    Notes :s

    How much of the syllabus should be covered these holidays?

    I agree with this. I don't really like reading ahead. I feel I gain a better understanding of it when I actually do it in class, and then revise later. :).

    Is it possible to achieve 99+ ATAR from taking both histories?

    how likely it is depends purely upon how good you are on the subject, not the scaling.

    How to do well in English?

    potentially problematic in that you don't yet have a concept and your texts may not fit the concept you develop. finding related material too early can also lead to the possibility that your concept may primarily stem from your related texts, as opposed to your set text, which is the wrong way...

    % of state over 90

    well, you have to consider that arguably the smarter portion of the year 12 body would be on this forum. this forum isn't really the best way to judge the frequency of atars. it is a rank after all, meaning there is somebody in the state receiving all those other numbers not posted here.
