[Rednalik]

[mvrcuriee]

you'll defo be fine for 68 atar or whatever. Everyone on this forum be going to a good school. My school is literally bottom 20%

Brev my school rank was like 550+ and they removed it now

 

[Ksalu]

my friend keeps insisting that theyll have an 8 marker for the english short answer, but i think thats impossible. they cant ask for an 8 marker and then have ever other question be just 3 marks, right??

Possible seen it in past trial papers

 

[jackshlz]

eeyikes my school was 400+ in 2022 it might be over

guys i think they will give a comparative short answer question tomorrow because there is a pattern of doing it every 2 years

Yeah and I also got a comparative sa in trials so could mean something

do u reckon a question would be anomalies, paradoxes and inconsistencies or would they just focus on 1 of them

Dw bout this school rank crap, it just demotivates you. Just try your best and you'll be surprised by the results you can achieve, no ones going to ask your school or atar in the future this is all temporary, but just aim to get the best you can

that's very much a lesson i've learnt the hard way, my school rank is so bad because i'm in alternative education but technically it's a private school i can tell people i went to a private school and look impressive (life hacks)

thank you for the motivation. it's nice to have a reminder from other people, i feel like it actually hits more than me telling myself

Legit, just do your best and the world will benefit from that alone. Faith and good works, my friend.

My geo teacher has a funny story where his brother wanted to go to Uni back in the day, but his UAI was too low, so he re-did all of year 12.

He got 67 the first time round, and somehow got 43 the second time. How in the world ?!
