Generally 800 is decent - you'd rather spend more time on essays

Is 600 alright?

Is 600 alright?

You could make it work, but imo you'd struggle to reach top band marks with 600
Writing skill is inversely proportional to amount of words you can get away with generally

Is 600 alright?

I'd say aim to reach at least 700 at the very minimum.

Whilst you are in Year 11, there is less of a demand placed on how much you should be writing.

However, the fact is that once you're into the HSC if you can't write 800 words in 40 minutes you are KIDDING YOURSELF.

18 people doing chem, what school???

That's not surprising. At my school only 26 people did chemistry.

 

[turntaker]

6 ppl did Chem at my school

 

[Nailgun]

104 people do chem at my school (lol)

 

[Silky_Smooth]

At least 100 people in my year alone do chem

 

[leehuan]

Chemistry's the one with the shapes and shit right

Glendale, it is in Newcastle. Our school is dominated by a trade school. As a result we have 18 people in chem and 3 English studies classes, and a waiting list to get in. Pretty sad, I know, but am aiming to become one of the first to get an ATAR into the 90s. So considering that at least half of the class don't have the ability to go well, I should rank in the top ten with little to no studying.
