I think thats stupid, because he already got a reasonably good mark, it will be a waste of time and stress to tell you the truth.
i guess it depends on what uai you need

lol how about trying another uni etc...? I mean there is no way in the world i will tire myself into studyying the HSC again if i get 99.5, I mea seriously try something else if your UAI doesn't get you in the course you wanted... would you repeat yr 12? I mean I won't repeat even if I get 90 UAI, lol

lol chemistry in jacaranda is longer... 436 pgs... >.<"
You have to consider the fact that it also contains most of the option topics. However, you only need to learn one.

I don't know. I would have repeated a subject if I could do much better...

But meh, that's just me. My mate is repeating Economics this year so he can get 95+ (he got 90 last time) and I think that's bloody smart in his part.
Yeah - i would, like I'm definitely repeating MX1 this year - regardless of what I get (unless I get 50 - which I won't).

But he's got so many subject to choose from to repeat - because he's got a lot of units - so better off choosing one that he'll prob do better at?

yep i noticed that and took that into consideration or else it would have been 653 pgs LOL
Yeah, I took a look at Chemistry in Jacaranda and almost died from shock. It's so much thicker than the Yr 11 one. :p

Nope. No work. 2 weeks of actual holidays. Rest, sleep, chillax; try it. Seriously, some of you people have got to worry more about over-stressing yourselves and then bombing out.

Re: Have you started hsc work yet?

I watched "Pride and Prejudice" the other day so I guess that's starting the "Belonging" unit for English...

I looked at my Chemistry textbook too - "ohhhhh crrraaaap" was my reaction.

It's not really 6 days wasted - just look at is as 6 days of 'rejuvenation'.
