How close are you to rank ?Like are you rank 2 by a difference of 1 mark per instance? I recall from 2023, the guy who got 1st in English Advanced ranked 3rd internally at NSB. I'm assuming there was not much of a difference betwen the ranks' respective distances. All this to say, is that rank is less important than rank distance. If at X high school, the difference between rank 1 and rank 200 (bottom rank) was 10 marks, and anyone within the cohort gets 100/100 in the external exam, all ranks 1-200 will get an assessment mark somewhere between 90 and 100 (you keep your exam mark).

our cohort is really small. in terms of that specific subject theres only 6 people...
between me (i'm rank 2) and rank one i think it's 1 or 2 marks no more than 5. top 3 only differ by a couple marks, it's always a constant shift between the three of us after every exam. but yeah cumulatively i'm rank 2

That's good then. That means you won't be too negatively affected.

did the second question say to write for OR against or for AND against
i genuinely dont remember
i read it as or..

I think it said to write if you are for or against the plan. It wouldn't really make sense if it were the other way since it was kind of a personal response per se

How do you feel you went?

 

[yourbestfriend]

What did you get last year? How did you feel you went because I have no idea how to gauge how i'll go

i got 88 which was in the 95th percentile if i remember correctly.
but honestly dont stress if you feel that you did bad because i walked out of there thinking i actually failed, but ended up doing alright
what were the questions?

 

[yourbestfriend]

Nooooo, I love paper one with my whole heart. F paper 2

[reniiiblaseee]

can any past graduates give stories of how they were completely cooked for english right b4 hsc and ended up getting 80+

 

[KellyMc]

ok thank goodness
cos i came home and thought abt it and thought i stuffed up cos it said and

Haha. Wait how much did you write for each one

 

[KellyMc]

i think it was quite good
i wrote gibberish
but i hope they like gibberish
the e-scooter thing i didnt know what to write for weaknesses tho
what u write?

Oop, I said it was mostly weak because it appealed to emotions and only used one evidence that directly tied to its argument. I said it was strong in persuading its audience as it draws on the vulnerabilities through personal anecdotes and vivid imagery. But yea,h i said he lacked credibility and support from statistical evidence. I also said how his prioritisation of simplicity over saftey was questionable

i was so ass at eng, rank was horrid (cant remember exactly but i remember for trials i cried in class coz i got like 69% and my rank for that trial was in the bottom 50%)

anyway for the hsc I tried perfecting my essays and memorised a base general essay for every mod and I memorised a few extra quotes just in case, and for short answer (I was actually so ass i always failed that at school or got lower than avg) I kept on practicising with other school/trial/hsc papers and would cmpare my answer with the sample answer and see the difference/take note of what I was missing

I ended up getting an 85 so yeah not as great as what others have gotten here but I think it was way better than what I was expecting

 

[KellyMc]

u?

Yes similar, like average 950
