Well, we had only 10 periods which was enough to only fit in 3U. Good marks for your trial. The only thing I'm scared of repeating is that there are 3 guys that always get 97+. Haha, I have to make sure I don't act lazy just because I've done the course. Btw, do you go to Kings?
No man bad marks for my trial. I wanted 100 haha. I forgot tiny little things dammit. Ages ago in this thread there was talk about consistency, I need to fix that. I never have problems in maths tests, I always THINK i have 100, but I never do, always a few little stupid mistakes. How do you cure that...?

O no I don't go to Kings. I will go to Hurlstone next year. Now im faaaar away from Sydney haha. Why do you say Kings? You could have asked if im from Baulko xD

It's great my maths teachers actually decided to fix the acceleration thing, I would be stuffed for next year if they didn't lol. At HAHS I wonder if there's many good mathematicians... Slyhunter! Aside from Giles, are there any competitors in yr 10 currently? I know giles is in yr 12 just saying about year 10, any good maths guys...? What about chem and english and physics?

That's exactly what I was saying. In particular, if you want to get a state rank, it's important to be consistent. Saying that was deemed offensive to some, so please, lol, i don't wanna see you get banned or anything. We should talk in conversation thing instead - more convenient.

As to being more consistent. Well, there's a reason why these guys sometimes get 99, when their capabilities are like state rank standard. Finish the test quickly and check back. And don't look at your working. Actually DO it again and THEN check your work. And of course, revision dammit. I mean, 3U is just 2 hours, -> aim to finish within 1.5 hours. You can easily do an exam a day, esp. since you're accelerating. Don't wanna give you too many tips lol, I still need to beat you.

I know a guy from Kings in year 10 accelerating too.

LOL yes of course, don't give away your secrets to the competition haha.Es okay, I will fix it up myself I hope. It's just with the tests, I finish pretty quick and then when Im checking through, I can almost swear I have 100 percent, but my brain is like oblivious sometimes to the little mistakes. I am so sure it's right, and am oblivious to the error, then the teacher is like "96" or "98" but hardly ever the all powerful 1-0-0 lol.


And the thing in bold, sorry I dont get it, what do you mean "Say it was offensive to some"? as in report it...? It doesn't seem to make sense for me or is that just me...?

Don't know lol. All I know is agree to what anyone else says or they'll try to ban you.
I have the same issue with mistakes. And it's always like forgetting to simplify or adding a sign or misreading the question or something like that. Can't reply much anymore, gotta finish my chem notes :)

well there's a school in my city that does ext 1 and 2 in yr 11. I thought it was standard protocol for accelerants to do ext 1 in yr 10 preliminary then ext 1 and 2 HSC in yr 11, seeing as though ext 2 is a 1 year course just for year 12 anyway.
I went pretty well in my test, 96.
Looks at sig.... goes to a rural school.

Where are you getting this idea from?
Don't know, don't care. I'd rather not make the topic at hand go off at tangents. And I really don't care that you lowered my reputation, I'm not sure whether you expected me to have a cry about it. Feel free to continue though.

@hayabusaboston: Good to see you updated you HSC goals :) I hope you try and fulfil them and not put it there for eye candy.

I swear I've seen you make several posts and comments whinging about how you're not allowed to disagree with people or demotivate them, surely something gave you that idea.

Ok, you can ponder the idea yourself if you're that interested. Print out the thread and analyse it for all I care. Not sure why you're so eager to persist something off-topic. You can always pm or something instead of bumping the topic.

You are cool sanical, but I do find that slightly offensive, suggesting I would put up a sig like that as eye candy. If I say I will do something, then I'm going to do it bro, and I'm going to do it as perfectly as I can too ;) I follow Ruse's motto, gesta non verba.

Haha, that's good then. Why haven't you tried and moved to a higher rank school? It'd be much easier to get higher marks.

Mate, seriously, I was just curious - and trying to subtly make a point that you won't get banned for disagreeing with people. Stop overreacting to everything.

Doubt anyone cares if you go off topic.

I am moving to a higher ranked school, Hurlstone. My family doesn't want to move to sydney so the highest ranked school which was accessible to me had to be boarding, and Hurlstone wad the only one in the state so yea. If I lived in Sydney then id have been in ruse since yr 7 haha. And I would be like one of only 10 white people lol. Ruse is 99 percent foreigners, 1 percent white.

Why don't you figure out all your questions by yourself instead of having me spoon-feed you. How many questions with equally apparent answers are you going to ask? I now see the correlation between your thinking capacity and your username.

@hayabusaboston: lol, I travel 1 hour 40 minutes to get to my school.
