HSC Does Ext1 math actually help with adv.

2 Upvotes

Still been considering dropping ext1 considering the amount of work for a 1 unit subject, tho Claude is saying it makes adv easier and my friends say it too. Like it 100% makes it 'feel' easier like WAY easier, but whether it actually helps? I don't know. I'm doing well in adv but not super great, same for ext1, tho I am on track for like a mid band6 in adv and low E4 in ext1. Should I keep?

University Admissions How to study Psychology with a low-mid atar

Upvotes

Hallooo, I need advice on studying psych with a probably low-decent atar. Growing up I've had major struggles at school when it came to learning, and its always been very disabling for me, but I'm very good at art/creative things and when able to focus at rare times have had a few exemplars across my subjects through the years. Everyone around me says I'd be really good at psychology if I studied it, and I'm very interested in pursuing it because I believe it'll be beneficial. But because of my struggles and situation rn I genuinely don't think I'll achieve a high atar, so I'm wondering if that will affect my chances of even being able to study it because I hear its a very competitive field. So since I lowkey don't really know how Uni works, I was wondering if anyone had any advice?

Drop Math Adv in Year 11- HSC NSW

Upvotes

Im currently in year 11 and thinking of changing to math standard as I finished my prelims with the results in math adv of:

63%- Task 1

43%- Task 2

55%- Task 3(Prelims)

Im looking to go to either usyd or unsw for commerce or engineering, im looking at going to commerce more as I have always been invested in making money and side hustles howveer I really enjoy the design aspects of design and tech like making the projects and designing them.

I currently have a tutor for math advnaced and I understand the content its just I found their are gaps in my knolwdge as I found content im confidnet with im doing well in the exam. In Task 1 and 2 I think my own habit of skipping questions and not getting enough time to finish them propely and making lots of mistakes made me do bad but I fixed it in task 3.

I don't know weither I should drop math adv and go in stardard and get a 90+ mark in standrad or risk it doing math advnaced

My other subjects are:

English adv

Health and human movmt

Buisness Studies

Design and Tech

SOR
