Yeah, I reckon this will actually motivate you to work harder - because if you don't - you're stuffed basically. As long as you have good marks and ranking with all of your subject I can't see why you shouldn't just do 11 units - less pressure will probably mean more effort into all of your...

Exactly, to succeed in 4u you need to put in a hell of a lot of effort, and since dpospination wants to do 4u english as well that could prevent him from putting the required effort into both subjects. Dpospination - I reckon if you want to be an engineer you should be doing 4u maths. Try...

Hmm I don't really know whats my best/worst - marks pretty simular in all subjects. Best subject probably is Business I think and worst would have to be physics or english, however by saying that the marks are pretty much equal across all my subjects.

I had Extension English and Extension maths, but I dropped extension english to focus on accelerated maths.

Re: How long are your periods?? Mon -Wed and Fri - 7 periods - 45 mins each Thursday - 5 periods - 34 minutes each I prefer these shorter periods than having really long periods, like some schools having periods which are over an hour.

Well the Distinction courses are probably really hard, so I don't think the BOS or the Unis want to let any jack ass off the street do it.

I don't think you can accelerate in maths on your own, and if you do it'll be pretty hard. If your in Year 9, I'm guessing you'll be aiming to do the School Certificate this year? If you are, then I'd say go for it, but if you're on your own, I wouldn't accelerate in Yr 11/12 maths yet. At my...

Yeah, thats pretty much what i concluded to. Well what I got out of this was basically, that I could do either and prob wouldn't lose marks, which is basically my main concern.

Ok thanks guys! It's just confusing because some peopkle (and some books) say one thing, and some say another.

Hey guys, just a simple question... When sketching sin i/sin r which value goes on the x-axis (horizontal). because some say sin i and some ppl say sin r. Thanks guys.

Hmm probably business studies cuz its the easiest soo far. Religion's been a bludge, and SDD's but too much theory =[ Math's is really good only at ym school we're really rushing it - yr 12 half yearlies in a few weeks =[

Yeah, i guess I should have been more clear. If your accelerated you can choose to do Philosophy, Cosmology and Comparative literature at Uni (I think it's either Sydney or Charles Sturt)

Yea exactly! Basically if you work hard this year then its like your dropping 2 or 3 units next year - which I assume would be a great relief.

We're doing the Accelerated Course (2u and 3u) so we've finished all the Year 11 work in 5 weeks and we're now doing Geometrical Applications of Calculus and Mathematical Induction.

Business Studies: 19/20 - Essay 20/20 - Report Maths: 29/30 - 1st Topic So I reckon I'm doing alright - if only they counted to my report......

Yeah they really keep you interested and wanting to continue reading - especially Smiley's People. Unlike a certain author *cough* Joseph Conrad *cough*

I'm hoping to do these subjects for the HSC: Mathematics Extension 2 Mathematics Extension 1 (if I do crap this year) English Advanced Studies of Religion 1 Business Studies Physics OR Software Design & Development - one's gotta go, but not sure which one and maybe Cosmology or Philosophy.

I went to Yennora Public and Patrician Brothers' Primary

Re: Recommended Texbooks/Study Guides? Maths I use Fitzpatrick and I've used Cornoeous before. Both pretty good.

Yeah, Heart of Darkness is one of the main reasons why I dropped Extension English. I don't know why people reckon Joseph Conrad is a good author - seems like a load of crap to me.
