    Awkward "Friendship" or "Love" Situation

    Sometimes the way I see it, best friend is better than boyfriend. Just give her space, if she's happy with this new guy, and you really care about her, then you would want the best for her. I'd just stick by her side and be supportive about it. That's the way I'd run.

    Elite students exploit bonus points...

    If someone has a hug problem with it, like they actually can't hold a pen right even with the squidgey grips, I think it's fair enough, but I think they should be assessed on other issues, such as whether it's just that or some huger issue, because it's like ADHD in a way. Not meaning to offend...

    School Certificate Help.

    I thought it was getting taken out for Yr 10 2009? Or am I deluded? Probably the latter... I just sat the School Cert and it was pretty much memorising things. As ConquerDiscover said, it's pretty much textbook and past papers that teach you everything you need to know. Computer skills...

    I suffer from chronic depression and anxiety but I didn't apply for anything for my school certificate and have been offered Special Provisions more than once by different parties.

    HSC Subjects for University Course

    THat is actually a pretty good idea, georgefren. I guess, if you do well at something, then you'll do well at it, then you'll be at the top, so if you're at the top, you'll get a good mark. I guess the only subject I've chosen outside of my interests in Chemistry and MAthematics, however...

    HSC Subjects for University Course

    Thanks for that! However, looking at my marks from the passing years, I am quite the bit better at any other subject than I am at Chemistry. I don't qite understand this whole scaling thing, because there is a rumour that if you do Latin and get 60% in it, you'll still do well due to scaling as...

    HSC Subjects for University Course

    Hey, thanks all for your replies! RogueAcademic - I have got interests concerning the sciences subjects, but I honestly don't think I am forged for a career in the sciences. After Law as a preference, I have interests economics and political science or international law and relations...

    HSC Subjects for University Course

    Hey, thanks a load for that! So, you're saying that to do Law, I don't actually have to have any other subjects as a prereq, other than English, to benefit my chances? Taking a gaze, I'd then assume Modern History would be useful as in time past, there are debateable trials and cases in...

    HSC Subjects for University Course

    I know that with a lot of Uni courses, there are prereqs for them. I'm aiming to get into Arts/Law, with the Arts in Classical languages. I've chosen my subjects for Year 11 already, but I'm not sure what I want to keep, because I have 14 units and I want to drop at least 1 subject. I've chosen...
