    What course has the highest average pay to graduates?

    What degrees lead into Investment Banking? I've heard with intelligences and the ability to exist without a life it makes big money. This is also from my time at work experience.

    Formals - 2009

    Our Year 11 Semi is on a cruise in Sydney Harbour. $77 a person. All you can eat buffet, professional photographer, drinks bar, etc. Last year our Year 10 formal was in the hall, and despite the shitty food/location/No DJ it was still a great experience.

    When you need me on the Swimming team (24 seconds 25m freestyle represent) it's gonna lose no matter what. Though I am so much better than before it's not funny. Also I'm a guy, you're supposed to be lighter than me. Oh yeah by the way the uni course I want is 95.65 (Comm/Eco).

    How do i improve my ext2 results

    MX1 is still half the mark. ANd it does lay the groundwork for everything in 4U bar Complex. If if you need to brush up, use it.

    How do i improve my ext2 results

    Quick note. If you're the only student doing 4U your internals don't matter, your final exam mark is your assessment mark. So start spamming the past papers.

    How do i improve my ext2 results

    I learnt that from teachers/Year 12s. Knowledge of certain textbooks isn't hard to know when you have the 2/3U copies of them and know the style expected. Derek Buchana has linked to his notes on this site, and they are very very good. And Maths Online is sponsored by Maccas.

    School ranking COMPARISON

    People from my grade have made complaints against her for her shittiness. She teaches 2 Year 11 classes. She gave her class an assignment and never set a due date then gave them an N award when they didn't hand it in.

    Has anyone ever not finished their major work?

    The definition of a short story is a story that is read in one sitting. It is extremely easy to read 7000-8000 words in one sitting, especially if it flows well and is entertaining, which is what most EE2 Major Works are.

    How do i improve my ext2 results

    Cambridge is good, if a little light on the explantations. Fitz coevers this very well, and Coroneos is ridiculously good on Intergration, which is the backbone of a lot of 4U stuff. Try looking for Derek Buchanan's notes, they're a great way to self teach. Maths Online is probably the best for...

    To drop or not to drop???

    I probably wouldn't drop Maths, it's fairly useful for uni. Honestly in Maths, don't try understanding it, it doesnt work. Instead take every formula you learn as granted, memorize how to prove it and memorize all the formulas. THen do a few past papers so you know where to apply them. And...

    is there anyone else that just CAN'T be bothered?

    Funnily enough it's still easy to have a life with 2-3 hours of work per night.

    is there anyone else that just CAN'T be bothered?

    90% of kids in my school do. Deputy Principal recommends 3-4 hours (ideally 4). I do about 2, all of it Maths.
