    English Essay Response to Quote ??? How to respond?

    The first thing to do is dissect the quote and identify what it's asking - I would ask myself "In this essay I must.......(re-word quote/question in your own words.....)". Then, the biggest piece of advice I would give is to write your prepared essay and adapt it to the quote/question in the...

    Experiences with Art of Smart or TuteSmart for English/Biology tutoring ?

    I've heard good things about Art of Smart - but if you're looking for recommendations - I went to Marix last year and I would not have received the results I got without them... I honestly couldn't recommend them highly enough - the resources and after-hours help they provide is invaluable..

    Coronavirus University

    Haha so true - online uni is much less of a hastle... I heard most uni's would be at home until the end of the year (or until there is a vaccine - which could take a while)... Other than that, schools go back in Week 3 on the 11th of May and they are looking at staggering the year levels (with...

    English HSC

    It depends on how you want to structure your essay - there is no 'set' form. At the end of the day, it all comes down to how much you want to write, how you're going to synthesise and how many themes/topics you're willing/able to explore.

    ATAR Calculators

    School ranking really doesn't have an impact on how your HSC marks will turn out, it's your cohort. However, higher-ranking schools tend to have more "high achieving" students, so it will usually be accompanied by strong cohorts. Therefore your moderated HSC assessment marks will usually be much...

    Should I drop Legal?

    Hi! This seems like an interesting piece of advice. Before you act on the advice you were given, I'd consider it carefully. Do you really want to lose a subject? Having extra units has lots of benefits, most obvious of which is the fact that it offers an extra chance to improve your end result...

    MODULE A: How do I make study notes?

    Hey again! Great follow up question! When you're doing your annotations, try and find - and then filter out - quotes that are adaptable to multiple questions and ideas. This can prevent you from having to memorise 50 quotes from your text and instead settle with perhaps 10 from your text that...

    Blackboard

    UTS put something on their announcements.... If you're worried - you should email your tutor or subject coordinator maybe?

    ...How to make decisions about life after school...

    In the words of the wise Uncle Ben Parker, “with great power comes great responsibility”. Having the power to decide what you do after school is pretty awesome, but having that responsibility for the first time is also quite scary. While I can’t tell you exactly what you should choose to do with...

    Blackboard

    Hi! UTS had a similar issue - I'm pretty sure its a glitch on Blackboard.... As long as you've submitted it (and have proof of this), you should be fine.

    Looking for 4U New Syllabus Questions

    I'm not sure... I honestly just used textbooks for practice questions and they seemed fine. There is a website called 'Maths Stock Exchange' which might offer some extra practice if you want, but it's more for asking questions: https://math.stackexchange.com/

    Should i drop a subject?

    Hahahah it was hard... I 100% wouldn't recommend doing it... it's not worth it :lol::lol::lol:

    What would I need for a 99 atar?

    Honestly hard to tell at the moment... with the new syllabus and everything that's going on (COVID-19), scaling and the marking of exams will be very different this year compared to last year and previous years. Maybe try an ATAR calculator once your trial marks are finalised? Then you'll be...

    Are the dot point books any good?

    YES! They are amazing - especially for the weeks leading up to the exams when you're looking to figure out what you need help with... DotPoint Physics was a lifesaver for me :lol:...
