    Crime Fiction Exam Story

    English Extension 1 is the only subject where it pays to be unoriginal and cliched. They call it conforming to the conventions of the genre.

    journal love

    they send them back to your school next year, i think. They did for last year anyway. Presumably, your school would contact you and say, "hey we've got your journals and MJs here, if you want them come and get them, or else we're gonna burn em'"

    Warning to year 11s

    SDD is a lot harder to BS in IPT, because the BS in IPT is a lot more generalised. Sure, the questions in SDD are specific...but perhaps a bit too specific for the marks they allocate? It's all part of the New HSC conspiracy, they're trying to make a course that's practical, hence all the...

    hey this guy obviously has great respect for his ipt/maths teacher, just look at all those capital letters and exclamation marks...and we should all look on in awe as respect for an IPT teacher is something very rare considering IPt teachers are usually ful lof crap.

    Ext 2

    What is a novella anyway? A mini novel? I didn't ever recall seeing the word "novella" in the English Extension 2 Syllabus or that sheet which says all the text types and requirements we could write in. Not that it matters anyway. With short stories, i think to gain really good marks...

    ??Research??

    Considering that unless you were planning to write a very contriversial piece of work, they won't even read your journal. They just have your journal sitting in front of them, but they're not allowed to read it unless two markers give the work very different marks. Therefore, it seems...

    sdd scaling

    I think generally people who do SDD are pretty smart. I mean half the people in my class are the 4 unit maths, chess club, computer programming competition kinda people. I swear there's a bunch of guys in my class who completly fit the geek stereotype you see on television, the whole nerd laugh...

    weird...

    There's a glossary at the back of the syllabus although it says that "these terms are provided to assist teachers to interpret the syllabus but are in no way intended for examination purposes" It defines encapsulation as "the isolation of an object from its environment, so that changes to...

    What do you think your raw marks will be?

    what's the difference between raw and aligned marks? I remember distinctly someone from the board of studies coming to our school (several times) going on about how "the board of studies doesn't scale" and that it's UAC that scales.

    MC - Question 14

    According to the Heinemann book, "the keyword ORDER BY sorts on a field in ascending (ASC) or descending (DEXC) order. Ascending order is the default and can be ommitted" :) IPT isn't based on reality, it's based on what it says in the text book.

    MC - Question 14

    by default, when no ORDER BY is stated, the DMBS or whatever does it will order the thing ASC. Technically, a complete SQL statement will have the ORDER BY bti whether it needs to be sorted ASC or DSC, but it will still work without the order by, The only time ORDER BY is required is when you...
