    In need of advice: Primary Education vs. Early Childhood Education

    Not a problem! I’m very glad to help. Just so you know, I have a Bachelors of Architecture from UTS, and I’m currently doing a Masters in Teaching (Birth-12) at UWS - it’s a 2.5 year course. This degree means that I will be a 4 year trained Primary teacher and an Early Childhood Teacher. I...

    What is the best Uni for teaching?

    If you want to teach religious Catholic education then go to a Catholic university, as they are the only ones that offer those subjects.

    Study Timetable

    It might not help, you know. Not everyone can study that way. Personally I find them useless for me, because every night I'm in a different mood and feel like doing different things. Then again, I do barely 1 hour tops every night. So far my marks have been pretty good - average/above...

    Any specific goals in regards to HSC?

    My aims in this order: 1. Get into Architecture at UNSW (only 90!) 2. Get a UAI I'm not too embarrased about 3. Don't drag down the grade's average (around 95-96) 4. Beat my relatives!! (97- perfect 100) I think my first aim is achievable. Maybe. Yay.

    massive forearm cramps from writing too much?

    Sticky tape a battery to the end of your pen, and take off the battery for exams. It strengthens the muscles in your hand and arm so you can write for longer without cramping. I've found it hasn't really helped me write faster though, that requires practice.

    Time Management: Study Vs Homework

    Homework is important for subjects such as Maths and English!!! For subjects such as Legal Studies that is all memorising stuff and not much else, don't bother with homework. Who really wants to do sheets full of comprehension questions, that aren't organised by syllabus dot points? NO ONE...

    How much do you like your subjects?

    English Adv - 8 (interesting, educational content) General Maths - 5 (it's... maths. Blergh.) IPT - 2 Legal Studies - 3 Business Studies - 3 I HATE MY SUBJECTS!!!! If I could go back in time I would change them ALL, except maths and English, except I would to Ext 1.

    How well did u go for your second HSC assessments?

    I'm not too happy. I didn't put nearly enough preparation in. For Legal Studies I thought I'd learnt enough content for my extended responses but ran out of things to talk about after a while. I underestimated how much I could write!

    encore 2008

    Oh, meee! This is so random, it's like 2 hours after the actual concert. I was looking for a list of the performers but couldn't find one online, far out! Did anyone get the booklet? Would someone be able to put up a list of their names, and possibly their schools? That would be very...

    Almost my entire grade is going from St. George Girls. It should be fun, I'm looking forward to it. Quite a few people really don't want to go though.

    B Architecture...confused

    I'm hoping to do Architecture too, except I'm doing General Maths, no physics and Social Science subjects. I've been told by Architecture students that the maths is pretty basic and only goes up to about a Year 10 standard.
