    Attendance record?

    They also looked at the number of hours you have done in each course. Their is a minumum like 100 or 120 hours or something to pass a course i think its best that you talk to your school deputy or principal.

    What to expect from James Ruse.

    They use fitzpatrick for maths, see if you can borrow one to study, i also recommend that you buy yr 11-3U cambridge mathematics(it covers 2unit) or coroneos 3unit simplified (thick pink book) which covers the yr 11 course.
