just wondering but does anyone else here actually have difficulty with majority of the Qs in the CSSA trial papers? I'm about to kill myself..........

Did 1 CSSA MX1 paper. Did the 2001 and 2002 HSC Chemistry paper. Currently trying to figure out wtf History and Memory is actually about to work on the visual assignment to be due week 1 back.....

Everything in the 'prelim' course of Mathematics and MX1 is needed for the HSC. Prelim English Advanced is just practice for the HSC course. Nothing carries over. Prelim Chemistry is good to know for the HSC course, esp. the formulas and reactions like neutralisation and reactions with metals...

94% for adv. eng.... crazily good.

good.

After the trials are over there is only like 2 months until hsc now that's scary.

whatever you do, don't give it to a 2010 hsc student.........

failing in senior science is very bad for you. drop senior science.

definitely books at school, you'll begin to lose everything and it gets very tedious to be organised with 10000 loose sleeves of paper and a folder. It's a wonder how I still managed to do my dot points for chem and bio. I ended up using books after like 2 terms.

it's only your prelim year, things shift when you hit your hsc year (trust me a lot of people will get shuffled around in terms of ranks). Come back when you get your half-yearlies HSC report. :)

Just try Mathematics first if you can to see if you can cope with it, as General Maths won't do you any justice. If you can't cope with Mathematics (2U) then it's probably better to not take up any maths at all. The scaling for General Math beyond horrible and unless you're really confident...

it's possible but almost unrealistic.

even if they did fail, the top student will still get 99.95... since atar is a rank.....

the ppl that don't post on BOS during schooldays. :[

I don't think you should worry about this, just let the UAC handle it. Plus its hard to say anyway, but if you're in the top 50% of James Ruse, you are, without a doubt, in the 99 percentile in the state. Also wasn't there someone in JR who get <70. If I had to guess, a person in the 50th...

BOS lets you do 6 unit of any science, but no more than that.

standard and advance english scales rougly the same, so a 90 in standard is like a 90 in adv. Except the aligning for adv. is a lot better than standard (for example, only the top 50 in NSW will get band 6 in std, while the top 1200 will get band 6 in adv). so it's harder to get band 6 in std...

yeah, I'm hoping the first 40% and the trials will at least make up for my atrocious results. good luck to you too! we'll both need it I think. also what subs do you do anyway?

winter sucks ass it makes me sleepy.

I'm freaking out about maths too... did poorly for my last MX1 and MX2 assessments (worth 20%, which means that 60% of my internals is complete). trials worth 40% it's do well or die for me.
