very stupid question but when can i see my internal cumulative rank for a hsc course - do i wait for my school to give it to me or can you see it on students online ?

we got given sheets on monday that we had to sign for approval .

 

[t234]

whenever ur school gives it it comes on students online after hsc for like a month

oh my we see it after the exam...is it normal for schools to not give the ranks before

 

[K2Trappy]

literally everyone ive spoken to has this problem. I guess we are supposed to slog it out for the last month.

im not forgetting my exam period is over another month

I used to study 3.5-4 hours on school days now I'm lucky to get in 2

[vajayjay]

why cant November 6 come sooner

HSC ECO students where we at

I’ve decided to run a free 1-hour seminar that will break down an essay question I believe may likely be assessed in the exam. This question will be on International Organisations, and I have a solid band 6 calibre framework that I’m really keen on sharing

Having achieved a sr mark in eco and ranked first in a top selective HS, i do think i've got some insights that I'd love to share and just general tips as well to help you achieve your best.

THERE's always still hope - please fill out this expression of interest form to help me gauge numbers: https://forms.gle/ZkKBsuragciNYzRR8

CHEERS

 

[P Ditty]

It's in the early entry offer - mine was like 11 points higher than my estimated using my trial results lol

Bro they gave me a 99.95 and atar calculator from uac gives me a 85 for my year 11 results...
Literally would not trust anu

 

[P Ditty]

any tips for studying chem? i have trouble memorising content

anki flashcards are a lifedsaver

 

[Average Boreduser]

Hey, I'm currently in year 10 and I've decided to study Chem earlier this year! Could anyone help me with these two problems? Its just these two that I am really stumped on I'm asking on this thread because you guys are in senior school

1st Question ) I get the gist of this question, but I'm stuck on how to find the total hydroxide concentration from the two samples. Could you explain how you got it please. ( Answer is E ).

( 2nd Question ) This one I really don't understand and my friends are sooo unhelpful Could someone give me a full on way on how to solve this one. The answer is ( A ).

View attachment 44191

Chemistry is definitely the easier one out of the three sciences. Physics is getting really undo-able might have to go tutoring for it next year

the first one u take the stoich in the molecule itself. Ba2+:OH-= 1:2 and accordingly add moles of OH, divide by volume

second one gave u more info than needed to make it tricky. just find the moles of c6h12O6, then divide by the volume. THe concentration is maintained in a sample because we are considering molarity which is a unit/volume. hence, even if u had a 10ml volume extracted from the 200mls, the 10mls still has the same concentration.

 

[Average Boreduser]

So... Ba(OH)2 can disassociate in water. we then can consider it through its molecular ratio. For each Ba2+ ion, there is 2 OH- ions. Since you have x amount of moles of Ba(OH)2, you have 2x moles of OH- ions. You then can do the same thing with the NaOH and add the OH- moles up. From there you divide by the volume of the BaOh and NaOH

 

[Average Boreduser]

Yeah... Thats what I was thinking as well. Its just I don't know what to do from there. I know the basic fundamentals, but I can't make any progress with it. Its really fustrating. . I hate Molarity and Molaity so much ( Anything to do with concentration, to be honest ).

it takes heaps of practice mate. It's good you're doing things now. I wish I did that when I was younger lmfao. Lowkey just grind this shit out instead of your yr 10 stuff if ur confortable w the content. Genuinely, the chemistry course for yr 10 is a joke. Basically the same shit/less than the yr 9 syllabus. You can use that time better.

 

[Billy_marcell98]

also anki

how do you use it though it so difficult liek app is so out of date

 

[Billy_marcell98]

Yeah I’m gonna party my ass off and go out bro

for pdhpe how do you study?

 

[mvrcuriee]

for pdhpe how do you study?

i make sure that i actually know my syllabus like i can recite it and all the subheading of it
making written summaries on my own (idk it helps me more and i can remember better if i do it myself)
and i do a lot of practice questions under timed conditions and i give to my teacher to mark

rinse & repeat ;-)

when you do writtern summaries do you try to use dot point rtaher than long paragraph?

 

[Billy_marcell98]

if you do low scalling subj does that mean you would achieve an 90+ result

yeah nothing too long, i do a definition and i try to subtly answer the 'learn to' side
here's an example:
