It depends on each year and which companies

Generally, >90% I guess

I'm very close to beginning, you really need to finish the course before you begin them. I am in the last chapter of the textbook and am confident in everything except I want to go over discrete random variables again. A+ cut-off ranges from 35-37 marks out of 40 on exam 1.
Subjects
2012: English [37], Biology [41], Specialist Maths [33], Methods [39], Physics [37]; ATAR [94.65]
2013-2015: BSc. at UoM

Already started. Just start as soon as possible.
Questions from the textbook and exam questions are completly different so don't waste your time doing every single question from your book or even from 2 books.
^paulsterio only did the chapter-reviews from his textbook and ended up getting a 49

Doing every single question from textbook doesnt waste of time if you dont have basic knowledge.
You need to understand the concepts and how to solve it before doing doing trials.

Different person has different methods of studying, it works for this person, it doesnt mean it can work for others in the same way.
Paul only does chapter-review, its his way of studying! You are the one who finds out which way is the best for your exam preparation.

Why do you have to follow his method just because he got 49 raw score?
