bump!

Hi guys! So these are the ranks I'm currently looking at after getting my trials back. They might be revised a little with whatever changes to individual marks but what kind of ATAR could I be looking at with these? School Rank: 100-110 (usually varies between 50-150) Subjects + Ranks: ESL -...

bumpppp

So there's really no such thing as outliers being dealt with separately?

I've done a lot of searching and haven't been able to find something that explicitly states what the BOS says about outliers. Say in a class of 5, the person ranked 1st is 15-20% ahead of 2nd and 3rd, in terms of unmoderated assessment marks. The gap between 2nd & 3rd is 1%, 3rd & 4th is 5%, 4th...

Hey guys, just wondering if going to any of the HSC Economics lectures would be worth the time? Currently I'm looking at the Academic Attainment one held at USyd which runs for two days. Not going would give me an additional 16-18hrs of study at home. Taking into consideration that I need to...

Hi guys! School Rank: 100-110 (usually varies between 50-150) Subjects + (Ranks): ESL - 1/14 MX1 - 3/20 MX2 - 4/10 (I bombed the first assessment but came 2nd in the 2nd one. Went up 4 ranks after it :)) ECO - 3/10 PHY - 1/27 Could I possibly get in the 99's?

So initially I had intended to drop Physics, however doing really well in a recent assessment landed me the top rank in class. And I thought this was very advantageous and hence decided not to drop it lol. Now I'm thinking of dropping Business Studies... I really want to drop down to 10 units...

I'm guessing there's a mistake somewhere, otherwise I don't get it. I see what you and my friend mean, and yeah, I've to find out if I'm actually better at Physics than Eco and/or Bus. Will defs take this into consideration! thanks for the input :)

This is such a decision. Does Physics generally scale better than Economics and Business Studies? Ok, maybe set 4U aside for a moment. Hypothetically speaking (lol), considering the fact that I'm putting minimal effort into Physics and decent amount of effort into Eco and Bus, getting decent...

Thanks guys, for the help! I think you made a good point. I'm not too keen on working on my Physics... :spin: First day back I'll just confirm with a teacher, but I guess I'm leaning more towards dropping it asap.

Some background info: Currently I have 12 units, which include ESL, MX1, MX2, Business Studies, Economics and Physics. In our term 4 assessments, I came first in ESL, Business and Economics, and came second (equal with two others) in Physics. We haven't had any math assessments yet so I...

cos it ez n scales abt d same as adv ... also, it means less time spent on English and more time on other subs :D

Hey all! :) It seems like I'm breaking a 2-day-long period of awkward silence hahaha. I guess you can call me Empathy? My subjects are: English Advanced (Pending ESL!) Maths Ext. 1 Maths Ext. 2 Physics Economics Business Studies I hope to do a double degree with B Actuarial Studies...
