This won't be helpful to you, but my 2U and 3U classes have done nothing on logarithms at all this year... is it even in the prelim course?

Nuh, my school doesn't offer it. Not really surprising, we've got about 35 in my year. If only they offered Economics...

Re: English Level Standard. I'm sort of regretting it now, if I had a choice now I might go Advanced. Oh well, I hate writing to a format.

I usually get around 7 hours, sometimes more, but sometimes I get less when I stay up to do assignments or I'm suffering from insomnia.

So far I think I've used two 192 page A4 books, maybe three. That doesn't include Maths Extension.

Only a handful. So far only one day this year where I've wagged school, and that was the swimming carnival, where I always do that anyway. I might've had a few days sick, but that's it.

True. I suppose I like Legal so much because I've almost trained myself to be a solicitor by reading at home. Fair enough, if you don't like remembering so much stuff.

Why Legal?!?! Surely you could find some worse subject to drop.

Re: Folders or Books? I presently use two folders, one for 2/3U Maths and Physics, and one for English and Legal. For 2U Maths we use a book, and I also keep books for 3U Maths summary and an English journal. I sort of wish I'd gone for books. Otherwise, I'll be buying more folders for next...

I almost want to do EE2 without doing EE1 or Eng Adv :P I love writing.

I'm not dropping anything, even though since I've got a few accelerated units done I could actually drop down to 4 units next year. :P In fact I'm picking up 4u maths.

Re: Australian Politics Chatter Thread Go Oakeshott! I wasn't expecting such a huge win. (I say this as one of his 700-odd campaign volunteers on Saturday.)

I'm really starting to get stressed about this. At my school we're doing a 3-5 min speech using one prescribed and one chosen text, and how they relate to the concept of power. The two texts I'm using are In Flanders Fields (McCrae) and 1984 (Orwell). The advice here about just going without...

At the school hampsters_rul and I go to, we only get a 1wk assessment free period. Even then, teachers will sometimes ask us to bend the rules. I'd love to not have any more than two assessments at once. Thankfully this English task I'm doing now is my last assessment this term, not counting...

My school's given year 11 a stuvac day :D Which does however mean I actually have to study....

Yesterday: Legal: After doing revision we started watching the authoritative film on Australian constitutional law, The Castle. Can't wait to see the rest of it. Maths: revision English: fire drill, then getting marks from our assessment task on Macbeth. I can't believe I came 1st in...

Hour early for 3u maths (half-asleep), then English (still waking up, but OK), then 2u maths (still couldn't think)... then a free, then Legal (which was OK), then Physics (which was OK as well). Exams next week. I could be studying now but I really don't feel like it.

Got to go home early yesterday after the newspaper came around to interview me and I only had 30mins of physics left :)

Zimbabwe's 'elections' aren't much. I hope this time they underestimated the swing to the MDC and even with all their ballot-box stuffing Tsvangarai still wins.

Today we discovered our first barrister hadn't finished writing the opening address so for five minutes before we started we were writing like crazy trying to get it done. I wonder if that contributed to our loss :P
