To purposely perform bad in a subject is a risk you should probably avoid. This is because you never know what may happen with your other subjects. That said, you should also do the subjects you like. Based on that, I would advise to drop Extension 1 & 2 English and pick up SOR 2 (since you...

With conditional offers you need to satisfy certain conditions in order to actually receive an offer. It’s like “do this and that and you’re in”. Because of that you can’t take a conditional offer out of your preferences because you haven’t received the actual offer yet. A lot of conditional...

Unless UTS have some sort of special scheme/program which you can benefit from, they won't accept you if your ATAR is below 77 (assuming this ATAR requirement is the same this year as well).

Top 5/10 is desirable but it's not always the key to getting a 90+ ATAR. Marks are very important too. You should be aiming for 90+ in all of your subjects. That way you will easily secure a 90+ ATAR.

Fair enough

I'm sure you'll be fine.

This shouldn’t be true. But I think that at the same time if you’re taking an extension subject you wouldn’t be allowed to have 10 units because they think you might at some point drop your extension unit, which, if you do, will leave you with 9 units and thus make you uneligible to have an ATAR.

He can, but I'm taking into consideration any unexpected events where he would not be allowed to drop Chinese.

750 - 1000 maybe?

If you can drop Chinese at trials like you're saying, then I'd suggest focusing on your other subjects and giving Chinese minimal attention/effort. It's essential to ensure you can do well in your 10 preferred units because even if circumstances arise where you can't drop Chinese it will most...

My bad. I believe that's the case because society approves of it overall (including Christians and non-Christians), which reduces/eliminates a Christian's feeling of "guilt" of not sticking to the actual perspective of Christianity (and in other cases even convinces those individuals out of what...

How can there be Christians values on homosexuality when the religion itself rejects it? Just because a number Christians choose to support a particular concept doesn't mean the religion does. That's right, thanks for that. The point I was trying to make there was that divisions complicate...

Absolutely, it is against Chirstian values to attack others based on their opinion. Instead, we should respectfully listen and respond (which is something a lot of people fail to do unfortunately). It is worth noting that there is a difference between being opposed to a person/group of people...

Religion can be already considered irrelevant in today's society (since more than 65% of Australian population says religion is unimportant). Whether religion is redundant/needed is dependent on one's personal choice/decision.

Whether or not someone would be sent to hell is another discussion. This is because of the countless divisions in Christianity today relating to the core beliefs. There are concepts such as "Purgatory", which is a place where you are "purified" and made ready to go to heaven, hence judgement is...

Yes, Christianity is opposed to homosexuality, so are other Abrahamic religions. It's definitely not a pick and choose scenario. However, I choose not to argue this particular point because I don't want to cause any tension or offend anyone.

100% Also for clarifying potential misinterpretations (especially those scripture-related) that people may have.
