Why is it that all the schools seem to use Maths in Focus when it is so bad? My school uses it so I went and got myself Cambridge today just to save myself from failure. Surely the teachers realise that there are better textbooks out there? Can someone offer some enlightenment here?

Isn't Khomeni already dead? I thought he was the one who died and somehow that had something to do with the Iranian Revolution... :confused: Perhaps don't take my word for that

As bad as he is (or now, was), somehow I don't think execution was the right thing to do... we can probably expect an upswing in violence in Baghdad over the next day or so Bit sadistic to record it... (I know they had to, but seeing someone get hanged on YouTube isn't very tasteful)

It seems that noone can finish Catch 22 first go... I only know 2 people that have (me included) yet everyone agrees that its a really good book...:confused:

READ CATCH 22!! Funniest book ever!! (that, and you'll actually find out what a 'Catch-22' is - instead of having to rely on other people's crap explanations) Also, try The Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka; I just read it, its really good :) Or you could always read The Communist Manifesto -...

:rofl: 159th!! hehe something like only 9% of our kids get a distinguished achievers thingo, so i'm thinking 159th isnt too bad considering..... then again a girl at my school got 1st in advanced english - so i guess that goes to show how every school has its "diamond in the rough" that...

Oh dear, this is embarrassing... I think Wollongong's highest is Smith's Hill at 46th(?)... and I can't see my school on that list.. does anyone know what St Mary Star of the Sea came? Or do I not wanna know...

Great work on getting an interview in the first place!! The only help I can really give is that the Medicine brochure thingy at http://www.medfac.usyd.edu.au/futurestudent/med/MedicineSydneyUni-Brochure.pdf says that there is a "semi-structured, objective interview". I rekon you should plan for...

I wonder if Harry and co. have realised that it starts getting hectic towards the end of each school year... like come on, as much as I like the series, is Harry etc that blind? As if you wouldn't spend your whole year learning various hexes and such in order to prepare for the "completely...

As I am currently having a Kafka craze, I just finished The Metamorphosis yesterday. Its very cool; Gregor wakes up as a man-sized bug, it follows his struggle with his 'condition' in his family's home. I think its a good little piece about isolation and discrimination, and it made me feel a...

By the way, I don't get the maths grades. Any help?

Nice work!! I got: English - 92 Maths - 91 Science - 92 Geography - 96 History - 91 Computing Skills - 93

Re: Piercings and Tats I got one on my left wrist - its about 3cm by 1.5ish. It's my cousin's name in Arabic (she died after a car crash earlier this year)(and my family is Lebanese - hence the Arabic). It rated pretty high on the pain scale, but its a funny kind of pain... its a bit like...

Ahhh.. it all makes sense now thanks for that!

Just out of interest, why is it MBBS and not BMBS (apart from it being catchier)?

I finished it a couple of days ago, but I'm not too sure that I understood all of it... it has a wierd sort of ending, its a bit unnerving in a way

God no. Business Week is the biggest waste of time ever. Would've rathered gone to class. Don't see why we couldn'tve done work experience instead. You get in groups (we didn't get to choose), name your 'hotel' and make descisions each 'quarter' (for 8 quarters) as to how you run the...
