Hey, a bit late to this thread, but better late than never haha! I'm Enoria, and I'm taking on 11 units into the HSC—Advanced English; English Extension 1; Mathematics; Legal Studies; Economics; and Multimedia. I'm seriously considering dropping to General maths because my marks atm are...

Got my AOS discovery creative and short answers notification today, which is in the second week of December and it's weighted 30%. Really really hope I don't fuck it up Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes it seems notoriously difficult getting a Band 6 for Standard when given the fact that less than 1% of the cohort each year in NSW receive it, but it's not impossible. This statistic is predominantly due to the fact that most of the high calibre English students take Advanced, and the...

I'm pretty keen to start tomorrow aswell, the holidays have been boring the shit outta me—I feel like I need something to work towards/do. Really hope I start off my first few assessments well though, because I know that if I don't, it'll throw me off my game completely. Also doing 1984 by...

Don't worry, it'll probably come to you if you persevere hard enough. I have an extraordinarily good memory usually too, but man, when I was trying to memorise 3000 words worth of essay and creative for my English Ext final, I didn't retain any of it whatsoever albeit going over it for the...

Hahahah dangg, I loved English Ext in the first week and I love it now. But, I loved Maths Ext also initially, then eventually dropped it out of a passionate hatred lol. Hated legal studies too, but now it's my favourite subject. Hated Advanced English, but now it's one of my favourite subjects...

HAHAHHAHAA IF THIS ISNT ME Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm reading my prescribed and possible related texts for Advanced and Extension English and consolidating my understanding of the prelim mathematics so that I'll have the fundamental basics down to power through HSC mathematics hahaah Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well, do you enjoy chemistry/science in general? Or do you reckon you'd be more interested in the business/commerce geared subjects? I did 3u maths and 3u English too at one point, and trust me, the workload is so much already that you cannot afford to carry the burden of having to perform well...

In my experiences, all-nighters work better because I can never convince myself to wake up that early in spite of the circumstances... the conflict of waking up compels me to make some rather irrational decisions lol. Also, for me atleast, there's something about working at 1-4am that makes it...

Oh god nopee, I'm the opposite—I've gotten full marks before for winging essay on the spot, but creative is a definite no no. I've literally devoid of that "creative flow", nothing comes to my brain! Hahaha well given that you have an abundance of creative juices in your brain, I'm sure you did...

Aw thankyou! And yeah I do, I have really bad mental blanks with it if I don't prepare—my creatives turn to literal shit. I can do essays on the spot if need be, but definitely not creative hahha. Even the idea of having to adapt to the stimulus puts on edge lol, I've thought about some...

Holy crap, this sounds literally like me!! I got high 90s in my junior years too, and it seemed so fucking easy to get 18/20 then but I've gotten exactly 80% for both Advanced and Extension, just like you! Hahahha I think it's because the standard of marking is much higher than it used to be...

My last exam is next Monday, English Extension x.x Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I've done all my exams, except for English Extension which is on Monday next week! I bombed biology for sure, I went in there and sat through the entire 2 hours doing nothing because I couldn't answer a single question. No, I'm not exaggerating—I'll be lucky to get 10% lol. Had economics this...

It will be of the person who came 98th externally (after the process of moderation and all that ofc) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah, but from my understanding, if you rank first both internally and externally, then the performance of your cohort/moderation process won't affect you. Hence my implication of 'smashing' the externals, as OP is already ranking first internally thus will not inhibited by these 'large gaps' if...

Well since you're ranking first internally, then you don't get affected by moderation as long as you smash your externals! If you do really well in that, then I'm definite a band 6 is within reach for you. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

HAHHAHAHAHA I KNOW RIGHT!! UGH I hate having to prioritise certain subjects over others, holy crap. Honestly I'm not even going to bother with biology tbh I'm already failing, may as well fail some more lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just got ours for our prelim yearly exams and holy crap, mine is an absolute nightmare - it's literally EXACTLY what I dreaded. I have not 1, not 2... but 3 DOUBLE UPS! I have English Ext on the same day as Multimedia, Mathematics on the same day as Legal Studies and Biology on the same day as...
