Yeah writing out syllabus dotpoint summaries is the way to go. Do a bit each night though. I hardly ever wrote out notes during the year, so i spent two of the 3 weeks of stuvac doing whole syllabus summaries for physics and chem, which was a huge waste.

I don't know anyone else who's fond of them. I think they're useless; if the BOS wants to have challenging questions in their LOTE exams, they should think up another way of doing it. We wanna learn how to interpret/understand the language - why do they test us on how something conveys its...

the listening was ok i guess. Of course they included the obligatory "How does this ad convey its message" which I hate. And the last Q of R+R, how well the author puts his case forward. Dammit English is infecting other subjects!!! How about I don't care how he writes. I spent a little too much...

French is my best subject, and the one I like the most, so I'm not as stressed as I was for other ones (ie. English). I'm finding it hard to 'study' for the writing section. Is anyone writing out practice essays? Cos all i'm doing is reading over reprise and trying to get some of the more...

Not on a regular basis. Usually when it starts getting a bit clunky/laggy. But i never use winxp defrag, I hate that, always gotta use some 3rd party prog.

I thought the exam was more "weird" than difficult. I mean you have questions about Michael Jordan, there was one where you draw the position of two planets after 6 months, spot the mistakes, taking on the persona of Westinghouse... what the hell? There was a lot of having to apply...

mm yeah out of all the things Xayma said, I only wrote about 1 (the generations) and I remember hearing the term 'higgs boson' now that I think about it, but i don't know what it is. That's probably what they're looking for then. I just talked about diff. accelerators then i described the...

what?! is that actually a dotpoint in the syllabus??

i found it stupid because i had no idea what it was asking for, and had no clue as to which topic it was referring to. So I was dumb and wrote some nonsense about time dilation, yeah because all basketball players can jump at relativistic speeds.... boo.... So -4 for that question.

i put momentum and energy and explained a bit on each. Seems weird that you just have to list them? I thought it was alright, yes except for the particle accelerator Q

He was excellent in Cold Mountain, definitely deserving of his Best Actor nom. That movie got a bit neglected in the nomination department...Seabiscuit, up for best picture? What?? He was also good in Road to Perdition, a bit creepy though.

I'll sell/give away my study guides. As for notes and stuff, I won't burn anything, I mean that's a waste. I'll just put all my books away in a dark cupboard somewhere, and one day I might flip through them and reflect on how useless some of the stuff was (ie. English).

i've never had the chance to leave an exam early...not that i would, anyway. But I always take up the whole 2/3 hours. During the chem exam on Friday I got a bit worried because so many people were leaving within the first hour or so. Then I realised that they were just slackers who left...

hehe but i thought nobody went to warez sites anymore Anyway the only sites like that which are reliable are sites for abandonware, rather than warez...

i reckon...say goodbye to all those useless formulas/equations/concepts the only semi-useful knowledge you gain is stuff like finance, maybe projectile motion...probablity...

eh? what's arctan? i got like inverse tan + something for 5(a)ii ... i guess that's wrong then? and i don't think anyone cares about the validity of a question...they just want the marks...

"What can i say...live TV" Love how Law said that at the end. Wonder if he was sarcastically criticising, or trying to defend her? The incident is all over the net and talked about on countless forums...though, maybe it's a bit unfair to focus so much criticism on her. Why not go after all...

well the very first question said put it in scientific notation you might get 1 for writing it correct to 2 sig figs

i think i got n = 29 point something, so i did S29 and S30, and got 48-ish hours and 51-ish hours respectively, so i took it as during the 29th lesson...dunno if that's right though..

oui tu as raison étudier pour les maths, c'est la chose la plus ennuyeuse; on fait les meme choses over and over again. Après avoir fait l'anglais et la chimie je ne suis pas très motivé d'étudier actuellement... j'ai de chance que l'examen pour l'extension 1 est après celle pour 2U ...
