Hey everyone!
So as the title basically suggests, I will not get bogged into details. Yep, he's that bad.
For the past 7 chapters, he either gives us a single paper which essentially has all you need to know OR he either indulges in our little debates in class. Tried to approach him but... didn't go so well. So for the past 4 SACS, I have been trying to teach myself the daunting content but feel too overwhelmed. Right now I have an average of 75-80% and am either rank 1 or 2, so is it possible to achieve a study score of 35? How can I maximise my study and approach new content in order to excel in this somewhat intriguing subject? Oh yeah, no body has ever scored above 35 raw with this guy.
Thanks Ya'll!!!!!!!!!!!

If your teacher is as bad as you make him out to be, I would be complaining to someone high up that can take action. You should not be suffering as a result of this.
I've done a few lengthy essays on here about students saying their teacher is bad.... so I won't retype it here. But if you seriously believe he is *that* bad, elevate your concerns.

I had a simillar situation when I was in year 12 so I tried to teach myself content via youtube videos or random websites. If I couldnt understand something tho I would just bug other teachers in my school who were better than my teacher. Like don't feel embarassed to approach other teachers or even your teacher out of class time, thats what you are paying for. Annoy them until you understand because the worst it to find out during SWOTVAC that you have gaps in your knowledge. So I recommend you look for youtube videos and other online materials, there is plenty out there, or you can ask other teachers at your school. If you aren't able to teach yourself and there are no teachers available, I would recommend getting a tutor. Good tutors can be found for quite cheap by getting someone who completed VCE a year prior so they still have an understanding fresh in their minds and too young to charge big dollars. I recommend getting a past student from your school who did well as they would have been in a very similar situation to you and might have some insight. Bad teachers is not an excuse for a poor vce result as there are plenty of resources out there to help you.
