Seriously ... how many "elite students" take these bonus points? It wouldnt be many at all.
Besides, the special provisions shouldnt help anyone.
p.s. gibbo123, i bet i can write faster than you can type :)
Re: makin up historians??
lol. I kinda agree with simonloo that you do whatever you need to do to get marks ... but at the same time making up historians doesnt seem to me to be a good enough way of doing that considering the risks.
lol. Or do mad humanities like eco, mhistory, ahistory, 3+4 eng. Because even though they dont scale so well you can get almost state ranking marks with much less effort :)
Re: makin up historians??
Dont be retarded. Making up historians is just stupid. Think of a simple pro/con analysis : pro is you may gain a little impression if it is pulled off well. con is that the marker picks up on it (its not hard, and they'll just ask the next marker who the historian is...
Depends on whether the people around you in the selective are actually going to get better marks then you in the HSC. If not, then option one. If so, then option two.
Hey, when you put marks into SAM you need aligned marks. How far would the aligned mark for the HSC exam be from the actual raw marks? Because i dont see myself getting 98% raw in 3unit.
