I assume you'll be attending UNSW now? =)
Yeah I sorta have to otherwise it would be even worse if I stole the points/cash and didn't take it haha- I was planning on UNSW anyway though so it works out nicely

Fuark- good luck though. Do they look at your ATAR at all or is it all Uni/UMAT/interview?

Thanks, it's no easy feat but hopefully things look better next year.

Nope, ATAR is disregarded for MedSci at UNSW not sure about USYD

I have the full Modern syllabus typed out for WWI, Russia, Trotsky, Indochina. I also have Ancient typed with Pompeii, Sparta, Alexander the Great, and 4th Cen. Greece. Anybody want to do a trade for Al Ghazali/Lib Theology/Enviro Ethics (SOR1) notes or even Crime Fiction notes (EXT ENG1)?

congratulations! (again :))

Does that mean that you can accept the Scientia at the same time? ;) ;)
Yeah I can accept both at the same time I think- imagine that- $14,000 in the first year haha.

Though you know, just casually get .9, no worries- probs won't happen.

I'll do my best though (will shout BOS lunch if I do- even Spiral)

Edit: Changed first line because it read like I could get both scholarships, not accept them both lol

I seriously think all of the regulars should be shouting you lunch if this happens - no pressure. :)

Haha we'll see. Anyways, no point worrying about it now. I promise to go hard and if it ends up happening, then it happens :)

Had first Ext 2 Lesson today lol, just introduction to Complex numbers and their basic operators (addition, subtraction etc). Hopefully it will get better though, looking forward to the rest of the course.

Also my teacher told me not to read ahead or learn ahead, saying that its very important that especially for 4U to learn in the class in order to get the right idea rather than by self-learning. What should I do? (I will be reading ahead during summer)

Disagree, reading ahead is fine as long as you understand the previous content learnt.

Read ahead definitely imo. Not sure about your school but ours is too slow for 4U. Give it a try and if you can understand it by yourself, I'd recommend it because it gives you more time to practice
