HSC Major Works, The HSC- Major Work!

And the fated day has arrived ;D With the HSC results and ATAR finally out, I can't help but admit that I have been on a constant high since receiving them. I was thoroughly impressed by my performance and completely underestimated how I would go. It has been a long but meaningful journey for me with the major works and to see them be rewarded so highly was fantastic!
I'll start with Music since it had the lowest score subject-wise. I was predicting an 80 for Music 2 based on my internal performance and was happy to see an 83 HSC mark :) It was a struggle for me competing against seasoned musicians and I'm glad that all those extra hours of study leading up to the HSC made the difference in the end. I am curious to see where the marks were rewarded so I hope I can access those results somehow (preferably without having to pay a ridiculous amount for them).
For Visual Arts, I scored a 93 which also exceeded my expectations of a predicted 90! I was worried about my BOW not receiving a Band 6 worthy mark because my teachers both thought it would be a hit or miss with the markers so it was a massive relief to see that score ::) I'm pleased to know that I was capable of receiving such a mark despite having little practical talent joining the course in Year 11 :D
Society and Culture was twinning with VA with a 93 as well! I definitely think most of my marks came from the PIP because I know I lost a few in the exam from silly mistakes. I was over the moon to see myself getting Band 6's in them because I worked ridiculously hard to balance these two in particular with the gross amount of content that came with their subjects ;D
Finally, let me just say that 'Vivace' was superb! I was particularly pleased with my Extension 2 Major Work receiving a 48 exam mark because I feared the poetry markers for NESA greatly. It was great to feel validated by the markers as to the quality of my Major Work. I had always been writing poetry in secret and to see it perform so well was surreal. I ended up scoring a 46 after averaging with my assessment mark and got a solid E4 for a subject I was told I would not succeed in initially by a lot of people 8)
That's all from me today about the results! I hope everyone is happy with theirs and is getting into the course they aim to get in. I will continue updating in this thread on my activities until university commences in which I will then shift elsewhere to continue sharing my creative journeys! Have a great weekend, all! ;D

Big day for everyone with UAC offers coming out so I'll keep my entry nice and short today 8) I am more than happy to inform you all that after a long wait and thirteen years of schooling, I have decided that I want to only return to high school and pursue teaching! I was offered a place at the Conservatorium of Music which has been my dream university ever since I first visited campus many years ago. It has been an intense few years cramming music theory to accelerate myself into a position of potentially being considered, despite not starting music from an early age, and pursuing numerous essay writing subjects to prepare me for tertiary study. I can now say it has all been well worth it!
I will be studying the Bachelor of Music (Music Education) (BPMUMEDU1000) course full time and was recently informed that I have also been offered a scholarship of $6000 for my first year ;D ;D This was based on my surprise of an ATAR, as well as the quality of my Musicology essay that I submitted in my portfolio as a requirement for my application. I was thrilled to hear that I was offered and just confirmed my acceptance now :) All I have to do now is wait to enrol and I'll be on my way into a new chapter of my life 8) Exciting times ahead! I hope everyone else got into their courses :)
Toodles,
Angelina ;D

Thank you so much to the both of you! ;D I’ll definitely be keeping a journal. Jamon gave me the idea of titling it Conservatorium Crusades so I’ll more than likely go with that for it ;D I’ll commence it on my start day on the 24th of February 8)
