HSC is kinda overrated people make it such a huge stressful thing but in reality it isnt much different from year 11 (except the marks do matter obviously) If ur someone who is eligible for early entry and performed decently well in year 11 then hsc is LIGHT for you unless you want to undertake... Student community for HSC and university students The HSC should never be the be-all, end-all of high school - it's a miserable existence enough in years 11 and 12, sacrificing every other experience (friendship, relationships, social life, hobbies, family) etc for the sake of an ATAR mark from year 7 would honestly amount to a form of self-harm in my book.
