    Whats your fav subject right now?

    Biology - content isn't too dull, easy to remember. Questions are pretty anticipated; know your dot points and it's an easy band 6. Maths I like too in that it's probably the least subjective marking process. Creative writing in English - one marker may think it's a damn good approach, whereas...

    ENG Mod C related text Q

    Yep. Section III of paper 1 in 2009, I think it was. Sec.. "Understanding nourishes belonging ... a lack of understanding prevents it." Demonstrate how your prescribed text and ONE other related text of your own choosing represent this interpretation of belonging. The prescribed texts are...

    General maths...

    Either way, no matter the subject everyone's internal mark is changed depending on the school's performance in the external HSC exam. I think?

    ENG Mod C related text Q

    My teacher told once they specified "AND one additional text", not "at least one additional text"... If this is the case - you can only do one - so make sure you have practiced a more in depth analogy of your text + strongest additional. This is unlikely, but hey. They can ask anything (eg...

    general math question?

    May be a dumb question - but what's OP? I've seen it used more than once and I can't work it out! ~stress~

    Upcoming physics trials

    Okay so basically AC motors bamboozle the kadazzle out of me! Everything else I'm sweet with, I just can't wrap my head around this concept. I've read two different textbooks on it, and the teacher's class notes but it just does stick.. Reckon you could give a go explaining in more.. simple...

    The weight of external scaling..

    So nearing the end of year 12, I am still unsure on just how much scaling affects our internal marks on both an individual level, and also as the school cohort as a whole. Would someone care to explain? Let's say I am ranked 20th in English, get an average 75%, in a cohort of 70. Then in the...

    General maths...

    According to the report, yes it does scale down SIGNIFICANTLY. However, some of the other scalings seem a little off.. 90th percentile in Physics, 47.5/50 (per unit), scales to 42.1/50? Hmm, this just confuses my perception of the ATAR process even more! D: All I know is that ATAR calculators...

    Which subject do you fear the most for the TRIALS?

    It just said which you FEAR the most.. Doesn't mean she's unprepared/going to fail them, just she's worried about them all.. Nothing wrong with that.

    CSSA- Biology

    Blueprint wasn't too difficult actually. If you knew your dotpoints you were right - there were no abstract questions really..
