Cheers, thanks for the advice! :)

My dad (a uni lecturer who has gotten degrees from 3 different unis) says that really, it doesn't matter that much where you got your degree/education. You most certainly have not ruined your chance for a career/future. Stay positive!

Thanks for responding to the first question! Well, all I'm positive that I want to do is pure maths (which is around 80 for usyd and unsw, but only if it doesn't come with the title 'advanced', but I'm not quite sure what the difference is between 'advanced' and not), but I want to do a double...

Hmmm, I think I'm leaning towards repeating. I could always just do it up until trials, and see if I'm getting a better assessment mark, and if it's shit, drop it and keep this old mark, right? That'd be great. I think I could do a lot better if I put effort in, because I came first in year 11...

lol, thanks for being so encouraging! :)

Yeah, I am leaning towards repeating. I'm just so sick of it by now though! I fucked up last year with the school assessment part by majorly slacking off (doing maths in physics class, never paying attention, teacher only ever spoke anyway, no worksheets, homework, booklets or writing on the...

Thank you! Yeah, only reason I'm doing it really is because parents think I should love it and don't want me to drop out. I think I might actually like it, too, if I had a half-decent teacher. Seriously, whole class complained about her and bugged head teacher about switching teachers, but...

I was accelerated in 4unit maths and physics. Marks I received from this HSC were: 4unit maths: 93 3unit maths: 97 Physics: 81 (may repeat it, unsure yet) I was just wondering about the atar I will receive next year, and how it will be affected by the group of students I sat the...

Got accelrated. 97 in 3unit maths 93 in 4unit maths 81 in physics :( (may repeat)

Same here, man. I fucked up my first 4u test due to just not doing enough work first term. Came 4th or 5th out of 15 people (at the time), but ended up coming first in course at my school.

Can I have your email?

Don't think I'll be getting a whole lot of 3000 word essays in pure mathematics.

Yep, it's my favourite show.

This is what I don't like about English. I often don't entirely believe what I am writing and I dislike having to 'bullshit'. I do not always agree that the use of the pronoun 'she' means 'she' completely lacks identity or the description of a flickering light is symbolic of a lack of identity...

So gen maths should be compulsory and count for HSC also then?

I'd argue that economics, science and maybe legal studies are far better for that. English helps you analyse texts and *sound good* when you argue, it doesn't necessarily help you develop actually good arguments (doesn't help you any better than science, economics, etc at least).
