    Maths in IT

    Well this is quite assuring, I always assumed that IT was a very maths extensive subject requiring up to 3u and 4u knowledge of maths. Also, I plan on studying at Macquarie so from what you guys have said I'm guessing I wont need greater knowledge other than 2u, which I plan on studying during...

So I was wondering If anyone has insight to the type of maths that is involved and If I would be able to...

    Regarding Illness/Misadventure.

    Thanks for the reply guys, have inspired me to sit the exam. Unfortunate turn of events but as you said not much I can do other than try my best. I'm feeling a tad better but still skeptical about if i'd be able to sit the entire 3 hours, so how would I go about notifying the supervisors? If I...

    Regarding Illness/Misadventure.

    I've been sick for the last two days with a heavy fever, cold & flu symptoms etc. and I have my legal exam today at 1:50. Could anyone recommend the best course of action? I have not much of a understanding of the system. It's not that much of a serious illness but I have been bed-ridden unable...

    Official: 2012 Modern History HSC Exam predictions thread

    Thanks ! I thought as much because I struggled to find much content on the Great Depression. And as for the Indochina question, if they ask about social,political, economic, military developments it would be best to structure as you said since they would most probably be looking for a contrast...

    Official: 2012 Modern History HSC Exam predictions thread

    I only managed to find one brief essay, it sort of helped though I guess, but still not enough information. With that being said, if they were to ask "Assess the impact of the Great Depression in the collapse of the Wiemar Republic" would it be possible to argue a thesis along the lines of "The...

    As many people have speculated that the Germany question will most probably be on the Great Depression, does anyone have any cites to useful resources on the topic? The Textbook i'm using "Republic to Reich" only has 1 page on the the Great Depression.

    Are quotes necessary?

    My modern teacher had always told us that including historian quotes wasn't quite necessary and it is possible to get full marks without including any quotes. However with the exception of the personality section where quotes were needed due to the lack of supporting evidence in arguments...

    Is there still hope?

    I know there's like 100's of different variables that will affect it, but not even a rough estimate? and I did include my individual rank and school rank?

    Is there still hope?

    Yeah I just figured that out recently ! With that being said, if anyone could estimate the type of raw marks I would need to get an ATAR of 81+ , as well as taking into account my internal rankings It would be greatly appreciated.

    Is there still hope?

    I'm aiming for an ATAR of 81.5 with a minimum of 75. I only just found out how the alignments and scaling work. As I put all my raw marks from trails in the ATAR calculator and got an estimate of <60 :/ . In the HSC i'm pretty sure i bombed out on English, assuming mid~60's as a raw mark, and...
