a 60 won’t align to a 90, but yes the aligned mark for an E4 (and hence 90) is usually in the mid-high 60s

I would avoid it for in school assessments, the teachers are the ones marking your papers after all, and they will usually mark ideas similar to theirs higher. you can do whatever for the hsc though as long as it’s well written and fits the rubric for a good mark

the whole hours thing is just indicative of what should happen it doesn’t really matter it’s not meant to be exact

it won’t be exactly 20 percent because between first and last it’s also based on relative mark differences between rankings etc but on a fundamental level yes, if your whole cohort did badly around that mark area then yes you would get a mark around 20%. this is fair because 80-90% is clearly an...

keep in mind the above doesn’t apply as much at usyd because you can choose your second major from the shared pool within most liberal studies degrees (eg bachelor of science, bachelor of arts), so basically anything other than law and engineering can be chosen as a second major without any...

No, because it’s based on your cohorts hsc exam marks in the subject, and so it would be impossible for them to calculate your moderated marks before the hsc

No. That would be unfair for schools with harder/easier exams.

it’s a moderated mark which is calculated based on your rankings (and the differences between rankings) and your schools hsc exam performance in the subject. for example if you’re ranked first internally and then the highest exam mark in your school is 90 (which could’ve been gotten by you or...

a few hours of actual memorising per essay but i found it draining asf so i took a lot of breaks and it ended up taking a bit longer

not too bad just study consistently and effectively throughout the year and you’ll be fine

i actually felt so insane pacing around an empty room for like hours on end reciting essays but it worked

^ masaken saved me hard by saying this before exams last year, can confirm it works very well

would probably get a bit confusing going back and forth between the two poems so much and i think it’s better to follow ideas more than just themes

ikr I was like unable to study for like the whole last week because of whatever I caught actually so stuffed for my maths exam now because of it

you don’t have to but it’ll probably shorten your degree, as said above I’d just choose a psychology major in the Bachelor of Arts and then as long as u perform well enough you should be able to transfer without adding any years to you degree or any problems

same I wish I got his genes for this instead of my mums 10 hours of sleep a night

yes they can restrict you but if you and/or your parents complained enough (with sufficient reasoning) I’m sure you could probably get in

that’s fine, I went overseas for 2 holidays in y12 and still survived

from a quick search of the Monash website, yes it is a prerequisite for both

it’s not really based on chance, it’s based on your results and how you do. the best way to go about this would be to do a degree you’d be happy in anyway, and that way you’ll probably perform better anyway and not have the risk of having a degree you’re not passionate about
