Nope, definitely possible. To do combined music/med you only need an atar of 99.6+, instead of the 99.95 required for the other combined meds at undergrad USYD. However, there's a music audition that needs to be done to get into that, so you do have to be a pretty talented musician to get in...

Haha wow really?! Well, I expected Ruse to be first for Maths but remember a few years back when SMH did the same rankings that Ruse was third for English. Guess you guys improved =D

Hey, I was wondering whether anyone has the data for the top schools by subject i.e. top schools at Maths/ English? I heard SMH did one for the top few schools in English and Maths but I didn't buy that day's paper and its not available online. Would anyone be willing to type it out?

I hope the old posts aren't lost forever or something, a lot of those threads were really useful

Is this Diab? How is she? I've heard from some of my friends they don't really learn too much due to class size...?

-shrug- I've got the 5800. And yeah its got a few bugs, and I've had my music player crash sometimes and I might hard reset soon but honestly, the problems I have are fairly small. The biggest problem I have right now is that the call button won't bring up call log anymore and that my calendar...

Well, essays have always been my strength and I usually get full marks, or at least very close to full marks for them. My creative writing on the other hand, is always rather mediocre. Not terrible, but just not brilliant e.g. 13/15. And it's not like I haven't read the creative writing tips a...

Very cheap tutoring though :) And I still learn heaps, honestly.

Just wondering, since you offer English tutoring, what was your English mark?

Do you guys reckon its worth buying Year 12 Cambridge 3U, because it doesn't seem to cover as many topics as Cambridge 3U Year 11 :S? Or would the first two fitzpatricks be enough?

I don't know I guess I'd always done really well in French, and had been coming first, but now that it's not chapter test-based and more skills-based I think I'm struggling and I'm also doubting whether I'm that great and if I should continue French. Had our speaking text recently and was...

Re: Truong's tutoring, any comments? You won't find he's too slow :haha:. It depends though what grade are you in? If you're about 9-10 you may find him a bit slow, but once you get to the harder 3u topics in yr 11 it's pretty ahead :) Although if you were want SUPERSPEEDAHEAD, go to guan. But...

Hm, the guy's alright considering the place is so cheap. But I honestly don't think he works as fast as he can, he's a bit bludgy and can lose control of the class. I prefer truong's style, where the class moves at a really fast pace and noone dares to talk and bludge like you can do at peak.

How much do you charge?

Re: Australian Mathematics Competition oh ffs my firefox crashed halfway through my reply. stupid thing. anyway um, are we sure we are talking about the same question here? The one I'm talking about definitely was asking for the number of lines in the pattern, not the number of hexagons. So...

Wow I was looking various economics related posts up and the essays you write in eco exams are seven pages...? SEVEN PAGES? :bomb: Oh my god, that's so much...

Is the workload that hard? What does it involve? Just memorising theory? Do you have to do extra research for your essays e.g. read business articles etc, find statistics to support your essays? Would I need to be REAAAAALLY up to date with the financial world etc? And for the essays, what...

Re: Australian Mathematics Competition Sorry I don't really understand your working? The solution to the hexagon question was 231.... Did you misread the question? The question was not referring to the number of hexagons in pattern 11, but the number of matches/whatever required to make the...

Sorry to revive an old thread but I'm a little confused on what the "Mark" column means. Is that the maximum mark given for that year for that subject or like the maximum mark attainable but not necessarily was reached? If that makes sense... And what does it mean by raw marks are scaled? Is...
