I got nominated too and I'm over the moon! Fingers crossed

Well at my school you have to do 12 units unless you go through a long process of interviews and such but really I do need maths just IN my school report. Also I have 16 studies as there are no 4 unit classes. But I do agree with what you're saying and if it goes that badly I will drop it, not...

1.Yes you can change, although really consider if you want to do Business Studies. 2. To the other question, Economics is more difficult than Bio and also scales significantly better. To give you an idea of comparison : Bio= Business Phys/Chem= Economics

Well I have seen Gattaca.... I'm hoping you have as well if you are doing it for your related text... I would say it's a negative belonging in that he belongs to the normal people who are not genetically modified to be 'perfect' and is heavily discriminated for this. I'm sure you can give...

....Really??? Uh-oh.... methinks I might need to call the BoS... :bomb:

Hey guys does anyone know when we get our PIN's for student online?

LOL. Considering Cranbrook teach it to us, and the Leading Edge textbook include it you are most definitely allowed to use it as your Case Study. Really you can do a Case Study on any country other than Australia. Of course the BRIC's are recomended as they have the most content.

The scalings a published every year. But just use the 2003 Scalings as they have all changed minimally since then. http://boredofstudies.org/scaledmeans.php So PDHPE does not have the best scaling but as everyone above said, just do well in all your subjects and scaling doesn't matter.

The above post covered everything you should need to know. As for scaling: 19.9 = Senior Science This is VERY low. http://boredofstudies.org/scaledmeans.php

I really wish I had just accelerated one subject (Business Studies) last year to give me more time to devote to this year, but our school doesn't let us :mad:.

Thanks for your concern mate.... you're very sincere. I'll be the first to admit I'm not mathematically gifted and agree that the subject is a waste of time. However, I think I'm gonna stick with it just for my report to the USA as they'll like to see a Maths of some sort on it, while I'll...

ANU is ranked 16th in the world every year. Macquarie..... not so much..... I suppose if you are set on transferring however you might like to consider staying in Sydney. If it was me I would visit ANU and see if I liked it before I made any rash decisions.

Re: Top 200 Schools - Daily Telegraph woot moved from 71st to 64th this year! :skip:

Stick with Advanced. You will probably find yourself working harder for Standard than you would be for Advanced if you are trying to attain your desired UAI. The marking scheme for Standard English is quite tough, they give out VERY few Band 6's. Advanced was a bit of a bore with the poetry...

Hey guys I know you get this alot but was just hoping to get some feedback on my particular circumstances. You can see my other subjects listed in my signature and I have done alright in all of them (range 70-95%). I'm going into Yr 12 in 2009 and am doing 12 units and my school rather...

Ridiculous.

Not true... you don't need to do Preliminary. Anyway mate If you DO repeat, do it through Open High School or through some sort of scheme like that. As for subjects, I think you might struggle doing any of Business, Legal or Economics. I do all 3 and all are HEAVILY reliant on their respective...

Yes, and everyone is emphasising how stupid it is to be overseas during your HSC Year. As they should. What she CAN do: Not be overseas again during this year. :ninja:

You need to consider all your other subjects and your respective grades. I also dropped from 2U to General and I hate General to be honest, its a bore and a drag, the pressure to do exceedingly well in a subject that scales so badly is also not pleasant. I have also heard that IPT is mind...
