    What marks is everyone aiming for in English?

    95+ would be amazing, and i do think i have the ability to get those types of marks somewhere inside of me (although creative writing will drag me down), but we'll see. more realistically would probably be like 88+

    Having a job

    yeah, definitely. i just got a job a few months ago and i've found it actually helps me manage my time a lot better. now i'm forced to do things instead of just sitting around on my arse all day. whenever i have days off, i usually get nothing done. lol.

    Do you actually enjoy the subjects you do?

    yep, i pretty much enjoy all my subjects. i would have never ever considered in a million years to take a subject like physics or 3u maths just because they scale well. i would hate them and would suck at them so badly.

    Should the basic HSC English courses be changed?

    i would say Eng Ext 1. even though i dropped it, that course is more what i'd call "real" English.

    Maintaining your Year 11 rankings...

    at my school from yr10 to yr11, i've noticed the usual people who top everything sort of disappearing a bit... quite a few more people are emerging as the better students. your main problem with maintaining your ranks i'm guessing would be not getting lazy - thinking that just because you did...

    Competition at your school

    omg that's so terrible for teachers to ENCOURAGE heavy competition... my english teacher was just saying the other day that we all need to try and share our ideas and just not keep things to ourselves. she thinks it's quite unfortunate there's so much emphasis on competition in the HSC.

    "Study" Periods.

    i do 11 units and have about 11 free periods, but some of them are in the morning/afternoon so i just arrive late/leave early a lot of the time. most of the time i try to use them to my advantage, finish homework or read my novels, etc. although of course, inevitably, i do get sidetracked on...

    Competition at your school

    some people get pretty competitive, but i think people keep their competitiveness to themselves. i personally don't have a problem with sharing notes that we've done as a class, but when it comes to my own personal notes i get stingy
