same bruh my school as at eng std we have like 1 b6 5 years, but somehow for eng adv we always consistently have like 25+ b6 for it idk how my school does ts. Oh for math ext 1 and 2 those stats are consistent

same for eng, idk abt math
but apparently its easier to get b6 in adv than standard??? no idea how that works ngl

cuz like lowk kids in eng adv try harder yk, and most selective schools do eng adv so like lowk scaling pushes it up. Most of the kids in eng std in my school are eshays who just dont try, most kids in eng adv for my school try a lot

 

[imnotrj]

Well yeah if everyone flops then that's going to have the same effect as removing the question but the few people who get the marks will have major benefits from that

no but i'd rather have everyone flop in this q bc i think i did average to well, but honestly u never know their next move the whole faculty is genuinely so evil and with the responses esp, if u miss a word or whatever, mark OFF

i got cooked in the action potential section so i hope the last section carries me

hm, depends on classes too ngl

 

[imnotrj]

Thats completely normal the only way I get around that is writing way more than required

and that's where they also will say 'write more concise responses'...

for internals, we're cooked anyway but lowkey i think moderation will carry us if top10 get b6 in hsc

 

[imnotrj]

They don't do that in hsc..... They look for the information, not how you display it. That's why for comparisons you can use tables and stuff instead of writing it all as a paragraph

my school is a lil too extra
no but i get it why they say that, if you're concise you can clearly state your points without fluffing, so u also don't waste time

 

[imnotrj]

Somehow not a problem though, I usually always manage to finish with a really good chunk of time left to sit there and ponder

luckyyyyy

yh im of course generalising not targeting anyone, but this is the reason my teacher said its harder for like people who try in eng std to get a b6 they literally get dragged down by others not their fault or cuz their effort is lacking

wait even top10 get dragged down??? HOLY

 

[Jaros]

I hate them, get them deported to studdies istg. Thats one thing my school did right and still we arent seeing a net improvement. Everyone is so unbothered, like does it escape them that getting less than 80 in standard kinda butchers your atar......

bruh deadass without eshays my school could easily make top 80 schools in the state. Literally the top end of my school is so cracked, last year alone we had like 7 99 ATAR students

 

[Jaros]

wait even top10 get dragged down??? HOLY

yh this the main reason i didnt do standard, cuz lowk coursework in eng adv is not THAT much harder but the scaling benefits are legit so much better its not even close in the scaling

 

[Jaros]

BRO WTH HOW ARENT U GUYS..... My schools [125, 150] and we had 2 99.5+ atar students and like 9 90+ in total thats so ass (as a whole for the grade)

bro im telling u last year we had like 40-50 kids get above 90 ATAR but these eshays bro they just dont even TRY like its so annoying they drag the avg down so MUCH. Also another reason my school does poorly overall is cuz many people choose like sciences and higher levels of math and english when they genuinely shouldn't be doing it. Like im not being a jerk or anything, but there is this one girl in my ext 2 math class and she can't even solve basic 3u math induction or do ext trig identities like genuinely u should NOT be doing ext 2

 

[Jaros]

Main change is the texts, most other things stay pretty similar

yh and the marking becomes harsher thats it, both of u could have easily done eng adv

 

[Jaros]

thats lowk not even bad, if u make top 10 ur chilling for like UNSW what u tryna do?

 

[Jaros]

mining engineering + Bio&Biodiversity

thats pretty cool, idk abt that specific engineering aslong as u do like adv math or above ur fine

 

[imnotrj]

thats beautiful

 

[Jaros]

As my signature implies I got murdered for math..... I'm like 16th now before at2 I was in the top 10

yo its chill dw, u got trials and HSC for math adv lowk spamming past papers will get u full marks

no way whaattt, a 1/3 of last yrs cohort i think 50 something students got 90+

u guys could choose what level u wanted to do?

 

[Jaros]

u guys could choose what level u wanted to do?

well yeah? isnt that the case for everyone like u choose what course u want to do. Obviously the teacher recommended stuff but ultimately it was upto you. I had a friend in adv eng who was scoring 25% he eventually dropped but he was let in.
