Hello again BoS, I completed my Higher School Certificate in 2014, achieving the following results; English Advanced: 96/100 English Extension I: 49/50 English Extension II: 46/50 Mathematics: 95/100 Mathematics Extension I: 43/50 Chemistry: 92/100 Biology: 93/100 I received an ATAR of 99.35...

Going to join the bandwagon here :) Doing a double degree in law (hons) with information technology.

I wouldn't repeat personally.

I would keep the subject tbh, the amount of stress being on 10-11 units and fear of bombing an exam is not worth it...

tbh I spent so long each night doing maths homework I only had a spare 30-45 minutes, which I'd waste talking to my sister :haha:

I would choose combined commerce if I were you, sounds like your heart isn't in law :)

1. Of course, you've only had one assessment task so far 2. Again, yes 3. I try and translate the information I read into notes I understand - which means making notes takes a long time, however I've noticed it improves my recall and understanding significantly. So I'd go with the former. 4...

I've heard of this BoS'er called 'YunLi' who may be able to give you some helpful advice ;)

I'd say the biggest surprise for me (and for a few other people, it seems) was EE2. The best you can do is hope for markers that like your MW I suppose.

Then: I wanted to be an ornithologist or a wildlife photographer. And then for a time I also wanted to be a pathologist/anesthesiologist/plastic surgeon. Now: I'd like to be some kind of lawyer.

lol we spent like weeks learning our polyatomic ions in year 10 :haha:

Hear hear! :D

I only got tutoring for 3U maths, which was my worst subject that also ended up not counting. imo it wasn't worth it, though to be fair I always disliked maths and was less likely to try hard than subjects I liked and did better at.

I have to agree, I dropped to 11 because I thought being on 12/13 would drag down my ATAR. My friend doing 13 units ended up with 99.85, which was in the end significantly higher than my ATAR. I think this may have had something to do with the fact I tended to waste the huge amounts of spare...

I'm probably going to be doing either I.T./Law or Economics law should I decide to go to ANU :) About 85% sure I'll end up there next year!

can confirm I did the same thing and got estimates 2-3 ATAR points below the actual :D

Nah, I think you made the right choice personally :)

Just find a few techniques here and there and be all "this stark contrast/poignant symbol/etc. is reflective of the discovery of blah blah blah", seemed to work for me :D

I would keep physics until you've sat a 4U exam tbh

:haha:
