I was trying to write a response to some writing questions and come across this sentence. Je ne le tolererai pas. (I will not tolerate it.) I never really completely understood the positioning of 'le', so I was wondering if anyone could explain that to me, and perhaps give me more...

Hi, I want to get into Bachelor of Arts (Languages) at University of Sydney but last year's cut-off was 97.40UAI and I don't think I can get in. So if I did Bachelor of International Studies, or Bachelor of Arts, would it be possible to transfer to BA (Languages) after first year...

In the source analysis questions, can we add in quotes from our own knowledge? :) Just wanted to clarify. Thanks.

Thankyou lourai*87, frenchie and Kazuya! I'm writing those phrases down. :D My intention was personal letter, but if you know any phrases for professional situations (like applying for a job), please let me know. :) Thankyou guys!!

Bonjour a tous! I was wondering if anyone knew sophisticated ways of opening and closing a letter. I've been using, par exemple, "Chere Maman, Comment vas-tu?" and it's so bland. :S And any phrases that I can shove in my writing that would sound good? :P Thanks in advance. :)

Oh okay, 20%.. je suppose que c'est pas mal.

I thought I did okay, but I've been thinking about and I'm so mad at myself!! I made a couple of mistakes, like, I started talking about the differences between France and Australia and I said 'je ne porte pas l'uniforme', when I should have said 'les etudiants ne portent pas l'uniforme en...

My french teacher said they can't ask you about terrorism?

Je vais aller "James Cook" en Kogarah pour l'examen orale a demain. I want to drive, but does anyone know if I can park inside the school? Je suis tres nerveuse maintenant! I hope that the examiner asks me easy questions, mais je peux souhaiter seulement.

Oh, that seems simple! It was in Q2 of 1997 HSC Extension 1 paper, and I was kicking myself because I couldn't do it. So, the same would apply to cos, yeah? Thankyou! :D

My french class right now are practicing 'curly' questions that they might ask you in exams, which I am terrified of! I don't want to sit there and stare at the examiner in stunned silence. :S Did you get asked any questions that put you off, Chepas?

Q: A particleis moving in SHM. Its displacement x at time t is give by x = 3sin(2t + 5) Find maximum acceleration of the particle. Thanks in advance.

Most of my assessments marks are in the high 70s, but I go to a top 20 selective school. Have I blown my chance of 95 UAI? :( Or what marks should I be aiming for in the HSC to try and get 95?

I'm a bit confused with determining where the root lies (hope that makes sense). Say for example, Show that x^3 + x^2 + x + 8 = 0 has a root between x = 1 and x = 2 and use the bisection method twice to determine the root. Skipping the showing a root exists bit... x = 1 and x = 2 xm...

Oh, thanks FinalFantasy! :)

Solve: 1) 2tan2x -1 = 0, 0 < x < 360 (degrees) I got x = 13'17' and 103'17', but there are 4 answers (13'17', 103'17', 193'17', 283'17') . Can anyone explain why? And also, why don't you double the quadrant ( 0 < 2x < 720)? 2) 2tanx + 3 = 0 Similar the q1, I only got two of the...

How to study for Modern History? I've been writing notes (dot points) for my half yearlies, but I get bored easily. I probably won't even remember half the stuff in my notes. :S Does anyone know an effective and interesting way to study modern history? :confused:

No, I really am interested in those courses. It doesn't hurt to set a goal, but if all else fails, I am planning to do International Studies at UNSW.

It depends on what UAI I get. If I'm lucky (or work extremely, extremely hard :( ), my first preference would be Combined Law with International Studies at UNSW (99.15), then Arts (Media and Communications) at USYD (98.00), then Arts (Languages) at USYD (97.25).

I wouldn't say all asian parents, probably most asian parents, certainly my parents. I have asian parents and anything less than 95 UAI would be disappointing for them. :eek:
