    Are preliminary results an indicator of how you will perform in HSC?

    My brother was able to step up his game back in 2010ish and i think he was about 52/83 for extension maths in year 11, by year 12; he was ranked 7th out of 83. But in saying so, he worked his ass off during his break.

    Your take on the Ferguson's incident?

    If a black cop were to shoot a white kid and the situation was similar to the Feguson's incident where the police wasn't prosecuted but rather defended and hidden, i think it would enrage the caucasian community as well. Not to mention they're dressed in camo uniform... i don't quite understand...

    Your take on the Ferguson's incident?

    But then again, none of us can say that we are honest, innocent individuals. We all have that darker side to us and i'm sure all of us have broken a law intentionally or unintentionally. In Brown's case was that his event enraged minority groups and that sparked a fight against the cops. If I...

    Your take on the Ferguson's incident?

    If some of your guys haven't heard the story of Ferguson http://www.abc.net.au/news/2014-08-16/police-shooting-confusion-reignites-protests-in-ferguson/5676130 As an educated community, I think it's always important to understand both sides of the story but common sense is that Brown's incident...

    Year 11 Subjects Selection and ATAR

    You can't really "set up" your atar, the only thing you can do is study hard and hope for the best. As you start year 11, a lot of your cohort will step up their game and year 10 is NOTHING like year 11. If you're aiming for a 99+ atar, you should be ideally in the top 5 ranks for all your...

    IPT is surprisingly hard. My mates do it and the content you have to memorise is strenuous As stated in my signature. I use to study extension 1 english but since it was off line, it messed up my schedule. Anyone know when we are going to select our subjects for year 12?

    Your school can accelerate however many units it wishes to. The only problem is that their accelerated students may not be able to cope, like a school who accelerates 2u and 3u may receives less band 6s from accelerations than a school that just accelerates 2u since it puts less strain on a student.

    Chemistry and Physics - If I forget a theory, I can most likely derive it from another theory using logic. English - The modules ask for the responses to give different formats of writing; critical, comparative, AOS; this has proven detrimental to me since I often get confused on what is an...

    How to start studying for prelims?

    Probably study 3 weeks prior to the end of the long break - this is the only time you can have an actual break without having the guilt of not studying. Revise a concepts; for me its just repeating the concept over and over then immediately practicing the concept with past paper questions. Then...

    Picking 3 Sciences, good idea? Or no?

    Physics and chemistry isn't as hard as they make it out to be in year 11, since you are just learning a few basic concepts and revising on junior years; it's arguable that english becomes harder than both chemistry and physics since they introduce AOS, mod a, b and c which forces students to...

    Picking 3 Sciences, good idea? Or no?

    Pros: You get into the same mindset for studying, your assessments will have a similar layout for all three sciences e.g. practicals, presentations. Opens yourself up to more university courses. Cons: Your assessments for sciences will most likely be bunched up throughout the year, its...

    Hypothetical: Should we switch English exams over to a digital format?

    As much as I dread english, I think that english exams should always be handwritten since pretty much all students are becoming more technologically advanced student, and it doesnt take that long to master writing 100 words per minute. However, I believe that past HSC students has a slight...
