Do Year 11 marks and ranks go towards anything? (1 Viewer)

[Protract]

Like...at all? My school never tells me these things.

 

[powlmao]

Nope. Youcan do jack shit in year 11 and get 99.95 for your ATAR

Well, I sorta dissagree because if you are not a person with great study habits, or not used to the pressure, I would use Year 11 as a building block, otherwise I would find it very hard in Year 12.

I was just making a obvious point. Of course if you have no study habits it will be super hard.

I was just pointing out even if you do nothing in year 11 you have a fresh start for year 12. So no[/B, no marks count towards year 12

Technically yes, but no it's not a good idea. Don't follow this guy.

I was not implying to do nothing, i was giving an example.

 

[Alkanes]

It was a very bad example.

Your year 11 marks and ranks are not accounted for in year 12.

 

[iRuler]

No

Year 11 marks and ranks go into the ether at the end of September.

But the way you learn counts. Work hard. Achieve.

Year 11 marks dont count towards your HSC, but its still important to do well. Many concepts you learn in year 11 will be expanded on in year 12 (especially true in subjects like economics and maths). Also, year 11 gives you the chance to fix any weaknesses in your study habits and work ethic, so you dont have to deal with these issues in year 12.

Also, kinda irrelevant but what internal rank do you need to get a Band 6 in something in Year 12? Also, how does Standard English affect your ATAR? I have to choose Standard, I'm hopeless at English, like really bad, just....bad. But if I get 90+ in Standard, can I get a band 6? This is very confusing to me.

 

[Protract]

If I choose Advanced, I'll be in a class with a whole lot of smart people who got A's and B's on their reports and my ranks are going to suffer badly. I'll probably come last.

 

[powlmao]

Standard english a band 6 is almost impossible, only about 20 in the state yet a band 6 every year

 

[Protract]

Also, I agree it is very important to rectify your weaknesses in Year 11 before Year 12 starts. I have practically bludged, and not cared about studies my whole high school life, I'm going to use Year 11 to fix that.

 

[Protract]

So I can't get a band 6 even if get 90+?

 

[enoilgam]

No, it is possible to get a band 6 in standard, but it is extremely difficult. Last year only 64 students out of 27,000 who did standard got a band 6.

 

[Alkanes]

90+ is a band 6. umad?

 

[Protract]

Is that because people who do Standard are no good?
