    How'd everyone's first term of yr 12, the HSC go?m

    English - 1st with 94 Gmaths - 3rd with 68 (lel) Ancient - Tied 1st with 86 Modern - ??? (Guessing tied 1st with ~90) Business - ??? (Guessing 1st with ~90) Overall pretty bad start to the HSC. I thought english would be my worst and gmaths would be my best and so I put more effort accordingly...

    Do assessment marks matter at all or is it just the ranks?

    The test was long AND difficult, with that said I did get every question I answered correct plus my year 11 course mark was 98% with the next person at around 85%. While I completely understand what you're saying, this was simply an off day for me, so i'm just relieved that it won't really...

    Do assessment marks matter at all or is it just the ranks?

    So if you rank first in the assessments, irrespective of whether it was with a 70 vs a 90, the mark gaps don't matter at all to you, right?

    Do assessment marks matter at all or is it just the ranks?

    Oh alright thanks, that's good to hear. Does anyone know how that actually works with ranks being submitted to BOS? I heard if you came first internally, your internal mark will be the top HSC exam mark and that will be averaged with your actual HSC exam mark to get your HSC result. Is that how...

    Do assessment marks matter at all or is it just the ranks?

    So I got a 75 on my first general maths assignment worth 15% (98 in yearlies), it was the top mark (I go to a 400+ school). While it was a fairly easy test, I just didn't have enough time to finish and missed out on a lot of marks. Will this low mark matter at all (and in what way?) or is it...

    How the hell do you make study notes for english?

    I've been sat here for the past couple of hours trying to figure this out. For all my other subjects there is a syllabus with content points to expand on and there are your study notes, however, English does not have this. What kind of stuff do I put in my notes? Should I just be putting...

    Study Notes: More or Less?

    Perhaps, I could have 2 versions, the first one with paragraphs, and the second one with key trigger words which I could make at the end of each term, what do you think of that?

    Study Notes: More or Less?

    So I was just scrolling through the resources and found that the study notes on here are really condensed and mostly key words so I was worried that I was doing it wrong as I tend to summarise a concept in a paragraph in my own words instead. In business studies for example I wrote: • The...

    History subjects - Thoughts?

    I do both ancient and modern and came first in both for prelims. I find learning about the past intriguing and so I enjoy the subjects but there are times where I wish I would've only chosen one history because it kind of gets repetitive and I feel as if they are useless subjects in regards to...
