Stop being paranoid. Ranks change on the regular.

In my school trials = 40%, so you stuff up, you're 1st can be 30th.

I jumped from 54th to 3rd then 1st.

I'm aiming to be 1st by the end of prelim :) just need to study a bit harder, my motivation and determination level is finally on 100% :D time to pwn!

my ranks in prelim english were pretty inconsistent.

2nd, =25th, 9th, 2nd. 5th overall.

quite the parabolic curve.

but some 4U maths kids came from absolutely nowhere and are pwning english [i.e. =1st].

Well I had a jump in ranks. Sure, a backward jump, but a jump nonetheless. Fifth in legal to fifty-first ... damn Mum spiking my coffee with vodka the morning of the half-yearly. :(

A guy I knew jumped 30 / 40 ranks in English from one 15% task.

My ranks didn't really vary in Year 12 (5 rank improvement at most).

I was enrolled in Standard English in the beginning of Year 11, but I told the head teacher that I had so much potential I didn't use in Year 10. I was ranked 69th/120 students, which is quite bad since most people in Year 10 at my school were dropkicks. I also received a band 4 in the SC English!

Now, in Advanced, I rank top 3-10 out of 30 or 40 Advanced students :D (low band 6 at most based on previous years). But I aim to improve upon that since I crammed a lot for English this year (I know I can do so much better to push it higher, so you can too OP!) :).

LOL your story is so inspirational :):). I'm in year 10 and I'm not doing as well as I could be in English. The fact that you're now coming in the top 3-10 out of 30 - 40 will inspire me to work harder :haha:
