    Distinction Course Discussion

    I agree, that's why I don't really like the faxing thing... getting a dozen A4's must be annoying at the receiving end; if they actually GET the mail, then that's alot neater, all stapled and stuff :) I think you're overestimating the organisation of this office. How do you think they'll cope...

    Distinction Course Discussion

    ^^ I had my application all ready yesterday, signed by headmaster and everything... but then they were talking about teacher mentors and stapling other pages to the app and so now I'm not sure. My headmaster wrote his contact details under 'school contact'. So maybe he'll accept doing all the...

    Worried about Maths

    Hi everyone Just wanted to get your opinion of what to do. I do 2U maths, right, and we haven't even finished the prelim textbook yet, my teacher takes everything so slow! We have another whole chapter to go before we can start HSC textbook, so it'll probably be until like week 7-8 at least...

    10 units- whats the big deal?

    Hey Lemon, you know what I think-- do your 10 units :) Your MWs look promising, doesn't seem as if you'll put them off until the last week or something silly like that, and you'll have lots of time to study with all the frees. Seriously, I think it will be worse for you to take maths or...

    Holiday HSC Optimisation

    3. Be clear on why exactly you want to "do good", and remind yourself often, so you won't lose the drive. For example put 'study propaganda' on the wall over your desk - quotes, UAI aim, photos of Uni - may be cheesy but it might work :D Also, why are you worrying about holidays already...

    Best 09 Diary / Planner

    I think it's best to have both a diary and a wall-planner. The diary can be brought to school, write down h/w etc, while the wall-planner stays where you can see it from your study desk. On mine I've marked the dates of the big things- assessment tasks, exams- so that I keep in mind the big...

    First Day

    School today (it was great to start on a tuesday and not monday, but hey) -- school isn't calling us year 12s! We are still referred to as year 11s, in assembly and everything! And our new timetables call us year 11s too. I'm offended. I want to be year 12 NOW, dammit :D On another note, turns...

    Distinction Courses: Interest and discussion on the proposed cancellation of courses

    Haha, Tim, look at your sig! That's gold. The lecturer would be soo impressed, he'd be like "woah, a student who is so passionate about maths he has to solve each equation as soon as he thinks of it! Scrap cosmo, I'll make him an extra maths extension."

    Economics help

    erm. I'll try to help, there's a lot of things you can talk about- speaking off the top of my head here, someone will have to check for mistakes ;) ... The australian economy is in an upswing atm, so the govt is budgeting for a surplus- they have a 'mildly contractionary fiscal policy' in 08-09...

    Does SDD suck or what?

    I enjoyed SDD! I thought it was loads of fun, I thought the theory was interesting (apart from the social and ethical issues. SO boring.) ... then again, it was just me the year 10 and two year 12s in the class, so we were messing about most of the time- sometimes the teacher didn't even show...
