    Crobat's Guide To HSC English Advanced.

    Welp, HSC season is nigh. Giving this a bump for those of you needed a bit of a boost.

    Freaking out about creative

    Firstly none of those things are mixed feedback - your advanced teacher and extension 1 teacher are saying more or less the same thing and your extension 2 teacher is expanding on that by telling you how to get a good mark. And no. All they expect is for you to not write a cliché and shallow...

    Uni's set own fees from 2016

    Not really sure to be honest. It's not as significant a raise as the Greens have been saying it'll be but it's still big enough to push basic 3 year degrees to cost almost $50k. It might be an indication of what the Go8's might be able to get away with but there are some Vice-Chancellors that...

    Uni's set own fees from 2016

    It might not be 2 or 3 times, but you can sort of gauge what the Go8s might do with UWA's announced increase of 30%. (source) But if you're a white male you should be okay in the end anyway.

    Any real-world 'smart' people feel really inferior on BOS?

    Smart people do not feel inferior when confronted with other smart people. Also ATAR is not a reflection of intelligence - nothing in the HSC is. Not in the slightest LOL Did that and there's really not that much to it... Depends how you're thinking about things, mate. I would consider...

    Are you studying BA? Please give advice!

    To learn something interesting tbh. I think I'll do one after my LLM if I have time or maybe after I retire at least. I really regret not doing an Arts degree. Business/Commerce degrees are the real joke. Business/Commerce students are easily 150x more useless and stupid than the average Arts...

    State Rank vs Allrounder

    I was in her primary classes in years 3,4,5,6 ;) neither am I but it's all about attitude man with attitude comes confidence, with confidence comes knowledge ----------------------- If I was still in high school I'd say on a personal level all rounders - I'd much rather see 10 units of 90+...

    Richest Australian worth as much as the country's poorest 2.27 mn

    And which post would that be? The post where you identified that some rich people actually earned their money through hard work and then only talked about Gina Rinehart from which you somehow went to definitively concluding the bold? Acknowledging one thing and then concluding another...

    Richest Australian worth as much as the country's poorest 2.27 mn

    I feel like maybe Gina Rinehart maybe isn't the only rich person in the world, nor does her situation account for every rich person in the world.

    Petition - ATAR Should Not Affect University Options

    1. I know you probably aren't inferring this in its entirety but a student doing "incredibly good" in a subject does not mean they are "incredibly gifted". 2. A student who does "incredibly good" in one subject or area of subjects does not mean they should be exempt from doing poorly in other...

    Yeah I don't think he means it that literally mate :haha: He's saying how stupid that is :haha:

    Richest Australian worth as much as the country's poorest 2.27 mn

    As far as I can tell, it's saying that 76% of people think the rich don't pay enough tax when their tax flagfall rate is already more than three times as much as the total amount of tax these 76% pay and even though the rich pay more than 133% out of the dollar that they pay which is almost half...

    Mental toughness

    Integrity and ego. Mostly ego :haha: Also the thought of swimming in the dollars and my future house.

    Richest Australian worth as much as the country's poorest 2.27 mn

    Man fuck this country, I'm moving to Dubai. Why do I have to go through 5+ years of uni and balance 15 years of working hard as fuck to get into my ideal lifestyle just to have some poor cunts who didn't want to do the same demand I get taxed even more when the flagfall rate of tax I'll have...

    Petition - ATAR Should Not Affect University Options

    That's neither necessary nor a good model of university entry. The reality is that not all students know what it is they want to do at university and so enrol in general degrees like Arts, Business/Commerce, and Science even or choose a degree that matches with their ATAR. It shouldn't be the...

    Petition - ATAR Should Not Affect University Options

    The thing is, career progression into the higher levels of management for example depend on your communication ability in all disciplines because effective communication is at the crux of strong leadership. That's why communication is the most sought after skill in graduates - What Employers...

    Petition - ATAR Should Not Affect University Options

    I don't think there is anything wrong with this model of high school graduation. I agree with these - but EAS I think should stay. Considering that students coming from lower socioeconomic backgrounds face poorer educational systems and have more difficulty accessing tertiary education as a...

    Arts/Law or Commerce/Law

    It depends on which discipline you want a career in though. If you wanted to do something other than Law, then yes Comm/Law would be better for that just generally. But if you wanted a career in law, Arts/Law stands just as well - the emphasis is on the Law degree and the application of Commerce...

    Who knows lol Probably because you can get 10k or 20k out of them before they decide to drop it :haha:

    Petition - ATAR Should Not Affect University Options

    That kind of just leaves it with like Med & Law though that would effectively utilize the interview. I can't see why a generalist degree such as Business/Commerce, for example, would/should have interviews - I mean it's no secret that the market is tough but the degree itself does not require...
