This guy/girl/it speaks the truth, there's too much un-necessary stress placed on you which isn't worth it, get to uni you guys will be happy passing some of your subjects, depending on your course lol
5 bonus points, uni's like UWS give other bonus points such as living in GWS, and then EAS, dont think EAS works for UWS tho, but it could give you about 10 extra points, so you could end up with about 15ish
Past papers is the best way to make sure you'll do well and know the content right, also it can help expand your knowledge with the different variety of questions.
I myself never did past papers for english, sounds like a waste of time.
ALSO are you on drugs?
I dont have solutions, but our accounting textbook for UTS doesn't have answers either, and the UNI doesn't even provide us with the answers even if we do the homework, so you're not alone.
