Hi atar notes! I had a few questions which i hope you dont mind answering for me please
firstly when will you next set of lectures be for the HSC course? they are amazing like i cant tell how helpful useful and insightful they are and i just want more more and more of them
secondly. do you have any plans of opening an NSW Tutesmart? it seems really cool and ill really like it but it is for the VCE.
and lastly, are you going to make and HSC topic test books for other subjects and if so which ones? if possible could you please try for maths and bio please?

Aw, you are too kind, SO glad they are so useful for you! ;D the next set of lectures will be in July (almost definitely the holidays) right before most people do their Trial Exams! And they will be bigger and better than ever before ;D

Never say never, it's a really cool idea that has been received amazingly by VCE students ;D

And just adding, I got the chance to visit the centre for the first time earlier in the year. So. Bloody. Awesome. So I'd be super keen to see it here, that's for sure ;D

HSC Topic Tests books are coming for other subjects!

Math? Yep ;D
Bio? Yep ;D

And we'll let you know as those become available, but they are in the pipeline! :)

Congratulations! And don't worry too much, in pretty much every subject, including English, I inevitably ran out of time and had to cut things out and it very rarely (I actually can't remember a situation!) brought my mark down, at least in any significant, noticeable way. I'm sure you did fantastically!

Hi! Sorry if this isn't the right thread but I'm super confused about ranks and ATAR stuff at the moment because people are telling me 2 different things: It's all about the rank, whoever comes first in the year for that subject takes the highest mark in the HSC (aka steals a mark if theirs isnt the highest)
OR
It has nothing to do with the rank, its an individual thing, no one steals your mark.
I have zero idea which is true! Does anyone know?
Thank you so much <3

Hey! I personally think the ATAR Notes Study Notes are amazing for both Legal and Business, but of course, I am a biased person ;D definitely worth considering though!

I had the Excel book for Legal - In honesty I didn't use it much beyond a quick reference here or there, definitely great if you are the sort of person that likes having multiple in depth sources! It just didn't personally offer me much that the textbook didn't have :) never used the Dotpoints books but have heard they are good!
