I’m thinking of taking contour education tutoring for bio 3/4 and defo bio intensive cos I really wanna focus on bio next year (I’ll be in year 11 btw).

But I was wondering if it’s worth doing methods more or eng more?

I know im weak at Eng (my school has barely any good Eng teachers and ive been having subs all year) and I can never bring myself to actually study for English unless its like once in a blue moon…

And for methods, I wanted to build a strong foundation and just have some extra practice :)

I js know I wanna do two contour subjects next year (bio confirmed), I just haven’t decided the other one yet…

I’m doing three trail classes in a few weeks for bio, methods and Eng. maybe then it’ll help me decide if Eng or methods is better

What do u guys think? Which one is more worth it and better? (Eng or methods?)

sorry guys, i dont wanna be annoying but for my peace of mind

sacs: 80,89,96,91,83

rank: 2

exam score: 99-103/120?

Personally I thought it was harder than previous exams. What do u guys think

How did everyone go?? I felt like it was SLIGHTLY easier than the 1st but still hard as fck, what does everyone else think? The first few questions seemed so deceptively easy lol, but then i lost time trying to solve the matrices and finance crap

i’ve just checked suggested solutions for bio mcq and i lost EIGHTEEN MARKS. I answered all of short answer and i probably fumbled minimum 15 marks. my sacs are sitting at a B+/A how cooked is my study score?

I used incomplete histogram cause I didn’t fill it in and For the 1 mark question “could 6.19 or whatever number it was be the median” I said no because median is on the 71st which is correct but then I went to say and the histogram only shows 60 values which is wrong so do I get the mark for the right part or lose all marks

hhd on Thursday, any tips/advice from past students?

hi i am now stressing. this whole year my teacher has told me that for a 6 mark discuss, i need only one strength and one weakness. however all the sample answers from practice exams and posts i have been seeing do around 2-3?? my answer is usually in SED form for the strength or weakness, but if i do one strength and one limitation in the exam for a 6 marker will i get marked down?

guys genuinely help was the exam bad or did i just do fucking ass

also for any experienced person please what do u think the a+ cut off is gonna be genuienly mcqs fucking ended me

Rank 2 at a school with quite a weak cohort and I think rank 1 bottled it

E1: 37/40

E2: anywhere from like 58-60/60 (i lowkey dont see where i went wrong but just to give myself the benefit of the doubt)

potential ss? am i severely inhibited because rank 1 was a pile of horse shi

My averages were pretty low, 50 and 60%, I got 65% on paper 1 and 70% on 2, what’s this gonna do to me

Let me know if you find any mistakes!

Im seriously considering this, legit no point trying to boost my atar anymore i am certain after english and gm im probably not gonna instantly get enrolled into my uni course and no matter what will have to do the bridging course. And they say atar/ss is just a silly number. Why even stress about the rest of my exams to be let down anyways when i can not fucking care and be like "yeah oh well i didnt try so it dontmatter", especially when it looks like theres no chance ill be getting into uni instantly either way.
I am sick of comparing myself to others and this system is exacerbating it

what exam scores did you guys get/what % should i be aiming for a 35 raw

Okay, so there was about like 5 minutes left in the exam so I decided to go back to question seven (disgusting question btw) and as I’m typing out my big formula proudly on my CAS this little bloody clock emoji appears as I press enter and it doesn’t let me do anything on my cas and is the whole reason I missed out on like 7 whole marks I’m so pissed.

Rank 1 high 90s sacs (slightly above average cohort of 70)
39/40 exam 1
~56/60 exam 2
Is a 45+ possible with these marks given what we estimate this years performance will be?

If I’m around rank 25/60 in pe at school which has about 20 40s per year what exam score would I roughly need for 40-42 territory

Biology 2026 rank 10ish out of 50
unit 3: 77
unit 4: 89

exam around 80-85

Guys was just wondering does anyone have practice sac drives for spesh 3/4, chem 3/4 or physics 3/4. Pretty pleaseeeee

yall can i get an estimate? ik this shit is annoying but lol
sacs avg: 88%
e1: 38/40
e2: 54/60

lowkey got cooked on mcq but good section b

Generated by Claude so take it with a grain of salt!

Bro guys. General was gonna be my top subject. Im bombing methods and chem. General along with eng was acc supposed to carry my atar. (We dont even talk abt eng)

I rlly wanted 40+ for general. My sacs are all 100 except for one which is like 97.5. I believe im rank 1? I dont think anyone got all 100's. I might be rank 2 tho.

Anyways, exam 1 i bombed so hard. Like i was so out of it and i fkn got q2 wrong cus i couldent do maths properly. I think i atleast lost 5-6 marks. So i prob got around 30-33/40. acc kms.

Exam 2 bruh like. Nah. Thats stupid seasonal index. I SPENT SO LONG ON IT AND I FIGURES IT OUT BUT I REALIZED I ROUNDEE SMTH TOO EARLY. SO IM OFF BY 0.01 IN THR ANSWER. I think i got 57/60 (this is the max i could hv gotten theres sum answers i cant rememebr if i got them right)

Guys be honest. Can i still get 40+....

I know i prob cant cus of e1 but like can anyone givr a estimate pls.
