My brother just finished year 10 and we're moving to the north shore (emergency move) which is 2 hours away from where I live now. Just wondering if it is too late to enrol him at North Sydney boys HS? He got straight As in both reports this year.

Was anyone successful?

Don't do it

I'm in the same boat for Dalloway! My whole grade literally thought it was Clarissa! I would have never, in my wildest dreams thought it would be Lucrezia! But apparently, markers don't care about who said the quote... They care about the idea! Well, at least that's what my teacher and tutor...

Haha, I didn't even realise we had to memorise 4 essays and a creative well after term 2 in year 12. I had the same exact reaction as you! In fact, I had to memorise 5 essays and 2 creatives because I do 3U English. Anyway, it is not difficult! Very simple; start early! Don't cram like me! I...

Hmm, I would much rather prefer you post it on this thread! Haha, I really don't care how good they are in Australia, I care about their international reputation. I just did a search online and it turns out that yes, in fact, ANU and UMELB have the best international reputation. Of course I...

I would love to hear your criticism on UNSW and USYD :) Umelb, USYD and UNSW are my other options (in that order) and I really want a balanced opinion on all four of my options!

Honestly, if I were so salty about a Uni as you are about ANU, I would've transferred. I'm curious, MikeLloyd, why are you still studying at the ANU? Why not transfer to a more 'selective' school like UNSW or USYD?

Wait a second, you haven't actually studied at ANU? So you're currently in year 12 as well? Lol, what makes you think you're qualified enough to criticise ANU? Why'd you apply for Tuckwell if you absolutely despise of the ANU anyway? And to think I was going to give up 100K based on YOUR opinion.

Also, I'm going to move to America anyway. I've heard ANU and UMELB have better recognition and reputation over at the states. That's all I care about.

Yes. What uni you reckon will get me into Harvard as a postgrad? 2 of my cousins got into Harvard as postgrads and they graduated from ANU. Does that make a difference?

You reckon I should give up my scholarship and not go ANU?

Based on ATAR notes, I got 19/20 for MC only because no one knows the actual answer to q20! I spoke to my teacher after the exam who had the paper and we went through it and according to him, I got everything correct, so I'm happy :) I just hope the HSC criteria is close to my teacher's...

You're absolutely right. I have been planning on studying at the ANU since year 10, but the 15min I spent reading these posts (not sure why OP even made this thread in the first place? What point are you trying to provie Dichromate? That ANU doesn't deserve its #1 rank?) have influenced me so...
