feels like a chore to me. I don't really have the motivation/desire to sit down and do uni work, I just do it anyway and it gets...

    posting this due to panic lol srsly help

    For sure it affected the my final internal mark but I still did better than I thought at a mid band 5 which is what my goal was because I’m terrible at English. I was actually ranked 2nd so I dropped a few ranks. Can’t really recover the same rank because you gotta rely on the people above you...
