Study Smarter, Not Harder,
In The Lead Up To Your HSC

And Gain A Competitive Advantage

Too many students think there is only ONE way to succeed in the HSC, and they don’t take the time to trial and learn different study strategies to optimise their personal strengths and weaknesses. Read more…Read less

For example, some people are most efficient at 6.00pm, while others peak at 6.00am. Some students stick to strict routines while others are more fluid. There is no silver bullet for achieving a 99.95 ATAR, but there are proven strategies that do work.

Every student has their own style of studying. What works for one student doesn’t always work for another. This is no different for Richard Chua, the founder of Talent 100, and his panel of 99.95 ATAR Talent 100 Mentors who all employ their own study strategies. Some of these strategies will be more relatable than others and will help you prepare for your final years of high school and the HSC.

What were your most unique and effective study strategies?

During my time in high school, I had a unique study strategy that really helped me. The first was being able to break down the ATAR into subject-specific goals, which we talk about in our ‘Secrets of the HSC’ Seminar. That actually shows you where you need to rank in the state to get a specific ATAR – for example, if you’re doing Maths Ext 2, you need to be roughly average to be on track for 99. But I took this a step further to figure what I needed inside my school, Sydney Grammar School. There are two ways to do this.

1. Use your school’s past data to figure this out: The easiest way to do this is to ask your Director of studies what past students have achieved. For instance, if you know 20 students in your school last year scored an HSC mark above 97 for Maths Ext 1, you have a much more specific target to set yourself. As this information wasn’t freely available for me, I ended up surveying about 20 students in the year above me to figure out what ranks they got in each subject.

2. Estimate it based on publicly available information: If it’s too hard to get this information from your school, you can get a rough estimate by looking at how many students in your school score a band 6. That’s available on the Board of Studies website. For instance, if 10% of students in the state score a band 6 in Physics, but 30% of people in your school score a Band 6, you know your school is roughly 3x better than average. So now you know that top 10% of your school = top ~3% of the state.

How important is it to stay balanced in the HSC? What did you do to remain balanced?

EXTREMELY IMPORTANT. So many kids cut out everything at the start of Year 12. Sports, social activities etc. and they would study hours a day. But in those hours, they were generally not efficient. Parkinson’s law – work expands to fill available time. Retaining extra curricular activities and sports keeps your brain fresh, keeps you efficient in your study, keeps you motivated…

GARETH, ATAR 99.95

I was always pretty motivated during the HSC, and when I wasn’t (and there are times when you’ll lose sight of the light at the end of the tunnel) – well that’s what mothers are for! You have to be realistic though – having a backup plan if you don’t get the ATAR you want is comforting…

FRANK, ATAR 99.95

I had a strict ritual before exams. While most people spend time doing last minute studying, I spent time getting pumped up and listening to motivational music. To me, that was wrestling theme songs but you should really do anything that gets you pumped before the exam…

FAQs

At Talent 100, we call all of our teachers and tutors ‘Mentors’, because they do so much more than simply teach content. They guide our students to HSC success year after year.

The Talent 100 Academic Team comprehensively understands the HSC system and how to succeed in it because almost all of our Mentors have topped the state or achieved a state rank in their area of subject matter expertise. Most have scored an ATAR above 99.85 or have achieved unparalleled academic or teaching success. Talent 100 Mentors will show you in exacting detail what it takes to succeed in each subject.

Talent 100 teachers will help you maximise your ATAR through their:

  • Outstanding academic merit – Getting the very best marks requires having detailed and specific knowledge of the HSC syllabus. Talent 100 Mentors have achieved unparalleled success in the HSC and can use their specific knowledge to help you.
  • Effective communication and strong leadership skills – This ensures the theory can be taught to you in a way you will understand.
  • Passion for teaching and improving your marks – They understand how significant your HSC is in influencing your university course options and, ultimately, your career path, so they are committed to doing whatever it takes to get you there.

There are many places where you can get good tuition for HSC subjects. However, Talent 100 is unique in its approach to results-focused teaching and learning. The results speak for themselves with Talent 100 students topping the state every year since we were founded.

At Talent 100, we help students study smarter, not harder, in the lead up to and during their HSC. We teach you exactly what you need to know in order to score top marks, and we’ll help you be exam-ready when it counts because our course programs are designed to help you prepare for exams all year round.

We have a very strong results focus that seeks to maximise ATARs. Rather than encouraging you to devote your energy evenly across all your subjects, we show you how to allocate your time efficiently to the higher-scaling subjects that need more attention. Acing the HSC is about picking your battles, not just winning them.

Our style of teaching is highly results-focused. Our system of seminars and tutorials helps you develop a deep understanding of the concepts required. We comprehensively cover every single dot point, including practicals and research required in the sciences, which other tuition colleges skip. More importantly, our system of teaching is concise and practical. We’ll teach you exactly how to structure your responses to particular question types, with answers written by students who came first in the state in that subject. This way, you can be sure you know exactly what to write in exams to score full marks.

We help our students to dramatically improve their marks through a two-tier system of teaching.

In our in-centre, interactive small group classes, we’ll familiarise you with the key theory, focusing on building a deep conceptual understanding from first principles, rather than through memorisation. A Talent 100 Mentor (teacher or tutor) explains the theory, working through typical HSC questions, before allowing you to reinforce what you learnt with further questions.

In an interactive and personalised tutorial, a Talent 100 Mentor will provide directed and individual feedback to you (and up to three other students) if you require help with your school or Talent 100 work.

Overall, our teaching system combines the best of a competitive class environment with the personal attention and care of having a private tutor.
