    Yeah what makes matters worse is that these people already get tutored for all of their subjects as well :/ But beating them makes it all the more satisfying for you and more embarrassing for them

    Having just finished internals I'm going to post some advice I never saw prior to commencing my HSC Year. 1) Staying True To Yourself You're going to see a lot of people get really desperate during the HSC year by doing things such as taking Ritalin (This is a concentration drug that is...

    Does your school mark harshly and/or are you at a high ranked school? + If you do go ahead with tutoring just keep in mind that they're not miracle workers; the improvement will only come if you're willing to put in the effort Good luck :D

    Advice Please?

    If they're close friends then I would do it for free tbh Also I would advise against doing it after school time, just organise with your teacher if you can book a quiet classroom or conference room during lunch time

    My marks aren't that great but it's because the teachers mark very harsh (My overall rank is pretty decent considering that I don't study the subject very often)

    Re: Year 11 Mathematics 3 Unit Cambridge Question & Answer Thread ln(1) is zero Something interesting to note with negative logs though, whenever you're solving an inequality such as (x)ln(0.4) < 5 When you divide both sides by ln(0.4) remember to swap around the inequality...

    Oh I thought it was the other way around, my bad :/ Yeah a similar thing happened to my brother, he was ranked third in the internal exams and got 92 but performed poorly in the external exam and ended up with an 89 overall :/ I think that this is my biggest fear for HSC Physics; when you...

    Phew I take comfort in that But I've put those days behind me I'm going to prepare well before HSC comes around Also I wanted to ask you how there was a massive difference in your eco internal and external? Did you study extremely hard from post-trials to HSC? Was it easier than your...

    My ranks for phys, chem and business are in the b6 range - but that doesn't guarantee that I will get it That being said I'm confident in my abilities for physics and chemistry; my poorer results are often due to a lack of preparation :/ I will start to devote more time to business though :)

    Waot I find finance one of the more easier topics - I got 28 / 30 and I studied 3 hours before the exam (Don't judge me please I suck at business) That also got me wondering though What were your marks for every internal assessment task RoT (if you don't mind me asking and if you remember)?

    The External Supervisors

    I have a strong feeling that myself and others are curious about external examiners so for any of my 2015ers and those who are accelerating subject post up questions that you would like answered by a past HSC student :) 1) Can you ask for more paper prior to the exam commencing? For subjects...
