That sounds quite hypocritical. The thread was not a university bashing topic until the 'usuals' decided to jump in and say 'omgz pRe5tIg3 meanz nothing lol lolz !1!1!1!oneoneone," even though that is completely irrelevant to the original purpose of the thread. That is, to discuss which...

Burn out? Rofl...what a senseless thing to suggest that many people would have from over studying. You would only 'burn out' if you were affected physically from studying(ie. 24 hours a day so that you suffer from sleep and food deprivation). There is really no such thing as burning out from...

The UAI is a ranking and not a score, which many people do not seem to get. Thus, you can get relatively low exam scores and still get a certain UAI, depending on how everyone else does. Just because you 'do nothing' and get a decent UAI, it doesn't mean that the HSC is too easy - it just means...

Then why didn't you go do the VCE and get a perfect ENTER? The only real argument for the HSC being harder than VCE are based on the maths subjects. Even then, it is only because the topics that are taught in HSC maths are as obscure as high school maths in Australia can get. You do realise...

The pilot program was implemented in a number of Victorian schools last year. However, it is now the physics which is studied. In other words, the 'normal' physics that Victorians did prior to this year has been completely replaced with the pilot physics studies. That, in my opinion, is not the...

Perhaps my example was a bit weird, I did not write out that question word for word. The question basically asks you to explain in terms of the material and structure of the birdge(photo given), what makes the bridge stable. Even though the 'expected' answer may not go into as much detail as you...

Xayma are you saying that VCE physics does not appreciate the history of physics and that the change towards a more HSC-like physics is good? If so then lol... High school physics, in my mind, is supposed to provide students with an introduction to, and preparation for, university level...

I am not entering the discussion/debate, but rather, I am going to point out the differences in the 'equivalent' subjects in Victoria and NSW. From what I have seen there are many differences in the subject content between Victoria and NSW alone. For example, permutations as a topic is 'dropped'...

To be honest, I cannot see how someone's performance in an exam can be predicted because you simply do not know how someone would do in an exam if they do not actually sit for it. Similarly, you cannot simply assume that people who are apparently disadvantaged would actually do well enough to...

Oh ok. I just didn't want to bludge and regret it later on.

I have question that I would like to ask. Are marks important in uni? Do high marks make it easier to get an interview with employers? Or does someone who barely passes their subjects have as much of a chance of getting a job interview as someone who consistently gets good grades?

Another way of integrating secx and cosecx(I'm not sure whether this method or another one is more quick since I haven't checked) is to multiply by (cosx/cosx) and (sinx/sinx) respectively and then use relevant identity + substitution + partial fractions.
