How the boards work, and the four rules
Discussion threads are about the subject itself: why the marking guide wanted that phrase, how an area of study fits together, what the examiner report was actually complaining about. Replies are threaded, so a question asked in March is still readable in October. Resource swaps are listings where you say what you are offering and what you want in return. Files can be attached and stay private: only a logged-in student can open one, through a short-lived link.
- Your own work only. Post notes, summaries, flashcards and worked solutions you wrote yourself. Trading is an exchange between students who both did the work.
- No exam or assessment answers. Nothing from a SAC, an assignment, an internal assessment or an exam you are still sitting. That is academic misconduct and it gets removed on sight.
- No copyrighted textbook material. No scanned chapters, publisher workbooks or solutions manuals. Explain the idea in your own words instead.
- Be decent. Answer the question that was asked, disagree with the argument rather than the person, and leave the ATAR one-upmanship elsewhere. Anything abusive or spammy can be reported from the post itself.
Reading is open to everyone. Posting, replying and downloading a traded file need a free ATARMAxxing account, which is also what makes moderation and the daily posting limits possible.
Looking for the study material itself?
The boards are students talking to students. The practice exams, notes, questions and flashcards live on the subject hubs, with every official past paper indexed by topic.
