    Band 6

    I guess it is beneficial that some schools (JR, Baulko, SBHS etc. etc.) do not offer Standard English as a course.

    Band 6

    only like the top 50 in the state, or something ridiculous, get band 6 in Standard English. What school do you go to, and what exactly are you ranked in that school out of curiosity?

    Syd uni lectures, who went?

    yeah, I learned how to be the most successful Pocket Monster trainer in the entire world.

    English Paper 1

    mever heard of that one before. I'm gonna take a blind guess that it has something to do with Paper 1 being common for Standard and Advanced students and used as a basis of how well you compare against Standard and other Advanced people, as well as a way for BOS to fairly distribute marks/bands...

    Catholic Studies

    Yep, it doesn't count towards your ATAR or HSC which is why you don't have a HSC exam for it.

    half yearly reports?

    wow that sucks so much lol. Take it up to the principal if you have proof. Get your whole class to appeal for it or something.

    CSSA Trial Papers

    3 terms, 4 modules (except for Maths) I guess... Like for English we 'rushed' through quite a bit just to get everything done before the trials.

    Need Help !!!!

    I think the average scaling received from all candidates anually is roughly something like: MX1 > Chemistry > Mathematics = Economics = English Advanced > Legal Studies > Biology > Anvient History > EES = Business Studies

    The Official 2010 Pre-HSC/Trials Rage-Quit Thread

    I whole-heartedly agree with 'fuck you conics' actually. It was the difference between 4th and 2nd place for me.........

    half yearly reports?

    well clearly you're not taking math 2 unit seriously. Don't know why you're asking for advice on 'how to improve your 2 unit mark' especially with that 3 unit mark and rank.

    CSSA Trial Papers

    "It is the expectation of the CSSA Executive that schools will NOT modify any paper. The one exception to this is where a topic on which a particular question is based has yet to be covered in class. In such circumstances an alternative question should be set and presented to students on a...

    Preliminary Subjects. Uni Courses. HELP!

    School ranks are just there as an indication of how strong or weak someone's cohort may be, as your cohort will likely affect your HSC mark unless you're an outlier (first by a long way or last by a long way). School ranks therefore are used as the basis of ESTIMATIONS of ATARs. School ranks...

    CSSA Trial Papers

    All schools using the CSSA trial exams take place in weeks 3 and 4, and I don't think any school will / should change it for the entire school (i.e. only for particular students who might not be able able to sit an examination on a particular day).

    Making own study notes VS using BOS's

    Most effective thing in order: 3. Downloading past trial papers from various schools, CSSA things (for yr 12) and past HSC papers from BOS. Buying good work books such Creelman, Success One, and other past paper books / practice questions by topic. You should select questions you struggle with...
