Is it important to do well? I haven't been studying for it at all, and my parents want me to study for all those boring subjects like Geography and I don't want to do it.

The exam at the end of the year, much less stress, and you can just put your whole effort into that end of year exam, and do that much better at it, whereas instead you have to put your effort into exam/assignment, I know Year 12 is supposed to be a lot of work but do you guys every wish that...

So its very important to cover every dot point in the syllabus with self learning?

Also, I'm not sure if all schools follow the syllabus.

Like teaching things to yourself, do you have to self learn more than you learn from your teachers?

Um Ext 1 Math, still don't know what English I should do, Physics, Chem (I have decided to do both), and Ancient History and one 1 Unit course, and it's certainly not going to be Studies of religion cause I find that extremely boring.

I think you can only repeat if you Get lots of N awards and don't hand in an assessment, I have handed in all my assessments so far:)

Yeah, I've never cared too much about school work from Year 7 to now, sometimes I'm sleeping in class, daydreaming, not studying much for tests, can I ask if the SC matters at all? If you don't do well, can you repeat Year 10, can it affect the courses you will take next year?? Like do I need a...

Yeah, luckily I don't have parents that try to push you into getting a 99+ atar and getting into medicine. I know many of my fellow Yr 10 students whos parents are like that. Mine just want me to do my best, that's all anyone can ask of me.

I will be happy with anything with an ATAR of about 70 or above, just so I can get into something like Primary School Teaching. It's the best job ever; my mom does it. She sats you can never be out of work, and teaching a Kindergarten or Year 1 class when all you have to teach is like 2 plus 2...

So 2 hours each day on each subject (so basically ten hours a day) of study....??

Yeah, sometimes I think of not getting an ATAR. I mean, it so much stress; trying to make the perfect exam, making sure it is better than 90% of your cohort, etc, etc. Instead just get into uni some other way, but then I realize I HAVE to get an ATAR. I'm so worried about Year 12; there will be...

I'm only in Year 10, and you would think I shouldn't worry about this now but I do, because time goes by very quickly, and in roughly a year and 3 months I will be an HSC student. I remember last July/August, and I cannot believe how recent it feels and it's already been a year. How much work is...

Well, I know in Legal you have to write heaps of essays. And yes, I have looked at the syllabus of all of them. Also, is anything from the premlin course tested in the HSC end of year exam in any of the subjects?

If it gets better in Year 12, why are your dropping it?

Can't, our school doesn't allow 13 units, if you do wanna do more than 12, you have to do the rest at TAFE. Since I'm doing 3 Units of Maths, it complicates things.

Speaking of which, should I do Chem or Physics? I love them both to death, and I'm equally good at both, should I play a eni mini mini moo game? LOL.

You don't need Extension 1 Maths to do Physics, IMO. The maths involved is normally very simple, at least that's what I've heard.

But if doing if it is a huge disadvantage, we have the right to know. Not everyone will come on BOS to research to find out. I have learnt not to believe everything that people say, and do my own research; there are plenty of people who get spoonfed. I heard some people at my school saying...

Schools never talk to us about this stuff, they just say "Pick what you like and what you're capable of." They never tell us about the aligning of Standard English, I never even knew about it until I came here.
