    school atar estimate?

    this isn't an english exam... OP your school would have sent in your assessment marks/ranks to the BOS by now. i didn't think that they scaled/aligned them or provided an ATAR estimate with what they submit but don't quote me on it. there's nothing you can do now besides trying to do very well...

    Please see this, letter to adrian piccoli, minister of education

    if you're thinking like that, why not have something like: 10 units besides english sitting an external exam/interview to gauge your english ability and if you have good communication skills then you get accepted into that course?

    another simple maths question.

    this is why using full stops as a multiplication symbol is stupid and confusing. putting a times sign removes all confusion. also, in your guys working shouldnt you show that 9^x gets turned into (3^x)^2 instead of jumping straight to the next line?

    how much should I be writing in 40 mins?!

    depending on the size this is true. but if you write 300 words a page that adds up to less than 4 pages all up. If you can write 300 words on a page without it being illegible that's some nice handwriting haha. I personally struggle to get 4 pages per essay which is something i need to work on :/

    How to make a pre-prepared essay?

    A huge amount of people seem to have pre-prepared essays for english which seems to work for them. Up until this point I've simply had sections based around themes e.g. Hamlet ive got about a page of notes each on corruption, appearance vs reality and mortality. I'm guessing if you write a...
