I'm dubious if anything qualifies as interesting, but I only really have proper time for the first two atm. *Cheerleader *Debater/Public Speaking *Dance (Ballet, Pointe, Jazz, Tap, Contemporary, Lyrical, Hip Hop LOL) *Drama *Violin (but I totes sucked)

I don't recall chem having a compulsory tute attendance, I think it's more for your benefit to go to them. Just don't miss anymore!

USYD has a well regarded teaching course, many would argue its the best place to do teaching in the country. I have many friends who have done the Bachelors/Masters in differing aspects of teaching at USYD and all loved it! Bachelor of Primary teaching has a cut off of 88.05, but remember it...

^I always did to do lists personally instead of time. Write down a list of 5 things to do, get to have a reward (in your case gaming?) once I ticked them all off. If I made a longer list, better "reward". It's really admirable you want to turn your situation around, and I know many people who...

Extension English runs differently from Adv English, it's pretty analytical stuff typically and in Yr 12 you do one module for the year with three core texts and your own related texts. Yr 11 they make you study a lot of different texts for a diversity factor. On Extension 2 English, don't...

re: Guide to choosing subjects for Year 9 & 10 Lol so long ago for me, but some schools do get to pick three and mine was one where you did it for the two years and didn't get a swap in yr 10 like some schools. I would really urge you to do whatever you want, you have all the core covered in...

I have friends really loving Geology at USYD! Great subjects with good field school excursions (many of my friends went to NZ before semester started). I'm in Geology's twin (Geography) but yeah, if you have any questions you want me to pass on, let me know :) USYD Geoscience faculty has a lot...

The cut off is low 90s at UMELB (unless you are rural), and you shouldn't dictate what you want to do by the cut off points. Also you could always do Adv Sci anywhere in NSW if you wanted something 'higher cut off' desperately. ATAR points are never wasted. If your number #1 course/location is...

It's a mix of strategics I think-knowing when to do a normal unit to get a higher mark or when the Adv unit will help you kick up. For instance, doing Adv Geos for me was great because I much prefer independent assignment work which played to my strengths. Or when the scaling was in action, SSP...

Heya, I've been in two revues, but one was a college one lol so I'm just going to talk about my great love of the SciRevue. I did SciRevue last year and it was extremely fantastic, the cast was like one big family, the socials are very fun. The rehearsals are once to twice a week depending...

Nah you don't have to, you can do any level of maths in adv sci as long as you check the first years maths unit box. Considering you are finding it a bit fast/overwhelming and aren't doing a math major, I would recommend normal, especially if you are juggling other SSP/Adv units. As a first...

There is a possibility, but with the current rank/school rank, you'd probably be hitting 88-89 unless your school is particularly English strong for its rank. (or your cohort is stronger) That said, if you up the anty for externals and push those essays up a mark, you could get B6 :)

Needs for artificial blood: -Worldwide blood shortage -Some donors ineligible to donate due to diseases -Have to be cross matched, receiving wrong blood type can be fatal -Difficulty of storing fresh blood -blood can obtain infectious pathogens, testing blood is costly -Short shelf life, red...

One really has to know the verbs and the structure of how to answer in HSC biology well. I think knowing what to do with the verbs 'Evaluate' and 'Assess' were most key to my success :)

I don't find the content of bio an issue in HSC, I found other subs more content heavy. But I have a good memory and genuinely found at least the Yr 12 course interesting :P For it to be my best subject, the amount of work didn't feel like work because of the pure enjoyment factor. Blueprint...

Oh if there are giving specific dot points, make sure to specially focus on the RHS column dot points as they are often what prac exams are drawn on. You must know each part of an experiment (Aim, Hypothesis, Method, Conclusion, Independent versus Dependent varaible etc.) Know all your rules...

It doesn't really matter as long as you have sufficient time for them all. I used to do it in order for Paper 1 iirc-many people swear by doing the essay first though because they are worried about running out of time (I find this is more rote people though). I personally liked to do it in...

Are you planning to do your Adv major in mathematics? If so it is worth doing the first year Adv units. But if you are Adv majoring in something else, you may find normal maths sufficient.

Re: Attempting a different topic in the HSC exams for Ancient History than what was s That is false because they do not have your school on your papers, so you can attempt any question you want in the HSC. I have heard of a BoSer getting into a fight at a schools' trial level on this front...

Re: Attempting a different topic in the HSC exams for Ancient History than what was s I'd personally stick with what you've got if you have to do your trials on the set topics...otherwise you'll have no feedback on how you're going in the topic and also self-teaching and sourcing resources from...
