Oh dear!

Re: Historians This turned out to be very useful! Thanks everyone.

Historians I was just wondering what people though about using 'textbook' historians, such as S. Dixon, K. Webb etc... Is it wong to quote these guys in exams or should we just use it as our own knolwedge? I've spoken to many people about this and each seems to have their own opinion, leaving...

Is there any difference in the audio quality from the iPod and iPhone?

I've completed the Ext2 and I'd say that if you really have a passion for poetry then go for it! Though, perhaps get your current work checked over by a professional poet before you decide on medium. That should give you an idea of how you're going. I chose to write two speeches. For our first...

This is my take on history and the history extension course. It may not be what you think but it is completely valid, as the postmodernists believe, lol... It is an easy subject to 'tailor' to you interests. For me, I related historiography to sociology, anthropology and, particularly...

I looked at the undying debate of the bombing of Auschwitz. Basically, the Allies had the chance to bomb the camp, potentially preventing others from being killed there. I came to the conclusion that their decision not to bomb was, in some part, due to the West's ambivalence to the fate of the...

Hmmm... I wish that I'd found this earlier! I'm studying Jesus as well... Yes, it is a bit difficult considering that last year only about 70-80 people attempted it in the state. I managed a 22/25 in the trial for the case study but it shouldn't be too hard to bump that up a couple of marks for...

All is well...

I finished the final draft at 5 in the morning last night (oh the irony) - I feel very glad... The reflective is half finshed and i shall be finishing it togninht. As it's a speech, the recoring will have to come the night before... It's ghastly! So very VERY close though...

I have to get mine in by friday... two days away. AHH!I have created a for and aginst speech re euthanasia. I was up until 5am last 'night' finishing the final draft... Recording the night before... oh, I hate the way that I procrastinate!

Spoke to a friend, she has four: English extension 2, history extension, visual art and textiles... She seems to have coped faitly well.

I do Ext History and Ext2 English - they're both really great courses but you'll have to have good motivation for independent learning. It is most important is that you don't leave the majors to the last minute, which I have. The Ext2 major work is due during my trial week, neek week that is...

I feel for you, 45% is really bad... My English trial is worth 30% - We've had lots of assessments already worth 10% and 15% so hopefully they will make up for my disaster that is to come from the trial next week, sigh... It's worse from English Extension, we've had two assessments already...

Re: BAcc 2008... I'm not going to go for the Co-op at UNSW. I would rather do the BAcc at UTS. Also, the Co-op is slightly harder to get into, UAI wise anyway. So if I get the 95 that I want, I'm definitely into BAcc but not definitely into the Co-op... therefore, no need to apply for Co-op...

Re: BAcc 2008... So... of those who got an offer, who accepted it?

Yes yes... it's quite cool. I have the book by Bill Rancic, lol.

Re: BAcc 2008... I didn't apply for any cadetships but I probably should have. Although now that I have BAcc (with UAI 95) I should be fine. I'm still going to apply to UNSW Co-op though, I think. Can you say yes to BAcc and then take another offer later. If I got both I'd take BAcc, but I like...

Re: BAcc 2008... I sent away my acceptance email yesterday - all confirmed now. I just need the 95 UAI now... Congrats Anita... might see you next year! lol
