My school isn't too good at physics either. We only got 2 band 6s as well last year. I wouldn't mind getting a high band 5 though. Physics is quite a difficult subject to perfect.

I hear this from so many people but no matter how many times I hear it, I'm still going to end up panicking. I don't want the thought of relaxing and then doing badly in my assessments as a result of that. On the other hand, I did think the school certificate was a big deal. Now that I look...

I'm alright with my timetable. I do wish it was a bit more spread out but I'm just grateful that I don't have 2 exams on the same day. It seems strange that they would give us a day between the English papers. I was reading someone else's post and they said it's like they want us to "recover"...

Our school actually takes pride in that. We even have little pink elephants stitched onto the back collar of our jerseys. Our school doesn't seem to understand that it's an insult...

I liked the old senior uniform better!! Our senior uniform now have pleats in them so you have to keep fussing around with the fabric. The old junior one was terrible though.

I'm sure quite a few of my teachers are well aware of this site but not willing to share it with students. I don't know if they actually read what people are writing on the forums but I know for sure they discovered the resources here. A few of my friends know about the resources as well but are...

I'm probably going to get so much hate for this. I go to Cheltenham girls. Yes, the one with the pink uniform. That's us.

I do all of my set maths homework. My teacher makes sure of it because if it don't, she sends N awards home. She's quite strict but it really does help. For everything else...I don't. I do business occasionally but the textbook questions go into much more depth than you will ever need for an...

Oh my goodness that's an adorable mistake. I haven't asked any embarrassing questions to my teachers but I did have a friend who asked my teacher if he knew her name and he completely ignored her. We later went around the circle and he could say everybody's name except for hers then he just...

My cohort is insanely competitive. There's always people crying after they receive their assessment marks especially for English. Since my school is so harsh with marking, everyone in English gets around the 60s so many people end up with the same ranking. There is always someone who is really...

I actually get quite scared about this. I've been tutoring for quite a while and I keep hearing about people that rely on their tutors to do everything. I'm scared I'm one of them because you can't really tell if you can think for yourself. I am doing alright in the subjects I don't go tutoring...

Good job!! I also got 93% but I got it in 2u maths. I might get an extra mark if I'm lucky. I got 64% in ext 1 which I'm alright with. The average was 80% but I'm just glad I passed.

Business studies- 23/30 for multiple choice, 14/20 for short answers,17/20 for my extended response. 54/70 in total. I was really disappointed with my multiple choice and short answers especially since I knew all my work but didn't quite understand what the question was asking for. The...

From what I've heard, commerce at UNSW is better. I don't know many jobs involving finance apart from being an accountant. Finance is a really essential part in business(we should both know that by now :P) so maybe you could combine that with your interest in French and open up a business in the...

I'm so glad I dropped to 11 units. I was dying with 13 units. I love the study periods and watching everyone struggle right before the exam. It kind of makes me go "phew, at least I'm not doing that". Then people laugh at me when I'm panicking right before my exam so yeah...I guess it's all equal?

If you could be anything in the world and there was no such thing as an ATAR and everyone got the same amount of pay, what would you be? I would personally be a movie director or a professional dancer. What would everyone else like to do?

Haha, I actually burst out laughing at that. Yes, the maccas future is not too shabby my friend. Not too shabby at all.

Yes that would be hilarious.

Finishing school is a scary thought. I've done all my bio/physics notes before school holidays started, caught up on maths hw and done absolutely NONE of english or business studies. I can see why people say achieving a band 6 is difficult.

This past week went so fast it was insane. I haven't even finished watching Dr Who yet:(. I do think that break was needed though, especially since I could feel myself burning out during half yearlies. I was at the stage where I wanted to do anything but work. What work/studying is everyone...
