    Attacking exams when you've run out of time?

    Agree with all of the above - two strategies 1. Find easy marks by scribbling down 2-3 marks worth of an answer down 2. For longer questions with lots of marks up for grabs, just dot point that shit. Every teacher I had told me to do this if I was running out of time on the last question.

    is society and culture and legal studies any good???!!

    S&C is sooo easy in terms of content & study (honestly I would compare it to CAFS it was that easy), so your main thing to consider is the PIP. Do you know what you'd like to research? If no, I'd start thinking about that now, although I'm sure your teacher will dedicate some class time to that...

    Handwriting help to write neater AND faster

    In search for a distinctively visual text for my standard english essay

    The only thing that comes to mind is Shaun Tan books, maybe have a look in your local library? He utilises visual motif and colour a lot to illustrate the emotional relevance of the book's message slash the value it is promoting.

    Which A-League team do you support?

    Yep, although if any of MV had to score it I'm glad it was him so that he could redeem himself. Highlight of my night was singing his old chant when he played for SFC.

    Suggestions for Historical Investigation Project

    My top 3 options were The Great Depression, The Bubonic Plague, and the history of anti-Semitism. I basically looked at my syllabus and was like if I could pick my own modules, what would I want to learn about?

    Am I too old for uni?

    Every class I've ever done has multiple people in their late 20s, plus there's always a few in their 30s-50s. My uni clique is me, one other early 20s, and two people in their 30s.
