    Crazy biology teacher: Should I drop? HELP!!?

    This is about the best encouragement I've ever had ^_^ Do you also have advice on how to get the best marks when you don't know what she's marking you on? If that makes any sense? Generally before an assessment task I would ask what sort of task it is and prepare like wise, but now she doesn't...

    Crazy biology teacher: Should I drop? HELP!!?

    I stopped trusting my judgement even since I made so many mistakes :P Which is why I get other people's judgement and judge from there instead.

    Crazy biology teacher: Should I drop? HELP!!?

    I want to do Pharmacy or something science related, but it doesn't matter because Biology is apparently easy to do a bridging course for...

    Crazy biology teacher: Should I drop? HELP!!?

    <---- Is slightly shocked. You're the first to tell me to drop xD but yea I used to like Biology a lot more. I was even coming first at the start of Prelim, until I started to know her more and more. We kinda clashed personalities because I don't put up with her crap and my rank just kept...

    Crazy biology teacher: Should I drop? HELP!!?

    Trials aren't till another year. We have assessment task coming up and she's proving very uncooperative with my questions. All I have now is to ask BOS people and hope and pray >_< I plan to take advantage of 3/4 of the summer break, where I would definitely start from scratch since learnt...

    Crazy biology teacher: Should I drop? HELP!!?

    The problem with self teach is I have nothing to verify myself with. I keep thinking I might teach myself the wrong thing :/ I tried going to other teachers in the science department but then she caught me and went bonkers telling me I shouldn't be asking other teachers when SHE's my "real"...

    Could you not debate that it's open to interpretation and hence can have many meanings anyway? Since you could only fit so much in the time given you would only be able to discuss so many points. Would you not want to discuss points in detail as opposed to many points in general? Also about how...

    Crazy biology teacher: Should I drop? HELP!!?

    Yes Spiral she was a replacement of a previous terrific teacher who went into retirement. So basically you're all saying that I shouldn't drop? Oh btw no one really answered my question about scaling and stuff. Would I need to do really well in IT to get a band 6? For some reason I don't...

    Analysing a movie (HELP)

    A nice way to tabulate would be: Belonging concept | Technique | Example/scene | Effect/explain

    Crazy biology teacher: Should I drop? HELP!!?

    For the first time in 5 years there's only 1 biology class -_- She was actually offered to split the class in two but no she wanted ALL the SENIOR classes coz she's so important and everything >_< It's my last year at the school I don't want to put up with her crap or trouble with my Principal...

    Analysing a movie (HELP)

    Movie techniques generally mean the shots angle, costume, setting, dialogue, facial expressions, lighting etc... it is not based on quotes alone.

    Crazy biology teacher: Should I drop? HELP!!?

    Wow you sure have it easy at your school then. When I even hinted at dropping at Bio earlier on I had the whole freakin science department on me lecturing about why I shouldn't drop -_- But no, it would never drop simply because I don't like her. But it's to the extent that it's affecting my...

    Right... *pokes above question* Why is Leunig crap?

    Crazy biology teacher: Should I drop? HELP!!?

    As the title suggests I'm thinking of dropping Biology because I obviously hate my biology teacher, and a few other reasons. Here are the reasons why: - Favoritism She plays 'favorites' over students who performs better well to the extent that I can't take. Not only academically but...

    Ok.. first stupid question. What does RT stand for? Just because something's easy to analyse doesn't mean it's shit -_- and what is wrong with Leunig cartoons anyway? Are related texts really that important or major part? I really don't want to stuff my brain with more crap than necessary...

    Information Techonology was a joke...

    I just meant it's easier for technical people, if that makes any sense. I think OHS is common sense so hopefully there will be more of that during my HSC xD You missed a question: "Were there questions from past papers?"

    All the comments are different -_- I think she wanted us to have a more variety of related texts to choose from so that it would suit the question better or something. My prescribed text (I think that's what you call it) for belonging poems from Emily Dickinson. I already have a related text...
