    How Do I Study Well?

    The first and for most thing is to identify your goal and means of achieving that goal.. e.g. map out a mark that you would like to achieve in Biology and identify means of going about that. 1. It all starts at school.. which means you MUST solidify a solid internal ranking that will be...

    Can I get 99+ with these subjects?

    93 HSC mark.. it doesn't mattter what combination of subjects you do, as long as you do very well in them you can get 99+. Right now, aim for top ranks.. then when it comes HSC time, aim to smash the exams and get 93+ in all your externals. Then that should put you in good stead to get 99+

    Can I get 99+ ATAR?

    not neccessarily.. unless 80 is also the top external mark =/.. doubt a cohort could be that bad.

    I need a tutor near Girraween!!

    lol.. its $50 because the lessons are 2hrs long.. which equals $25/hr whereever you go for senior tutoring the tutor is going to suggest that you spend 2 hrs with him/her..

    I need a tutor near Girraween!!

    TBH, I went to Dux College just for Chemistry.. but it really is the best place to go.. $25 is probably one of the cheapest rates out there - for notes, weekly homework marking, trial tests etc. It is very comprehensive. And it is the most convenient - having all your lessons done on one day of...

    I need a tutor near Girraween!!

    the lessons are 2 hrs long, so its about $25/hr.. it's quality tuition and will definitely put you in good stead for year 12. However, I was always under the belief that you don't need a tutor for year 11 - only for year 12. THe stuff learnt particularly in phys and chem don't carry on to...

    Can I get 99+ ATAR?

    ah k, yeah if you can balance your time that go for it. but for me, 10 units was the best decision I could make.. opened up so much free time and enabled me to focus on the subjects I knew were going to count

    Can I get 99+ ATAR?

    the school doesnt give you a assessment mark.. or if it does (on your report) it doesn't matter.. RANKS matters. If you came 1st in Biology during your school assessments, and then you get 98 for the external exams, then you will get 98 for your internals and 98 for your externals -> 98 HSC...

    Can I get 99+ ATAR?

    yeah.. my cohorts were weak as.. so if i didn't come 1st or at least top 3 i knew that I would suffer.. In saying that, some cohorts were stronger then others (e.g. mx1 and eng) so I didn't mind dropping a rank or two. in the end even if your top 3 and the gaps are relatively small, it'll...

    Can I get 99+ ATAR?

    oh and another note.. don't get a big head if your smashing your internal assessments.. as they are not necessarily a reliable indication of how you will go in the actual HSC.. as long as you maintain high ranks and develop strong HSC exam technique your set to get whatever atar you desire...

    Can I get 99+ ATAR?

    all you can do is aim for 1sts across all subjects.. after that, aim to smash the external HSC and that will put you in good stead for 99+. I went to a school ranked 280ish, now 150ish.. and top 3 across all my subjects was sufficient enough to get me 98.75.. however in saying that, i received...
