Hey Thanks :D I'd rather the UNSW one, mainly because of all the college stuff and the whole reputation, and the money And well I've got a week to tweak my teleporting implement -_- Actually no, I rang UTS up and the person on the phone said don't worry about it, just turn up as soon as you...

Yeah. I got both interviews 1.15 UNSW briefing day finish. 1.15 UTS commence I know they look for smart people but teleporting has thus far been in fiction only :cool:

lol uniform? Our teachers goes: We don't care about you guys not wearing uniform. We'll give you all those reminders that we're supposed to, but we are never gonna chase you up The daily walk from school is the one thing I won't miss :)

I'd like to know, too

Yeah... that's the thing I'm pretty sure he was ranked pretty bad in a few so in other words he underperformed during the year, therefore there will be people who got bad marks, and this means he would've gotten pretty terrible moderated assessment marks

march to the school and slap some sense into the person who gave you this rank. Seriously

Hmm One thing: If you have somewhat terribly internal ranks, and blitz the HSC, how do you end up with a good mark/rank? I know someone who got 94.5 UAI and he had terrible internal ranking

lol yeah, SDD in real life pretty much gets you fired On the other hand, the major project is interesting, and despite what the people said above, you need a fair level of understanding of coding - i.e. logical thinking and writing/following instructions line by line (yeah that's what coding...

lol same except instead I would've dropped Physics for Bio Then again Physics isn't gonna count for me :)

lol that bit (dfds and other diagrams) is the same as the software design syllabus... Someone writing the SDD syllabus NEEDS to know a bit of software next time round

Trust me, you do. there are always 2 pseudocode questions in the paper which are often worth quite a bit (10 marks or more), and even more in the trial papers (Independent/CSSA). This year's coding was extremely easy, but the ones before wasn't so easy, and who knows what's gonna happen in 2...

you have to be good at English to do software. You need to be able to explain all those logical thoughts you have into words in an exam, plus you need to be good at coding. Take a look at the past papers and see. But I found it good fun and you can definitely drop it at the end of year 11...

okay you CANNOT place hex into a bit :rolleyes: Remember: the option talks about hardware - and we all know binary is stored in flip flops, which makes up "memory" Therefore a BIT is either 1 or 0, not ASCII characters, nor digits. That's why the data type "Int" is 16 bits and can only...

lol only 2/8 people in my class actually tries in software The rest just either don't turn up or cant be bothered. Mind you, we're the only two looking at going to uni based on our uai (as opposed to early entry)

*phew* at least i'm not alone :D

I just put it into 4 memory locations, i.e. 2E, 2F, 30, 31

:eek: what were they?

BIT/Inf was my first - and yeah i got it :)

when are the interviews notified? I thought it was today?

Nope, I found it rather easy... And I live in regional NSW too... hmm... *Prays to .. someone.. that I didn't majorly f**k it up* Then again, i got a lot of the questions out... so.. i dunno, but it didn't feel that hard
