The testing officers don't know jack, true story. They are not trained driving instructors, they are not trained in driver instruction period. How I know this... if you take the test more than once (like myself and a few others cuz of some woman failing for very random things like not...

Ok here is what I was told last year cuz I came top of English: Adv and Legal Studies at my school. From Head of English to both English advanced classes: "If she (me) gets lower than anyone here in the HSC, your marks will be moderated accordingly to hers." Talk about pressure... anyways, i...

Hardly anyone speaks about their UAI... mainly cuz most of those in your course are likely to have: 1) spoke about it ad nauseum when they got it. 2) are mature age students 3) got in through TAFE (depending on course) 4) are on their second bachelor degree 5) have swapped from another course...

They shouldn't be doing it and if you have a complaint, speak to your year advisor. If it isnt resolved there, speak to the deputy principals and then the principal himself. If it still isn't resolved, speak to someone at the department of education - or get your parents to call on your behalf...

Its not that you miss out. People can get into uni even if they dont get the required UAI. There are many ways: 1) do a TAFE course that counts towards the degree you want to do. Once you have finished the course, apply to go to uni with that. Plus it gives you credit towards the degree if...

How was everyone's first week at UC? For me it was interesting, I'm doing B.Ed and the lectures were very fun and easy to listen to. I can't wait for my prac weeks =) I'm quite excited to be doing my course (but ask me again in a month and I might tell you otherwise...) The commute from...

Just get your assignments in on time... I just can't believe the two regular offenders of this rule in my Ancient History class last year. They both tried sucking up to the teacher and handed it in two months late. Yes, cuz they handed it in, they didn't get a non-attempt for it but they just...

Target Fitting Rooms/Registers/Door: 1) Don't complain to me that the person at lay-by was slow getting out your hold item... do you know how hard it is to find something in there? 1)a) Don't turn around and complain that if that was you at your job that you'd be fired for that kind...

Yeah cuz our school was getting all thing about following department policy. In year 11 we just got told to watch Apocolypse Now at home for our unit on Heart of Darkness.

My year had that problem... the Department had only just began enforcing it, so the Society and Culture class were able to watch Shawshank Redemption. When I was in year 8 we watched the whole of Braveheart for history, but when it came to watching Luhrman's version of Romeo and Juliet in year...

I know at University of Canberra that laptops may be used in lectures etc, but there are only specific spots in the campus that you can access the WIFI network. I think that there is just "common courtesy" guidlines: that you get to lectures and set up before it starts, you're not listening to...

Welcome to Canberra guys. I wish I could live on Res, but I'm a "local". Have fun with your degrees!

The government should do what they did to Motorcyclists. That is to introduce compulsary Advanced Driver Courses as a requirement to get to the next licence stage, and for schools to start driver education earlier (I know that ACT and Tasmania has pre-driver courses in their schools, but it is...

I used kilometricos all thru year 11 and 12 and even for my HSC exams and they never failed me... only occasionally when finishing a sentence, it left a small glob of ink that slightly smudged. But otherwise, they last for ages! The red ones are bad for smudges, black isn't so bad (I used...

Jeeze, this hasn't been updated in a while! Is anyone else here (starting in 07 or otherwise) doing B.Ed Early Childhood 0-8yrs with CIT? I'm beginning to feel quite lonely :uhoh: Other than that, I can't wait to start! 1 month to go
