Title: Achieving 50
Post by: k0k0p0p on September 07, 2012, 10:08:09 pm
I know Food Tech scales down a lot but I am really passionate about it despite this.
I want to get into science, so need high 90s for my ATAR, which I won't be able to get with a score like 23 for food tech.
So far I have achieved full marks in all my SACs except for one in which I got 99/100.
Anyone have any recommendations for getting a 50?

Also, who is doing Food Tech this year as there don't seem to be many?
I know ATAR notes is definitely very science orientated, but food tech is not just eating food. There is a massive amount of theory and work involved.

Anyways....
Also, for anyone who is doing food tech, how are your folios going?
Any recomendations on how to ensure full marks in this as well?

Thanks!

Yeah I wondered at that as well. Even lower for a double in Ed/Sci and Monash Clayton.

Completely agree!

I am thinking of going to UoM, but had also considered the double Sci/Biomedicine at Monash. It seems I can do more on genetics and chemistry with Science though.

ATAR Notes is ran by the community, a large proportion of which do science, thus there are more people to contribute. If you feel like rectifying the problem you should submit notes on subjects like Food Tech and Outdoor Ed.

The majority of stuff on the site, the posts on the forums and notes section especially, is all student contributed. Take the initiative and start posting in the food tech / outdoor ed sections and also contribute where you can yourself. Maybe more students will notice and things will begin to pick up.

edit: beaten.
