Ooooh, get well soon! And good to hear that you've made a good start to Year 12. It's the start of a big journey, but I know you'll do well!
caramel's year 12 journal
I got my first bio sac back and I got a 35/40, and the cohort average is around 70%, so I'm pretty happy about that. On my way to kick Bio's butt! I do wish I didn't lose that one mark, though.

Oooh, well done! Take note of the things you got wrong, or weren't sure of, and be sure to revise them for the exam. There's a long way to go, but you seem to have made a good start
possible_to_return_passport Hii that's an awesome first SAC score! Congrats
Also I remember u mentioning that u do Art CP as well, so I was just wondering what ur class is up to. My class is towards the end of AOS 1. We're working on our final artworks in preparation for our critiques next week, starting on Wednesday. So I've got quite a bit to do but I really like Art at least so hopefully I get it done.
Wishing u luck for ur next SACs!! A 35/40 in bio is such a great score! If it helps for ur next AOS I can try and find my 3&4 bio resources from last year, as it was my higher study subject, and I can try upload them to ATARNotes if u like
frog_of_spades Thank you
We’re all at different stages right now because two new students in my class have picked it up without 1/2. Some haven’t even finished brainstorming, but one of my classmates already finished their outcome 1 final. I’m currently finished with my trials, just need to take two more photos or so, then scan & print out. Our critique is on the first week back from school.
possible_to_return_passport ur welcome!

18/03/25 Quick summary of what happened these past few weeks
- Watched Sunset Boulevard with the entire cohort
- Crafting Texts SAC + 400-word commentary (I wrote like 1000 words in 50 minutes)
- Chemistry SAC (Lots of calibration factor questions)
- Currently starting the scientific poster (Unit 3, AOS 3) for Chemistry
- Finished all content for cell. respiration/photosynthesis. The SAC is based on three experiments completed in class. We have a data sheet provided when the SAC comes, and we're supposed to be able to write an experimental aim, hypothesis, conclusion, comment on errors, limitations, and uncertainty
- Tonight, my chem tutor finished explaining all content for electrolysis and I have lots of questions to do
- Edited
The biggest stuff-up I did on the prev. bio sac was not understanding that the experiment that the Bio teachers put in was an anabolic reaction, not a catabolic reaction, but I recall only losing one mark on the 'draw the diagram' question. Also, not being able to comment on uncertainty (a two-marker I left blank)
Uncertainty should mean that there is a gap in the knowledge is a lack of the exact knowledge of the value of a measured quantity. So, something that is quantitative should have little uncertainty.
possible_to_return_passport That's fair enough, my class was sort of in the same situation.
What did you do for your trials?
For mediums I trialled copics + other alcohol-based markers, etching and printmaking, coloured pencils, and digital art. And then I also did a collage trial for the text I might include in the final, as well as mini trials on composition, space, mood, and Figurative art and Expressionism. Honestly this was all like soo much work and now with adding my progress photos and annotations for my final I've almost finished my whole visual diary, and term 1 isn't even over
We've just started our critiques last class, so we need everything done for that I'm just adding the final touchs to my final artwork for this outcome bc my critique is next class. Plus we need our visual diary/folios up to date and a ppt to present!
I think we're starting the next outcome right after critiques are done, so everything is very busy in my art class rn tbh
