and if we don't get a D or HD, we never find out what our PIP got, do we?? don't they send a little report about each one or something?? that's what i've heard anyways...:)

and you should always write out the calculator display before rounding off, so if you stuff up, you'll get one mark... :)

i didn't get corrected at all!! which is surprising... however, she did repeat a part of a question, the one i asked her to slow down on!! i know someone who didn't show up to their speaking exam because they forgot :(

so now i just have to beg for 7 more points before i have 50!! wOOt!!

sorry to shatter your dreams, but you REALLY need to know it... if you did advanced maths in year 10 you should have covered it anyway.... :) but then again if you've learnt y-y1=m(x-x1) it's virtually the same because m=y2-y1/x2-x1

go through everything in textbooks, i.e. HOW to do each section in each topic... then TEST yourself by doing past papers, HSCs and trials. And I find it good to have the worked answers, so if I get stuck, I can see where I'm supposed to be going. :)

ok, how many of you got your peers to sign a book, your shirt, a teddy, etc etc?? post the most touching or funniest autograph here!! :)

thanks!! i need as much support and encouragement i can get... i think we all do!! now it's only 3 weeks till the start of the bigguns, so better get cracking!!! :)

if you're referring to the RET test (I seriously can't keep up with this RET STAT thing... confuzzled), you get the results on 30 November. :)

you'd prolly be better off posting this in the UAI guidance forum... don't forget to include ur ranks and school - it's easier for the "whizzes" to work it out!!! :)

STAT testing is different to RET... i know the RET incorporates the STAT, but they're used for different reasons.

i just don't want to get caught up in all the hype on the Gold Coast... i'm not into partying/drinking/being stupid etc... i'd rather go south with my friends and enjoy their company, or maybe visit my brother in qld, i haven't really started to plan yet... :p and as for cruises, i...
