Probably English. C+ to B+ grades from year 7-9 but for some reason I improved drastically in Year 10-12 with A+ being my average

The awesome feeling of beating Paulsterio in English and Spech after he bagged me all year for:
1. dropping english language and picking up english in year 12
2. bragging about his no.1 sac ranking for spech

:P :P :P :P :P

lol jks.. he has the last laugh cause he raped me in umat and got into med.. D:

but seriously.. if you told me i was gonna get 43 in english at the start of the year i would have literally cracked up cause i hadnt had any good english teachers all through high school and was also picking it up with pretty much no idea of how to write a proper essay..

and also pretty much winged the end of year exams for spech (cause i had accounting on the same day as exam 2) and got really lucky with how easy it was..

English. I've always had reasonable skills but I was lazy as fuck when it came to writing essays. Blatantly copied a sample essay in year 10 and received a low for it. Ever since then I've improved my game.

Considering the circumstances I had, I'm VERY fortunate to walk away with a 37 in English (A,A,A). Would have been even higher if teachers cross-marked SACs.

Accounting-
got like a 76% on my yr 11 end of year exam, but i forgot my calculator

Methods also saw LOTS of improvement, thanks to certain people changing my perspective on maths.

English didnt improved a lot too,
my english teacher was awesome, probably the best in the state and i'd bet $100 probably top 10 in this country if you could rank english teachers



i have an accounting group presentation due tomorrow. not even half way through it yet. longgg night ahead

@English: Year 7 till year 10, I averaged A+'s throughout — no effort at all. This year, it feels as if I'm falling significantly, receiving B/B+'s. My teacher is new to the school, and unfortunately is very lazy and somewhat very naive. I hope for this to improve throughout the year progressively or maybe I should just continue putting no effort at all and perform all I can. I'll strive harder in Year 12. @Biology, definitely. I was very uninterested in it and lacked momentous knowledge, although this year I seem to be doing exceptionally well than I expected. From C's and D's, to B+'s and A's thus far. I hope to maintain these marks. I'll be happy with a 40+ SS for Biology, it will suffice.
