What would happen to his ranks?

What would happen to his ranks?

Not sure exactly, perhaps an estimate based on his performance in the mathematics course?

you can get them off scribd, except you have to pay for them regardless, so i don't think you can get them free

unless, someone on the forums has the t/b, but even then, it's illegal to pass on pdfs

I was in a similar position. I was in the top maths class at a 15-20 ranked school, for my entire schooling life. I did Extension 1 maths in year 11, was even in an accelerated course in year 10 that would have enabled me to do my 2unit hsc a year earlier. At the end of prelim, I dropped to general maths and it was the best decision of my entire living life.

The course is practical, interesting, and enjoyable to study.
It is a new course as well, I was the first year who did it and I cant really talk about scaling yet but it is predicted to scale better as it incorporates more challenging focus studies and does not use a graphics calculator.
I fell behind in extension 1 so easily and general enabled me to focus on all my other subjects, which meant my ranks were better in all of them.

If you fall behind in 2 unit, and are not passionate about maths and prepared to do a bridging course if necessary, please please drop to general. I highly recommend it.

Some schools do an estimate for first general mathematics task; based on performance in the others assessments + trial...

I totally agree.

Plus general kids appear to have a lot more fun?

Aiming for UTS, Integrated Product Design that requires at least 75.05 ATAR. Just need to work hard and hope for the best. On the negative side, might as well go to University of Wollongong or University of Western Sydney in 2016. But ill give UTS a shot. By the way, if i dont put down UTS on the list when i do my HSC and i got the ATAR that is high enough for UTS, would i still be able to go into UTS?.

Hey, don't diss UOW

Yes you can change your preferences after you get your ATAR. I got an atar of above 99 doing general maths.
