    Besides

    that's exactly the same as me.. but i wrote stuff down for 3cii and 6cii but i highly doubt i'll get any marks for them.. my favourite question was the turkey question!!!! just seeing the word "turkey" in a hsc extension maths exam made me smile, and "elephant" in 4u.. lol. 12;44 ftw!! i'm...

    did any 4u students find this paper hard?

    hmm i reckon that it was a pretty good test.. i wouldn't say it was holistically hard, but in comparison to past 3unit tests- it was pretty difficult.. & the only way in which 4u really benefited me was the integration qus, which weren't hard anyway and having done 4u just makes everything seem...

    Did anyone screw up the exam?

    yes, yes it was. i practically memorised [while still understanding the concept] all of the tips in jeff geha's 50 tips, and i think used about 1. i couldn't have predicted the crap they threw in there as it was all quite left of centre.. ie an elephant themed exponential qu, random circle...

    General Thoughts: Mathematics Extension 2

    Re: What did you think? gahh i really don't think that this years exam allowed me to show what i know... at all... the integration was good, but alot harder than past years, complex was good, question 3 was alright, my responses to question 4 will probably make the examiners cry, question 5 was...

    Best MX2 textbook

    i grew quite attached to dear old fitzpatrick. the examples are brilliant, the questions get a bit hard in some cases though [ie mechanics]. but geha's 50 tips is just the holy grail of maths books.. has taught me almost everything i know [in 4u]!! ;)

    which years hsc ex 2 is the hardest?

    i thought the 1993 hsc was incredibly hard.. by contrast, i reckon 2006 and 1999 were about as easy as a 4unit test can get.

    Distinction Courses: Interest and discussion on the proposed cancellation of courses

    this is a scandal!! while the government is squandering its monopoly on a "computer for every student", distinction courses are not just spectacular opportunities- but potent statements which provide gifted students a chance to exploit their academic prowess-- & they're axing them...

    2009 HSC English Texts - What are you studying?

    Gahahaha!! my teacher is good friends with good ol' Skrzynecki, & also Steven Herrick of 'the simple gift' fame. Apparantly, a few years back a class performed a rendition of one of the aforementioned authors' text [my memory is failing me atm] and the respective author came and watched it...

    Does year 11 matter?

    i think you owe it to yourself to do as well as you can [without burning out].... ie the school certificate- the mindset of thousands---"aaah!! i dont wanna study!! doesn't count for anything!! i'm gonna go play slime games on the computer. stuff science!" whilst i sat in the corner with my...

    worst/best english novel you have ever read in school?

    Best would definitely be Dracula [Stoker], gotta love the ye olde 19th century and the 459248389650968398902890 different appropriations of le classique text. Worst would be The Shipping News [Proulx]... where were the Pulitzer judges' minds???? It's so bleak, dreary and the knots at the...

    Day Or Night?

    under the cloak of darkness, my dear :) i am most productive circa 18;00-1;00... i wish that the school day started later, to give the old head a chance to get into gear. & yeah, there's so many new people.. so many threads.. & its all just come to a halt. eh.

    Subject Selection for Yr 12

    my subjects are kinda in question atm.... i am DEFINITELY, no-nonsense doing the following: 4u eng, bio, chem so i will have 3 lines of frees. and i am more than likely going to become suicidal during that time, or shall take up some health degenerating activity like alcoholism and begin my...
