    How??? urgent help please :( Really stressed, only 2 days until English

    How do you structure an English essay with a 2nd related text? For Discovery (and some clarification on the structure for MOD C would be helpful too) They never taught us this in school, we never did any work on a 2nd related text, the teachers never said anything about it, so now there are...

    Question about aligning/scaling

    Oh that's what I used to think, but then I also heard that a significant difference in your external mark as opposed to your internal affects things as well

    Question about aligning/scaling

    Is it true if you get super high in the HSC, but your internal rank/mark is mediocre or bad, they align the HSC mark to match the external result?

    Internal assessment rank vs. HSC external mark? (help)

    So if I get, let's say 4th in internal assessment rank, and my HSC external mark is extremely high, like a 98, and that's technically 1st, will the 1st internally ranked person take my external HSC mark of 98, and I get the 4th highest external HSC mark? What if that 4th mark is pretty bad, like...

    Do the Rich Rule Selective Schools??

    ?? Private schools rule the rich. I go to a selective and people's houses are drab, single-storeyed and dodgy as. Probably because their parents spend all their money on tutoring... but There's this outlier white kid tho whose father is a CEO, but he's an outlier and finds it a bit...

    2018ers Chit-Chat Thread

    Hey guys, I know this sounds ridiculous, but how do you block off the distraction of having a crush on someone? Like sometimes I can't concentrate when I'm studying or reading through notes. It's really a mental thing that I need help controlling. :/ LMAO like all the years I've been...

    Teacher giving incorrect/insubstantial feedback on drafts?

    And I recall handing in a draft for Modern History as well. I didn't use some of the feedback partly because I was lAZY and partly because half of it didn't make sense, and ended up topping the cohort... For legal, I use the feedback and end up with a worse mark??

    Teacher giving incorrect/insubstantial feedback on drafts?

    For legal, I handed in a draft. Teacher gave me her feedback, I fixed it to the best of my ability but only ended up with 80%. The feedback for my assignment correcting my "errors" were vastly different to how my teacher marked the draft, whereupon she failed to notify me of these said "errors"...

    How bad have I screwed up my ATAR?

    Also, if anyone has some holiday catch-up tips, that would be great! Especially for Modern and Legal, as I am drastically behind on my notes. I'm working steadily, but of course there's this lingering fear that the content's too much and I'll never get the first part done by the start of the...

    How bad have I screwed up my ATAR?

    Hi, I came into the year with a goal of achieving an ATAR of 95+. But after seeing my results, I'm questioning whether I've set my aim too high. English Advanced: 78% Weighting: 15% English Ext: (haven't been tested yet) Modern History: 98% Weighting: I lost the assessment sheet lmao, but...
