It’s all about consistent effort. It’s not just you but I think everyone here hates writing extended English responses in timed conditions, on the spot, with a stimulus you won’t even know. (Unless you’re masochistic). Honestly, the only way to prepare for this is simply just continually...

I can't really give advice to economics since I didn't do the subject, but I did Chemistry (albeit didn't try as hard for it I already got Band 6 in software), but I still have tips from experience. For Chemistry, as @Greninja340 said, yes the content itself is rather easy to...

The thing is, even if the Trials are worth low, it's still a SUPER high stakes exam. It's a full exam out of 100 that places a lot of pressure on students. Granted, whilst English is split over two days (40 first day and 60 the second), the exams still leave lots of room for error from any...

Hey, there!!! I know it might seem bad at the moment but keep in mind it is just your very first assessment task. Trust me, I had a meltdown after my first Extension 2 Maths task and I came the last rank. Super demoralising. But honestly, there's no point in moping around because it isn't going...

Honestly, if I knew I probably would've moved to do VCE. Like internal ranks for me, I heavily dislike, and I wish NESA can implement a system which doesn't focus so heavily on it. But then again they had terrible shit with COVID which was even worse than NSW....so yeah....

Honestly, I feel a bit sorry for you guys. Everyone talks about the 2020 HSC students during COVID, but you guys also had it hard for year 11 during it. Meaning, the fundamental concepts you needed to learn in preparation for the HSC might have been scuffed or delayed, and it might become harder...

Yes, I did understand that, which is why I didn't hold anything against him, and I knew why he would do it. It's why I held back from telling people about what I did know, I didn't want to cause any drama or embarrassment for him if it really was the case he lied.

Honestly, I didn't do anything. I guess back then I still had that trust and tried asking what you guys were asking whilst acting very naive and friendly as to not seem a threat in the hope I might get an answer. In a way, I played it off as a dumb sentimental question reserved for a friend.

Hey. I just wanted to say this to everyone. I KNEW the day Sonic got his ATAR and went offline for a week to get 99.65 I knew he wasn’t exactly telling the truth. I deliberately googled his school to find out the highest wasn’t his score. I even asked him about it and he said “he just didn’t...

Hi there!!! I was in the same boat as you while doing Extension 2 last year. I was so nervous all the time and I cried after my first exam as I did so bad (yikes!). I lost my marks to hard questions I never even seen and it’s not fair when other kids get tutors who exposed them to those types...

Nah, Software did lol.

Hi everyone!!! Not sure if anyone is still posting marks but here I go~ 2019 HSC Software Design and Development [94] 2020 HSC Mathematics Extension 2 [94] Mathematics Extension 1 [94] Physics [91] Chemistry [85] English Advanced [91] Additionally, I got the HSC All rounders award (thanks...

For Chemistry, you can route learn some aspects but I HIGHLY recommend actually learning and understanding your subject. Make the connections between the dots for subjects and really hone in on the nitty gritty fundamental concepts. For example, later you learn about esterificarion; but I would...

LOL maybe just because I just love science more and humanities bores me...explains why I struggle to remember everything.

Lol, the reason I avoided humanities subjects was because of how content-heavy they are. I think Chemistry has much more content than Physics, but maybe that's because I just love the intuition Physics holds and its very nice 'flow-on' cascading effect it has. I definitely remember content...

Another reason why I dislike the HSC concept. There’s so much focus on ranking from internals to the final ATAR system. It promotes toxic competition between students and seriously ruins relationships, especially in a teenage setting where students should be making most of their long time...

I managed to find an unlisted link to the video. Turns out he took it down due him being a senior marker of Physics. This means his answers are qualified. He may not be an exam writer but his answers are definitely have the logic and he has qualified many years of Physics teaching experience.

No. It won’t. Year 11 marks don’t count at all. All you have to do is look toward that finish line and race to it. Don’t let anything hold you back. Your Year 11 marks just indicate how much you need to work or change things to improve. Strive for your very best, and that is all you can do. You...

Honestly, I don’t understand why people get so jealous over others being “smarter” than them. It’s such a petty thing, really. Like just face it, there’s always going to be someone smarter/better than you at something. But there’s equally good chance you’ll be better at them at something too...
