Re: What are your English prescribed texts yet? We're doing Romulus My Father for AoS; Frankenstein/Blade Runner Hamlet Levertov's Poetry

I wish we did this! We have 'tutor groups' with 18 or so people in each, and a teacher, but we've had that since Y7. It sounds really good, but not so much if you get a 'bad' teacher...

Most definitely Ancient. (or chem, now that I think about it)

Is there any way that you could change another class to take up senior science? It seems like that's what you'd like to do, but if not, I think you should wait a few weeks before dropping completely. Remember that Phys is a course that builds on the prelim a lot, so if you really don't get...

yeah, my class told our principal about it, and suddenly after lunch it was magically fixed.

DROP BUSINESS. (I did, the feeling of joy is still with me) Like seriously just drop Business like it's a hot potato. If you hate it, you won't do as well. Besides Chem is awesome.

guys the wifi went out at our school and the whole school went into shutdown mode.

you need to factor in time for things other than study. don't let it take over your life, because with that schedule, you'll burn out.

me too. there are people at school freaking out over belonging already. guys. we've had one lesson

Just trying to keep things in order from when we got them. Although for German I have different areas to keep grammar and speaking practice questions.

Same, I'm going away over christmas and N/Y, so not much study going to be done. I personally feel that having a break is good though.

I personally teach my parents the course... helps me to understand the concepts better by having to explain them. Girls in my year teach their pets, on advice from my Ancient teacher, who teaches her pot plant.

Although, if you like the topics, it's easier to remember all the content. It helps to have an enthusiastic teacher, like my Ancient one... the way she says things makes it easier to remember them even without studying.

If you know what course you want to do, and maths isn't a prerequisite, then drop general. It seems so different from the rest of your subjects. But if not, then choose the one (to drop) that you think you'll either do the worst in, or will enjoy the least. From the people at my school's...

:( that's nasty... we got our paperwork in before the holidays- one of my friends dropped chemistry to go to 12 units, but picked it up again the next lesson because she missed it.

We've started Y12 work, and frees (subject drops) and extensions, is that what you mean by timetables? Because if not, our timetables only really change in term 1 next year...

not too bad. starting to research ideas for ext history, so that's fun.

Thanks :) (wish I could do EX2 without EX1 or advanced.)

Yeah, we got "You are not a number" "A number does not define your self worth".

Definitely... at least the teachers know the content really well. On the other hand, the markers might know it a bit too well.
