    the current english course is a waste of time, true or false

    To anyone defending English: Go Die. If you want higher order thinking do 4U Maths. If you want to read shitty old poetry, do it in your own time. English biases the HSC SO far in favour of girls/humanities students. Look at the fucking scaling curve.

    Dux of your school

    Yeah, they account for drop outs etc when they create UAIs so median (For Yr 12 leaver) is 66, following on it would seem that some 30% of people get below 50

    what school are you at?

    I can't believe you actually admit that. I'm at Stannies in Bathurst. I have played your school in chess, as embarrasing as that is, but I got a day off school. One of my mates used to go there.

    Aiming 2 get 100%

    Sure, you may get better marks in humanities but without a shadow of a doubt 100% is more easily achieved in maths/sciences due to less amibiguous marking.
