    Benefit of referring to suggested answers

    Going through past chemistry papers from other schools, I have come across the "possible answer" category in the solutions. This is also in HSC papers I believe. My question is, to what extent is referring to these answers and being really conscious of them beneficial? I feel as I go through...

    First assessments ATAR estimate

    Okay that is probably true. I just think that through year 11 I had times when I ranked 1st and times when I ranked 10th. So from that logic I came to the conclusion that some of my first assessments were an inflation of my ability and others a deflation. Mainly chemistry too high and english...

    Tips for year 10??

    I disagree with people. Most of the time year 11 is considered the year to get yourself ready for year 12. But if you spent year 10 getting ready for year 12, then you would absolutely dominate. Accelerate in maths, don't waste time with the subjects you aren't continuing in, study ahead with...
