You should just sign up for this online tutoring site, sponsored by maccas so its free. http://www.mathsonline.com.au/ It's pretty good, covers all topics in depth. And the guy has a really soothing voice and often tells you you're excellent, so its morale boosting too (Y)

Yeah, i would say ext1 is definitely easier than advanced, and also a great deal more interesting. It is only 1 unit, but its definitely not a unit that needs a lot of work. On the other hand, i do ancient history and i love it, but if you want to do really well in it, it is actually heaps of...

Does UTS law not require a combined degree like UNSW and Usyd? Because another thing to consider would be what you would want to combine law with, such as Commerce or Arts, because that could actually affect what subjects you pick. And business studies is THE easiest course ever, most of it is...

Hey you're hot, lets hook up ;)

English extension is not a lot of content, ultimately its just one essay and one creative writing story. But the other ones are quite content heavy, yes. In my opinion, do drama or entertainment (i don't know what this is though). Because transition from year10 to year11 is quite intense, and...

It depends on the standard of your school exams compared to the hsc. Do hsc past papers, and see if you're getting 80% + in those, i think that's a fairly good indicator of whether you could get Band 5/6 in the hsc. (not considering scaling though)

If none of them interest you particularly, then just pick drama. Legal is a lot of content and learning, and assumedly since you're picking 13 units, you would drop at 1 or 2 by year 12. So if you don't find Legal interesting, just do drama cos its something that you would have fun at and will...

No, they don't pay HECS for you. But they give you the specified grant amoung for each month that you go to uni (around 9). So you could use it to cover your fees, or you could use it any other way you want.

Naah, delete your browser cookies if you get that thing where the old man tells you to subscribe, then refresh the page. And yes, if you don't know anything, then it will help. But if you aren't bothered to learn it properly, just read the dot point summaries for each section to get the...

Also remember that just because a course has a high atar requirement doesn’t necessarily mean that it is more intellectually challenging or for ‘smarter’ people, it’s just an indicator of how popular the course is. Since you’re passionate about what you want to do, it’s in no way a ‘waste of...

Here you go, all you'll ever need for year 10: http://www.skwirk.com.au/p-y Also, occasionally it will tell you your preview is over or some rubbish, in which case just delete your browser cookies and it will work again.

How is it too late? School cert is after hsc right? Even for hsc you can learn the whole years worth of stuff in 2 weeks. Just find some good notes online, i think there was this site called skwirk i used in year 10, has everything especially for history/geo- read them a few times and you're...

At the end of the day, internal marks ARE moderated depending on your school, and the higher ranking your school, the more likely your marks will be moderated in your favour. And a good cohort within a particular subject WILL make it easier to get a state ranking. Good for you if you have...

Well say you’re average at a high ranking school. Your raw internal mark is 80. But then you go to do the HSC, where you get a mark of 93, and its also the average HSC mark within your school. So then they would probably look at all the school’s internal marks and go, they probably had harder...

Awkward for you, cos you're completely wrong. Read this: http://secretsofhscsuccessrevealed.blogspot.com/2010/09/how-do-you-calculate-your-atar-part-1.html

Yeah, i'm talking about the moderation of the internal mark... Your external mark doesn't depend on your school at all.

Actually, your internal mark is scaled according to how well your school does. That's why its a massive disadvantage to be really smart at a school that is not very smart. Eg. Last year the average internal mark at my school for 3u maths was in the 70s, but everyone's HSC marks were really good...

Hey, i'm trying to decide on which of the big3 accounting firms to do a cadetship at, SO if anyone has heard things about which one is the best in terms of experience and support for uni studies, or any bad stories of friends quitting and why, it would be very much appreciated :)

I think there were 2 preferences. I put assurance various industries as my first choice, and assurance fs as my second choice which is what they interviewed me for.

I know of 2 people from my interview day who did. You'll know from your name tag, some people just had 'Assurance' and some had 'Assurance- Financial Services'
