    Flunked 2U maths

    My tip is just practice and keep at it. That is all you can do, in the holidays do every question in the text book and just keep doing past papers even if there is no exam, because the more exposure you have the better prepared you will be for the HSC year and its assessments.

    Will having 10 units affect my ATAR?

    Having 10 units will not affect your atar, however you should consider what Son of Thatcher said as that can play a role in your decision. I only had 10 units and did fine but like many others I did one unit of my HSC in year 11 so having the extra study period did help.
