Have they rang the people who came first in the state already?

Hypothetically, if person A were to get 100 in the HSC exam and person B got 99, but person B had higher internal assessment marks, would person A still come first in the state?

Hi, do you know when the solutions for E2 will be avaliable?

Hi, thanks for this amazing resource! I've always wondered how you guys come up with these questions - they seem so unique, things I've never seen. How did you think of this things?

I'm in year 12 right now and I've decided to really get on top of my physical health. About a month ago, just before term holidays, I started to go to the gym and I'm really into it. I'm also doing a sport which requires 2 training sessions a week and a game on saturday. I'm aiming for a high...

Great, thank you so much!! Well I got 17 in the common module and 16 in mod B for english, do you know what I'll have to hit for my term 2, trials and HSC to get around 92-3 for english?

Hi, I feel that I'm doing quite well in terms of most of my subjects, except for english. I go to a top 4 school and these are roughly my rankings: eng adv - ~50-70/~190 (low band 6/band 5 - but apparently my school marks tough? i honestly dont really know where my rank is but around there)...

Hey, I'm currently in year 11 at a top 5 school, and I have my subject selection forms due soon. Currently, I'm deciding between physics and economics. For eco, I ranked 10th in term 1 and 1st in term 2 out of ~125. For physics, I didn't do so well, ~30-40 out of ~100. However, I'm definitely...

How are your assessments going? Were they harder or easier than expected? Personally, I found basically all my subjects straight forward as term 1 is mostly consolidation of last year's work. Yes, I'm just procrastinating the night before my assessment with the most content to memorise :))

at my school, we get a rank for each subject every term and in term 3 we get an aggregate

My school doesn't really use tech at all, so, 99% of the work we do in class is hand written. As a result, all of my notes I've taken in and out of class are handwritten, but the problem is that my hand writing isn't very neat. I've been considering creating a neater, digitalised version of my...

relax man, it doesn't benefit anyone when you're getting pretty aggravated over an internet forum about school...

Apart from the standard reading texts ahead, making notes/summaries during the term time as you learn content, etc., what are some effective strategies to keep on top of things before crunchtime during exam periods?

Ah right, that was the main goal: to get better at my creative writing, seeing as I'm currently in the Reading to Write common module. My teacher suggested to me that reading widely may help me find a style of writing that I both enjoy and will be able to write well with. Do you have any more...

I've finally caved. I need to start reading if I want to stand a chance in doing well in english. What suggestions do you guys have for books that aren't super long and have some action (no romantic like stuff)?

well i guess thats true; what about other subjects? i see you did excellently in maths! i have powell, and from what i've seen and been told it's just work and not much teaching

ah right, yeah idk about illic i just heard my friend had her. did you know anyone who requested to change teachers? i really feel like quinn is going to drop my marks, as if they weren't low enough already.

going into yr12 or if i pick up ext, who would be the teachers that i should look out for? i heard derricourt and illic are good.

hmm yeah, i guess that maybe turning to a private tutor would be better, as black.mamba said ext is quite different to adv so maybe the advantages can't directly be applied, apart from general text composition etc. i'm just not sure if i'm up to ext english and the pretty daunting extra work (ie...

do you know how they found it? were they in the same position as me; ie doing ext for the extra practice etc
