    So how smart are selective school students nowadays?

    Agree. I go to Girra, and in maths we range from ~40-100%, English ~50-90%, Chem ~70-low 90s, Phys ~70-low90s. Selective students are pretty intelligent overall. An average student would get around 70-80% per subject; however it's very hard to find someone with the average. Usually, they're an...

    I used to get really confused on this too - but: Try remembering it as an mnemonic - GSCD. Good songs can't die. (power is distributed between 3 arms of government = separation, constitution [powers are divided between state & federal...

    The rank, type of school, number of people accepted & number of people who tried out sounds suspiciously like Girra. Am I right?

    Reviving this thread! xD Okay, I've played for 7 years. It's been 2 years since I finished 8th grade, I have unfortunately betrayed my classical upbringings - I play far too much soundtracks/new age/occasional good pop/rock songs. However, for classical music, I like baroque the best - I...

    SOR II or Legal Studies???!!!?

    SOR II is easier, I think. But, choose Legal! It does have a lot of content to remember, but it's really interesting and is a great humanity subject. You get to do a legal moot - like a mock trial, but you have no witnesses, just legal attorneys, which is super fun and really helps you with...
