    Do you write or type your notes?

    Yeah I completely agree! Making pretty notes does not constitute complete preparation for exams. You need to find your own way of remembering your notes and putting the theory to practice with past exam papers.

    3U or 4U Maths?

    I did pretty much the same subjects. Advanced English will take up quite a bit of time, especially with the essays and follow up work. Bio and chem are content heavy, so yet again they will consume quite a bit of your time. I have heard physics is quite manageable. On the other hand, my main...

    advice about speech and being scared?

    1) Try practising in front of a mirror that way you can practice eye contact and your engagement with the audience. 2) Change up your tone and emphasise keep points. 3) Take a deep breath before you give your speech to get some oxygen flowing in the brain. Helps you relax.

    What is the best Economic textbook?

    Personally, I used Dixon as my textbook for basic concepts and Riley as a supplementary textbook to enhance my knowledge of the larger topics. Riley tends to have more statistics and historical content so if you are not settled on the concepts I'd recommend sticking with Dixon.

    How to remember economics?!

    Don't stress out! Keep calm and firstly run through the main headings in the HSC syllabus, e.g. balance of payments. Read selectively on the topic and pick out the main points, for instance, the layout of the balance of payments- balance on goods and services, net primary income, net secondary...

    Can there be a question in the HSC which...

    It is highly unlikely they will specify. Know at least 2 multilateral and bilateral trade agreements and you should be fine!

    Which one is more effective for Economics?

    Be familiar with your notes but dedicate most of your time to practicing the papers. After all, there are only so many ways they can rephrase questions that they have recycled for years.

    What do you study in Integrating Business Perspectives?

    Just read the chapters on fundamentals of business law and cover the main contractual issues. Otherwise, the rest of the IBP textbook is pretty useless. I'd say a safe bet is to skim through the lecture slides throughout the term. Also, work on the group projects consistently with your...

    Should we repeat year 12 if we dont accomplish our goals? Serious Question!

    Here are a couple things to think about... 1. Have you looked at other universities that offer med e.g. UNSW, UWS? 2. Do you believe that the estimate is less than what you can achieve? It is an estimate after all... My estimate was at least 2 atar points off. 3. Have you considered...
