Keen to meet you and debate further susie hahaha
But i'm a bit torn. Because i live in the blue mountains, to get to the lectures at UTS is an hour and a half on the train alone ONE WAY so its not worth heaps and heaps of trips, and given you're doing lectures for 5 of my 6 subjects, i'm torn about which ones to pioritise!!

Are these lectures going to be the same content as the ones that were available in October? Kinda tossing up whether going to these would be useful as I went to all of the ones for my subjects in October as well...

In general, definitely not because we don't want to defeat the purpose of another lecture

Hmmm definitely see your dilemma! Of course, every single lecture will be amazing (though I am obviously biased aha), so you can't make a bad decision no matter which way you swing it! I'd say, pick the subjects that you are either a) the most passionate about, or b) you're struggling with the most, so you can get the most out of the day

I do think missing out on Advanced English would be a shame though - Emily, the lecturer, came first in the state in 2016 with 100%! So if you can make it to that one, it'd definitely be worth it!

Can't speak for all of the other lectures, but Modern (which I noticed is in your subject list!  ) will be more focused on skills this time around We'll be doing a quick bit of revision for the last two section of the WW1 syllabus (the ones people forget aha), then launching straight into how to maximise your marks in multiple choice/short answer, the source analysis, how to adapt to different sources, essay structure, the different types of essays, how to develop a strong thesis, etc. etc. All the stuff you need to know to smash your first set of proper exams!

I'm most passionate about the business studies and modern history ones, but they're so far from the english and maths ones!
It's a shame, i'd like to see you deliver an awesome modern history lecture!! 
I think i might go on the 16th, because i can go to the advanced english and general maths ones (probably the two subjects im worst at hahahaha)

Now that you say its mostly gonna be about souirce analysis, i reckon i could give it a miss. Only because im pretty confident with it. I got 25/25 for my source based ww1 exam last term!! (Doing you proud!  )
