I got marks of around 60% for more than half of my Ext. 2 maths assessments, and still ended up with an aligned mark of 93, which scales to 94.8, and is the top 10% of Maths Ext. 2 candidates. Admittedly, this is a hard subject with low raw marks compared to the final scaled marks, but the point...

:) If there weren't people like us, then there would be no Lazarus, and no SAM :p

I'm fairly sure I will do it, perhaps as a research project in physics.

I'll be doing it too.

Exactly... these staff lists are the pages I linked in my last post. :uhhuh:

AVI itself is actually typically uncompressed, I think. Before compression with a third-party codec such as DivX, AVI files are extremely large... but the existence of these codecs makes AVI's able to be compressed much more effectively than MPG (incidentally, this is probably why you find mpgs...

The table ~ ReNcH ~ was referring to, I think, is Table A3 of the UAC's Scaling Report. Having a look at my own HSC documents, it would appear that it's not just a simple case of two marks to a bar graph. I think even marks appear on the line between two bars, and odd marks appear in the bar...

When in doubt, check the syllabus :uhhuh: It says: "The Process Log The process log should contain: • description of procedures • log of sequential development of the topic • record of major decisions of the project • review: cumulative self, peer and teacher evaluation of the project...

No, those questions are sufficient. The syllabus says, "Each case study has a principal focus and five associated areas of historical debate. The case study enables students to examine historiographical issues within a specific context." (Syllabus, page 11). The idea is to apply the five key...

Yes, you should make some sort of judgement. My teacher said it is best that you don't just leave this until the conclusion, either - present it all the way through the essay, though you don't have to completely attack the opposing viewpoint. There are usually contact details, along with...

Yep, I will be doing advanced science for the science component of my BSc/BE.

Probably mechanical engineering; physics and nanotech.

BE / BSc, with the idea of doing advanced science. I really need to look at a handbook because I have no idea what subjects I'm enrolling in :(

:uhhuh: (10 chars)

No, I don't think selective reading is wrong - in fact, I'd say it's probably smarter. Don't forget your essay is only 2,500 words, 3,000 max. if your teacher is lenient. There is not a lot of room to fit in your material, certainly not enough to accommodate all the ideas in 6 books. If you have...

That would be a matter for your school to decide, I'm fairly sure the syllabus doesn't stipulate any regulations there. Although I handed in about three proposals over time, I didn't hand in the final one which actually got marked until I gave in my project, and I wrote it during the holidays...

Offers are also published in the Saturday papers, and you can get them over the phone or Internet, so there shouldn't be a problem.

I am a fan of dropping www. I think it's happening because 'www' takes so long to pronounce in audiovisual media. For a company looking to promote their website, it's much more punchy to just say amazon.com or apple.com than to have to include the w's. For whoever said www makes it obvious that...

97. I think I messed up a bit of the personality, but I'm still happy on the whole.

The debate over the moon landing is too conspiratorial/journalistic and not historiographical/academic enough, imo. You'll have a hard time finding reputable sources - there are simple scientific arguments refuting most (if not all) of the apparent 'NASA mistakes'. I would agree that it's not...
