    Structuring AOS Notes - Cores and Relateds

    Hello! A recent problem that has started bugging me is how on earth do I condense my core and related texts into a set of notes which relate to belonging. A lot of people just say, just do what you did for prelims. And to be honest, all I did for prelims was just had one central idea, wrote...

    Hi! I was wondering if universities placed a great deal of emphasis on extra-curricular? I'm looking at applying for USYD's merit scholarship for 95+ ATAR in the engineering or architecture faculty. I think I can probably tick off the academic box (i.e. 95+ ATAR) but was also wondering how...
