    i'm stressing over picking my BOW concept :(

    Having been in your situation (and having seen most of my peers in your situation), honestly - don't worry about your concept. Just do what you do, take the photos you think are cool and you want to take, then take some time at the end of a week or two to look back and see if you can find any...

    Hsc revision practice - short answers |question 1|

    Sure thing. Rewriting your first one: Disconnection is depicted through the jarring contrast between the dark opaque colours of the building and the colourless boy, as if they belonged to different images. The boys facial expression and sideways glance suggests he is sad and secluded...

    Hsc revision practice - short answers |question 1|

    One thing I noticed (just reading through) is that your responses use very awkward language? Your marker won't mark you down if you use the simpler, clearer (and more accurate) alternative to the words you're using at the moment. On the contrary, you could potentially lose marks by being too...

    4U? 4me?

    Do 4U :U Aside from ATAR, you learn some really interesting and useful stuff. If you have the intellectual capability for it (which you obv do), it's an immensely worthy way to use your time (and possibly make hsc year feel more rewarding).

    AOS Creative Question

    How explicit do they want us to make the discovery? There is a very implicit personal discovery for my protag. There's also a physical discovery that doesn't really happen. If it were a BOSTES question, it'd be along the lines of 'describe the process of discovery', while the discovery itself...

    Is Kurt Mathematics Centre good?

    Hated the place.This was back in year 10 and I felt like I was in a detention center. Admittedly, it's the only coaching place I've tried (because my maths back then was consistently below average) and I could not stand it. Probably depends on the person though, since a lot of my peers attend -...

    applying for selective schools year 11??? help

    Honestly, I'd advise you think over this carefully. There's more to a school than its ranking: consider how the school environment affects your overall emotional well-being - often a major contributing factor to how well you do exam-wise. With your marks currently, I'd say you'd be...

    Got told I can't get my ATAR - Advice?

    That's terrible :( I'm surprised the school didn't inform you way, way earlier - incredibly irresponsible on their part. But, there are definitely options. 1. Enrol in TAFE/similar institutes. From there, transferring into university shouldn't be difficult. I did a quick google search and got...

    Is it just me or is everyone like this as well in year 11?

    No, I'm inclined to agree with you. As you can probably tell from the range of responses, it definitely changes student to student (based on what subjects, amount of effort etc). The main clincher for Yr 11, I think, are the free periods. Breaking the routine and having uninterrupted time...
