Generally yes they are, but that's not necessarily true. One girl that got 100 last year (Melissa Chen) did only 2U Maths (granted she got a State Ranking of 8th but still). So yeah. They tend to be good at at maths because James Ruse is traditionally good at Maths/Sciences. Also, through hard work/tutoring or whatever they work really really hard on English so that they can get 100. I'm kidna the opposite though. I'm good at english but I'm working really really hard on Maths (it still lags behind my English but the gap is closing). Thing is I'm not a top Ruse student as I'm not top 10 for everything. (I'm not top 10 for anything except Modern which only has 19 kids).
