I was ranked first in all my subjects except for General Maths which I was ranked 2nd. The teachers at TAFE are great & are very dedicated in providing...

Business Studies 91 (was almost certain I wasn't going to get a Band 5 because I messed up my extended response. So to see a Band 6 was shocking- in a good way) General Mathematics 89 (Dammit! lol) Legal Studies 86 Modern History 74 (Can't complain, didn't study much for it. Struggled with...

http://bettereducation.com.au/Results/Hsc1Page.aspx ALL 800 or so schools. Quick question: Why do they fail to include TAFE in the top 800 schools? I know for a fact the tafe I went to got a minimum of 8 Band 6's. Such a shame the Board of Studies fail to recognise TAFE's achievements...

All the ATAR calculators I tried (about 3) gave me an ATAR between 80-81. So it was kind of annoying when i got 79.55.

I received an email as well from UWS for the early offer rounds =)

the assessments at TAFE are set very similar to school and the questions (especially in exams) are similar to HSC styled questions.

shady145 - lol i enjoy maths and english q3thefish - lol to your comment bettina44 - thanks for replying.. but why do they begin year 12 half way through the year and how can they teach the year 12 syllabus properly with only half a year?:S

hollaholla - not a science person at all lol... zedez - i'm not sure which TAFE i plan on attending I'm just wondering if TAFE run preliminary courses that are completed within a few months

I have decided to leave year 12 and sit the HSC next year at TAFE. Now the subjects i completed in the preliminary course were: english standard, general mathematics, hospitality, business studies, sor 1 unit and ancient history (I am eligible to continue these subjects for year 12 studies)...

appreciate your estimates :)
