Would be so happy with these results:
Adv. English: 95+/100
English Extension: 45+/100
Mathematics: 98/100
Physics: 96/100
Biology: 97/100
Economics: 96/100
seems achievable at the moment, see how everything goes :D
GOOD LUCK TO ALL YOU 2013'ers !
I don't think they can actually force you to drop... all they can do is 'make a suggestion'. I come from a private school too and my teacher said they can't force you but they can certainly convince you to.
most of the good teachers work at strathfield and chatswood :) be ready for the work load if you're planning to do 4 subjects there and maths is for 3 hours whereas phys, chem and eng adv is 1 1/2. Other than the workload and I guess the price the teachers and tutors are really helpful and...
hey someth1ng, I saw your post on the '42 hours' thread and you said an extra one or two hours of studying is enough. Can I ask how many hours would you suggest daily? 3-4?
Thank you in advance.
maths 2unit: maths in focus and cambridge. Also my teacher said the new senior fitzpatrick one contains harder questions if you wanted to give that a go.
Biology: biology in focus ! I wouldn't suggest the biology in context (the spectrum of life) it has too much unnecessary info that doesn't...
hmm if you don't mind the distance the 'bellbird books' shop in burwood should have it as they sell practically all the textbooks for each subject.
here's a picture of it just in case you get to go :)
Can I ask when you dropped economics? If it was quite late in the year how did you study for economics? other than just reading the textbook and knowing the facts because some of the concepts are harder to learn.
ahhhh yeah I understand what you mean and daily i've been studying 4 hours but when it comes to prelims it's minimum of 5 hours but I guess it's more about the goals set (as you have said). btw thank you :D I hope you achieve your atar aim as well !
thanks deswa1 ! yeah I've been told many times that it is hard and the ranks I need to get but thank you so much for your advice ! btw it's only ranked 40 because of the small amount of people that actually do hsc since we offer IB
I don't think you can do adv maths for the combined course. but here's the site just so you can make sure http://sydney.edu.au/medicine/future-students/medical-program/undergraduates/index.php
It's not really undergrad because you do a course before it (economics, med science, music or adv science) in my case I hope to do adv science. The catch is that you don't need to do the umat to be accepted also after 3 years you go straight into med without having to do the gamsat.
