Being gifted is not a requirement but it certainly helps. Generally speaking, hard work is the most important factor, but the way i like to view it is that your atar is somewhat like a product of some sort of intelligence quotient and the amount of work you put in. The more gifted the student...

Well the syllabus changed for 2013 so there isnt a lot in the way of resources, but there is an Excel Engineering Studiea textbook thats actually quite decent, made for the new syllabus! I knoe how you feel though, we were given Schlenker [emoji14]

what you're talking about is alignment. it aligns quite well from what I've seen in the past, like mid 70s raw goes into the 90s. I am unsure of my raw mark but I was 2nd at rank 33 school and got 93 HSC mark. as far as knowing where you have to be, honestly it's very difficult to know with a...

no, i just question the legitimacy of a poster when a question goes to 3 pages. apologies if i caused any offence

seriously unsure if this is a troll or not.

Totally putting Civ V on my laptop

I'd probs rather spread it a bit

I'll be travelling from the blue mountains to UNSW, doing electical engineering double with adv math How do you think i feel

Been bboying on and off for 6 years and self-tsught tricking for 2-3 now also very on and off I train tricking at homebush when possible because sprung floor is amazing + there are often a lot of people there willing to give tips/corrections. Bboying i train with my mates and sometimes at...

Depends on the unis bonus scheme but iirc it's capped at 5 excluding EAS

Unless you did them accelerated don't do it. If you did them accelerated then by all means give it another shot

I ended up 99 in 3u and 94 in 4u and i was never tutored either. It really depends on the persons strengths and how willing they are to work without a tutor (i did nothing for english or physics all year)

I got 93 exam and assessment School ranked 33 this year and yeah i estimated my raw at 75-78

That would be 47 not 46

My internal mark was 65-66 (ranked 126/150 for adv) I got 83 external and 79 internal

this. When you repeat a unit they take your most recent not your best

School estimate: 93-95 (they're awful lmao) My estimate: 97.1-97.5 My atar: 97.25

Pretty much. Only exception is 2 kids i know who got 99 in 2U (state rank). They didnt take 4u for that reason

This definitely. Doing 4u was the best choice i made (along with repeating 3u) Not to mention that as an accelerant math is clearly a strength for you so its extemely beneficial to have 40% of your atar come from the best scaling subjects in the hsc, both of which play to your strength. That +...

Malcolm that is false. OP i did 2u and 3u in year 11 as well so i can confirm this is what happens. When you sit the 4u hsc it will be as though you did not sit the 2u hsc.
