  • Is The Hsc A Game?
    By: Tis Amit | - You may have heard people call the HSC a game, or liken it to a game. Well there is an element of truth to this view, depending on how you look at it.

    In order for the HSC to be fair in ranking students for the purposes of University entry, a comprehensive system of HSC scaling is used, hence why we have the UAC and the notion of 'scaling' and 'scaled marks'. The scaling process itself is firmly justified mathematically, and is technically fair (to those who understand the mathematic ...

  • Minimising Human Error During Hsc Exams
    By: Tis Amit | - By virtue of its definition, human error is something we all do. In the more quantitative HSC subjects such as Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry, human error can be a big cause of losing marks in exams. For example, how often have you walked out of an exam room, and realise only moments later that you've lost a few marks in a question or two due to 'silly mistakes'? Or when, coming out of an exam room, you chat with your friends about how they did question X Y Z etc and realising you missed a t ...

  • Things That Can Go Wrong During Exam Day
    By: George Li | - Are you scared that on the morning of your HSC trials or actual HSC exam, something might happen that would affect your ability to do the exam? It is not too bad if something's serious enough to warrant an illness / misadventure claim. For example, if your train breaks down and it's verifiable over the news, or you're unable to attend due to some illness that can be documented by a medical certificate.

    But what about the little things that won't quite warrant a misadventure claim?

  • Atar To Replace All Uai's
    By: Tis Amit | - The UAC announced earlier this month that the UAI system will be replaced by the ATAR (Australian Tertiary Admissions Rank). The conversion of UAI to ATAR aligns NSW's system of measuring HSC performance for the purpose of university admissions to that of other states. The ATAR will replace all UAI's, starting with the year 12 students in 2009, and will be a rank-based score out of 99.95 (instead of 100.00).

  • Crammers Guide To Survival In Hsc Exams
    By: George Li | - Crammers guide to survival

    First we should say: do NOT cram if you have a choice. We do not recommend cramming as a sole solution to the HSC, as cramming definitely underperforms consistent study in the long run. However in life, unforeseen events happen and you may find yourself in a situation where you have only a few days, or even just 1 day, before a major exam.

    Often if something happens and it is of no fault of your own, the school may be lenient and make arrangeme ...

  • Developing Good Study Habits For Your Hsc
    By: Ashwani | - Studying consistently is important if you want a good HSC result. It is important to build up good study habits early on from your Preliminary year and sustain them until you complete your HSC. Cramming should not be thought of as an alternative to consistent study, but rather as a last resort. Students should not leave things to the last minute when doing things such as assignments, assessments and exam preparation.


    Of course, this all sounds typical and preachy, but it's al ...

  • How Your School's Rank Affects Your Hsc Results
    By: Amarendra | - If you are a student of a 'good' school (e.g. one that ranks in the top 50 in the state), you are not necessarily automatically advantaged in terms of how well you will do in your HSC. When your external exams and internal ranks are assessed to calculate your aligned marks and UAI, you will simply be a student number to the BOS. They don't take your school into account, so the fact that you go to a 'good' or 'bad' school will not have any direct bearing on how your papers are marked.
