My parents are fantastic - they've always told me to follow my dreams and do whatever I want. They've never put pressure on me to get certain marks - my mum said that if I was happy, she would be happy. Sure enough, I'm coming first in two subjects and ranked top 10% for everything else in a...

Harlequin, I find it interesting you classify yourself as Christian.. 1) Christian's are supposed to "love their neighbours" 2) Christian's are not supposed to judge others 3) Christian's are not supposed to envy others I think your original post shows you in defiance of all three things.

I have only one assessment after the trial - an English one on Frontline "Telling the Truth", thank god.

I have two.. Ancient History and English Extension in the first week of next term. And my History Extension project due next week.

I do at least five hours of exercise a week - you'll go crazy, burn all your notes, and drop out of year 12 if you don't have some kind of outlet.

^Technically if you were in a good school and were averaging 70% on some really hard tests but were ranked first... and then you kicked ass in the HSC because it was a lot easier than what you were doing at school, your marks really don't count - you'll get allocated the appropriate HSC mark...

Your rankings matter, not your marks..

I thought Gittins was good, the last two were crapolla.. just recited stuff out of the textbook. I got so bored and fidgety in the last lecture - I started falling asleep and had to resort to drawing pictures on my lecture paper to wake myself up. Did anyone get freaked out by the first guy...

actually there was a 'crowding in' question in one of the HSC exams... the general gist is that there is an investment increase.

Haha.. I keep having a recurring dream that I wake up at 10am and my exam started at 9...

I liked my report: Ancient History: Rank 6/39 History Ext: Rank 5/35 English: Rank 12/140 Eng Ext: Rank 19/69 Economics: Rank 1/58 Business Studies: Rank 1/39

My friends and I are.. can't wait :D

a) You'll get a good Moderated Assessment mark, but your HSC mark will be shit bringing your average down b) You'll get a bad ranking and get allocated a mark that won't be good (if you're ranked last, you'll get the lowest mark received in the HSC exam by any student from your school) but...

Apparently your SC is an 'indication' of how you'll perform in the HSC. But I mean, that's total BS. I didn't try at all in year ten (still got band 5/6s) but I wasn't ranked like in the top ten or anything - this year I'm working hard and kicking serious ass.

A girl at our school did Pathways last year and the year before... she got 99.95 So I think you'll be right!

Mine are August 1-12. I started revising in week1-4 of this term, but have had to stop as I have assessments over the next four weeks that I need to concentrate on. As soon as they're over (weds week nine) its back onto intense study for trials!

I get back on the 17th from my schoolies cruise just in time to get my UAI so im happy about that :) I won't have the dreaded night-in-between-receiving-exam-marks-and-UAI.

I don't think that's legal... it presents a conflict of interest. If she's marking your work in an assessment, she can't be objective.

I do 3 unit English, 3 unit history (Ancient + hist ext) and business studies and they're not death- they rock! I've read some posts about people who say History Ext takes a lot of work but it doesn't really - dedicate one-two hours on a Saturday morning to your project and you'll get it done in...

If you're after inflation reasons you would look at cost-push inflation - largely union activity in pushing up wages in expectancy of inflation (which will just lead to a wage and inflation spiral) If you're after unemployment reasons you could look at there being less skilled workers in the...
