Hey everyone, my school does half yearlies quite early so we are getting results back now. I'm a weird mixture of happy and disappointed with how I'm going.
My results/ranks were:
English Extension: 22/25 for critical, 20/25 for creative, 84% and 1/8
3u maths: 81% 3/6
2u maths: 94% 1/27
French continuers: 72% 5/5 (all the others were in the 70's apart from one person who got 92)
Economics: 96% (lost 2 marks in multi's and 1 in the essay) 1st
Advanced english: 19/20 for module A essay 15/15 SA's 14/15 creative, 96%, 1st
Overall I'm quite happy because I know I did my best, but now I need to work on improving my results for trials. I'm worried but also not worried about french, its a very strong class (1st: mum is french teacher, dad is french, lived in and went on exchange to france, studied french since year 8, 2nd: is swiss-french, mum tutors hsc students, lived in switzerland for past 4 years, 3rd: is also french, until last year spend 3 months of each year in monaco, 4th: went on exchange to france for 6 months, 5th: (me) studied it as an elective from partway through year 10).
Obviously its quite hard to beat any of the others, I'm doing my best and doing lots of practice papers, reading books in french and watching films. My teacher does usually get external results way above internals so i'm not too stressed.
Her beginners class the other year:
(internals/externals)
1st: 90/96
2nd: 81/96
3rd: 72/90
4th: 68/89
generally about 19% of beginners get a band 6 and 30% of continuers. I'm hoping for a band 6, but ideally 94??
Is it possible? Should I be worried? Particularly for french what else can i do? But also for other subjects does anyone have advice?
THank you!!!!
