    James Ruse Agricultural High

    nop. in last 5 years iirc two students have been 'encouraged' to 'complete their hsc' elsewhere (ie. at a local high school) as a result of poor decision making on their part. one of them, yeah, did something to the network (piece of shit anyway don't know why you'd bother), and other guy...

    Is it possible?

    Assuming you're in year 11 right now, seeing as you posted in the prelliminary subsection, then yes, it is quite possible for you to achieve 85+. These first half-yearlies are the first of quite a few sets of exams you will be examined in, before the HSC. So you have quite a few chances to get...

    distinction courses

    I think it's band 6 + something from school I tried for it last year (did SDD in year 10), and I got 89, band 5. Couple friends got 90, band 6, in. And considering we did it in year 10, I don't really think our other marks would affect it, although they do ask you to submit your marks, to see...
