Between two great universities like USYD vs UNSW, I would say follow the money if you are generally like Sophie's Choice can't split the two. That said, you should never sell out for money if you really want to go to UNSW more, but considering it's the same course at both top unis I'm not sure...

OP is truth. Hard work and pushing yourself beyond barriers will always be merited. You can come from a smallest of comprehensives from the furtherest of regions, and still end up in a uni course mixing with all those kids that did go to those top schools in the end :)

Naw that's so cute :) yeah instead of going to a my closest capital city, I decided to go to move 7 hrs away knowing close to noone (noone super well anyway). And all the people I met this year were the highlight, where if I went and lived with people with my hometown/other people I knew in...

I hope this is trolling. Firstly, shouldn't really be bagging out TAFE. Secondly, only 'low' ATARs are needed at many rural or less popular universities(50-70 can get you into quite a few courses). And if your ATAR was 30-50 ish, doing tafe and then progressing to uni is a great option. My...

Still accurate and good advice giving :)

Yeah, it doesn't because it's a conversion of HSC to the aggregate for ATAR. My estimate? ~91.8

Around midday :)

99.6 ish imho.

yes I do :) Good marks Solid, well done :D

Damn, do I spy two potential state ranks in Eng there? Well done :) Also mirin' all the other marks, especially modern! What do you hope to study next year?

strawberrye and rumbleroar are on the absolute money as always. I think it's really important to recognise what is a need, what is high priority and low priority. If you have something due in two days, you need to be working on it. Something due in a week is high priority. For a break, wasting...

Yeah definitely give it a shot, I think you'd have a good chance, if not SBHS, another selective. Being in a selective school environment would help immensely, but if you are not accepted, with drive and motivation you can achieve that ATAR at any school.

No probs :) I'm sure you will be :)

Hey y'all, Just want to say how all mega proud I am of you all for completing the HSC-it's all a bit like a hurdles race. I hope you all surpass your expectations, as I have had the pleasure all year of seeing you tackle and overcome a difficult concept, improve on past results etc. Also now...

Ouch that's mean asianese, who knew you were so exclusive?

Srs haha. He's not fb friends with you either iirc :spin:

Sometimes choosing to deliberately go where you know no one is great. Depends on the person. USYD has shops...it's also ridiculously close to Broadway and by extension, the Sydney CBD :P

You're in science right? The 'elective' slots can be another science elective...

Presuming it's a topic test, pull out some relevant questions for the past papers. If you're struggling with an area, you may have to go back to the textbook to get more comfortable with the style of Q and reattempt some harder type Qs of it again once you've got it down. I always liked to...

I'd never do a language as a WAM booster. Firstly, you'll lack the intrinsic motivation needed for languages. Secondly, languages are incredibly hard unless you have a flair for them. Thirdly, even the most basic language/starting level moves really fast in uni. Like they'd cover in a semester...
