Since publication of the UAC guide there have been some changes to Architecture courses at UNSW, and there is now a bonus points scheme at UTS for some of its courses, but not Law or Communications. See the relevant websites or Ms Kossy for details. There are a variety of changes at Macquarie University.

If you are already a disciplined, methodical student who has done plenty of preparation, then stop stressing. All you need to do is to keep up your usual effort. But if you are someone who has always left things until the last minute and are still promising that you’ll get organised and start studying SOON, well now IS the last minute! Stop wasting time on this website and go study! Best wishes to you all! You are welcome to come and see me any time during Term 4, so I expect to see you around.

Calling all young writers. Are you an aspiring political correspondent?

Vibewire is looking for writers with a sound knowledge of Australian politics and a solid understanding of the key issues of the election who can write about these issues in an interesting and engaging manner. Writers will have to work to very tight deadlines.

To apply to be an ElectionTracker you must be 24 years of age or under and an Australian citizen. You must be available to be away from home for one of the two weeks leading up to the election. All short listed applicants will be invited to submit features, opinion pieces, interviews and other contributions to the ElectionTracker site, the number one site for election coverage, reportage, commentary and discussion by Australians aged 16-30.

J. Kossy Careers Adviser janet.kossy@education.nsw.gov.au To all SGGHS students and families:
I hope you are taking advantage of the Open Days at the universities. The season of these Open Days is now in full swing, so check the dates on this website or in the school gazette, check details on the uni websites, and enjoy! See me if you have any questions before or after your visit.
Year 12
I hope you are on track organising your applications as well as completing your courses and preparing for the HSC. For some of you, part of the external exam is already achieved!
This is a busy time for me, too, so you may not be able to get an appointment at the last minute. If you are flexible, we can find a time, but please remember to cancel as early as possible if something prevents you from coming. That way another student may be able to take your place.
Achievement Plan
Your Personal Achievement Plan Supplement is now due!!!! Please see me about an appointment if you are having trouble with it.
Scholarship applications and school reports
One-page summary reports for your Year 11 Yearly, Year 12 Half-yearly and Trials will be issued to you at the end of week 8 or beginning of week 9. You will be able to make copies and get them certified by me so you can include them in your scholarship applications.
References from teachers
Please do not ask a teacher to write you an “unofficial” school reference. The school has a firm policy of issuing the reference on your graduation day, and your teachers do not have time to write an individual reference as well. It is unfair to ask them to do so. For the Sydney University scholarship application, or any other application which mentions an optional reference, please see me for a letter to send them, explaining our policy. You will not be disadvantaged in the allocation of scholarships.
Equity Scholarships
Please see me if you receive Youth Allowance. Youth Allowance recipients should apply for an Equity Scholarship as well as the EAS scheme. I have applications. (If you do not receive a Centrelink benefit, you are not eligible for an Equity Scholarship.)
