Hey, I'm not 100% on how the HSC and scaling works but just to clarify: If you come first in internals and happen to come also first in HSC, but you have classmates who are scoring around 50~60% on exams, will it affect your final mark? I've heard people say that you 'get' your own mark if...

Hey! Recently I quit my tutoring centre for Extension 1 Maths and switched to a private tutor to cater to my own pace. However, I feel as though I don't get nearly enough questions for homework and I only seem to do textbook work. (From Cambridge) For people who have achieved a high E3 or...

Hey! There are probably many posts similar to this but I'm one of those many people that have 0 idea what career path they want to pursue after high school. Can you guys name some flexible uni courses or those with high employment rates? There isn't anything specific I want to do (Just want to...

Hey guys! I'm sure there have been many posts about this topic but there are about 3 weeks before Year 12 starts and I'm a bit nervous and I would like a 95+ ATAR, so I was wondering what to do during the September holidays and the December holidays, or just any holiday in particular haha...

Hey! Just wondering whether it is better to write or type out notes. I know that writing it helps to commit the content to memory but time-wise, it's probably better for me to type it so I was hoping to find out what the general consensus is. What do you guys do? :)

Hey guys Just wondering how to use 2 textbooks efficiently. Before the start of Year 11, I purchased the MX1 Cambridge textbook but my school uses another for classwork/homework. I've read great reviews on the Cambridge book and it's good so I want to do exercises from it but I've never found...

Hey so my AT3s are next week and according to my past science exams, it seems like I can never get more than 2-3/5 marks for tables and graphs in science questions. Can someone clarify how to draw them and what to label because it seems like these skill-based questions are always dragging me...

Hey guys! Current Year 11 somewhat struggling with Extension 1 Mathematics and now thinking about picking up Extension Japanese for Year 12 and dropping Maths. Not sure if it's a wise idea. I haven't received my ranking yet but percentages are around 60-70%~ after 2 exams. Would love thoughts...
