    Caesar's role and responsibilities in the First Triumvirate?

    A bit late, but for all those that want to see, Caesar also did this to increase his popularity, get a overseas proconsular command rather that the one the senate had for him. In a sense, he wanted to help the people of Rome. Refer to the Conference at Luca, as Caesar brought them back...

    Hi ive got a question about ATAR

    Moreso, your grades don't really matter. They vary from school to school, so say someone at a selective school, may find it difficult to get an A compared to someone at a low ranked school. Your ATAR is a rank and your ranks within a subject determine what ATAR you get. Ranks vary some school to...

    selective schools

    Atmosphere is definitely worth it. You'll think you're doing fantastic at some public schools, by coming first in all your subjects.. but then the change to a selective school.. you need up being in the middle, which really motivates you to reach your potential.

    Is doing three sciences without mathematics unwise?

    A mathematician mind, would usually be better at sciences than one without. Mathematics allows students to further develop their understanding, and this complements their science abilities, where you have to think scientifically ( especially in chem and physics!) Of course, you can always try...

    Are my subjects for yr 11 crap? :(

    No way are your subjects bad. You can get 99.95 ATAR with pretty much any combination of subjects as long as you get good ranks and marks.. scaling doesn't make that much of a difference in the mind either way.

    ATAR estimate..

    low-mid 90s. good chance of getting higher.

    Estimate me, at last I got it in the right place

    You'll get into the 70s somewhere, almost definitely.

    Free English Tutor =)

    I'm just wondering, has anyone said yes yet? Sounds way too good to be true, and i think you should be paid at least something even if you don't want it.

    Are you considered dumb if you get tutoring?

    Yeah, probably why you do Ext 2 Maths. I bet you're another one of those Hurlstone kids who just love Truong.

    ATAR Estimate

    I don't think you should worry about what you get. Don't think it'll be any use to you. 60 ATAR would be about the max, 65 if you really aced the HSC.

    What school to go to for HSC?

    selective school, the environment will really push you.

    Parametrics Q

    Q) P is a variable point on the parabola x^2=-4y . The tangent of P cuts the parabola x^2=4y @ Q and R. Show that 3x^2=4y is the eq of the locus of the midpoint of the chord RQ. P is point (-2p,-p^2) since a=1 dy/dx = dy/dt / dxdt dy/dx = -2p/-2 =p tangent at P y+p^2=p(x+2p) y=px+p^2 cuts...

    Parametrics

    P is a variable point on the parabola x=2t, y=t^2 with focus S and vertex A. Q is the midpoint of SP and R the midpoint of AQ. Find the cartesian equation of the locus of R. Show that the locus is a parabola and find the vertex and focus. Parabola is x^2 = 4y , and then a =1 p(2p,p^2) focus...
