    Part time work in the Prelim year?

    Lol at the end of year 10 my Maths teacher told me working gave you a balance and good time management. I had a job for year 11 and 12 and I did fine. And I'm not organised at all. :haha:

    UNSW or USYD Need Help Please

    if you take advanced units in the normal degree at USyd and get a credit average in them then you graduate with advanced science. Whereas at UNSW you need honours. And, I've heard teaching is brilliant at USyd. But I don't actually know because I'm not an ed student.

    Regarding a band 6 essay...

    6 quotes 3 techniques for each The effect and explanations are more important (and the techniques and quote should be integrated with this if you want a band6). Yay.

    Smart Tattoos

    I'm never getting a tattoo. I just feel like, if the symbol goes out of fashion it'll look stupid, if I have it somewhere no one will see it then there's no point, and both of my brothers have several and they're just terrible. So tattoos are shit. Especially if you're down with fashun.

    Subs or Dubs

    Subtitles for live action. Dubs for non-live action. I prefer dubs though. I catch myself struggling to read the subtitles and it distracts from my attention to the actual show/film. Also, if I look at something else for two seconds I can hear and understand the dubs but would have to pause...

    How did you guys write 1000 words in 40 minutes?

    honestly I think I could've gotten 12-14/15 in the essay if I didn't do crucible and my teacher was better. So you shouldn't be that worried. :P It was the worst of my essays by far. I think they're more worried about writing it in the style a top advanced student would.

    How did you guys write 1000 words in 40 minutes?

    I dunno. I didn't really memorise my responses but do whatever you can to do well. Yeah… you pretty much need 90 to get 90. Section 1 is easy to get 15/15 in if you aren't shit. Section 2 is good if you're creative. Section 3 is a bit more difficult because you have to write at an advanced...

    How did you guys write 1000 words in 40 minutes?

    But if you want higher than 86 you should probs work on your vocabulary and sophistication. It's not like other sections brought me down or anything, my marks were: Paper 1 Unseen - 14/15 Creative - 11/15 Belonging Essay (The Crucible) - 10/15 Paper 2 Distinctively Visual (Maestro) - 17/20...

    How did you guys write 1000 words in 40 minutes?

    Mostly intro, para 1, para 2, conclusion. But the paragraphs were like a page to a page and a half each. Yeah, massive focus on techniques and quotes and their effect. In standard that's like your main thing. The extra airy fairy shit is only supposed to be in their if your basic shit is...
