FSN 2007 Results Discussion

[isit]

Thanks guys, i spoke to my vce coordinator, and she told me to come see her later today, to discuss my options, most likely it'll be to repeat vce, but hey i dont mind, its just my parents who really hurt my feelings

Hi Odette, don't despair. If you really want to repeat VCE, I suggest you may consider Distance Education Centre Victoria (http://www.distance.vic.edu.au/), since you've said that your school has really poor VCE results.  I got an enter of 40.6 last year. My school refused to let me repeat. My mum found DECV and enrolled me for VCE (only year 12). I got an enter of 82 this year (Furthermaths:43, VisComm: 40, H&HD: 37, ESL: 32), screwed up ESL but that's an immense improvement on last year. DECV is distance learning, you must be hardworking and consistent to get good results, but I think they have very organised course materials. If you follow their courses closely, submitted all homework and SACs, I think you'll do much better than I. My english hinders me a lot. Cheer up. It's not the end of the world.

repeating year 12 = worst thing i could possibly imagine

the thought of going through the same shit all over again makes me sick to my stomach

if you really want something there are other ways to go about it that will see you suceed

what do u want to do?

what was your enter range? below 70? or above 70?

[costargh]

You can always do VCE at a TAFE.

Or different school?
I wouldnt advise the same school to be honest

[melanie.dee]

cant you do maybe a few subjects part time? cos you hardly need to do everything again considering some of the awesome scores you already have!

[bilgia]

Odette, dont repeat year12..
Unless u got an enter of 60 or less

[Eriny]

Maybe you're overreacting?
Whatever it is, it can't be that bad! You aren't going to mess up your future at all (that's impossible at our age). Your parents are just being unreasonable.

[joshuamorgan]

Out of curiosity, what are your parents occupations?

Well that means more then 60 % of my school lol

The average FSN ENTER is 95.868. (25 results used).

Well done FSN! 

[costargh]

You could do something like 2-3 subjects (repeated) work part time and use this year as a sorta "break" year because there would be less stress and stuff. Also you could save up some money to help start paying off Uni which you WILL get into either this year or 09.

Bit misleading lol. Obviously people who have recieved higher ENTERs are more inclined to post their scores. I would say it would be hovering around low 90's.

Well I want to do teaching, so it's quite hard to find a course that will help me with that... i've been doing some research and i might do a diploma in accounting/business management/IT then hopefully transfer into teaching..

If not I'll just repeat year 12...

Oh and my dad apologised to me, surprisingly..

Thanks for the support everyone, I appreciate (please dont think im trying to get attention or anything though, coz im not, it's just really disappointing)

[Odette]

My parents?
Um well they don't have the best jobs, and thats why they wanted me to do well, so that i could get a better job...
Mum's an admin manager and dad's a factory worker..

yeah thats a good way. how hard is it to get into that diploma course???

both ur parents should apologise to you, and have a good hard look at themselves.

[Odette]

Not really hard, only requirement is that you've completed vce... which i have done already
My mum called and asked to see how i was doing earlier, but she didnt apologise..
Hmm I dunno maybe she's just a little stubborn or something
