    Band 6 cut off??

    I'm not going to vote in the poll because I think it will be somewhere in the 79-81/100 range. It was nice, but there were some things I just had to make up. Like, in Q2Q, I totally made up my answer to the Standard Model question! I will probably get 1, maybe 2 out of 4. Probably lost like 6...

    James Ruse Agricultural High

    But those guys are obviously intelligent. They display that in all their political jokes. Some of Andrew Hansen's songs have some jokes that require deep knowledge of stuff to understand as well

    Did anybody not notice how boring physics was until now?

    30 seconds?! It takes me a lonnnng time to do any of the writing questions. I always do the calculations first, because they're my forte. It takes me probably triple the time to get each mark in a writing question than in a calculation question. And I'm more likely to get the marks in...

    Apologizing

    I guess it must depend who this person is. I would much rather an apology than nothing IF you genuinely mean it. Saying nothing may make her think that you're just a jerk who doesn't care. If you don't care, then don't pretend you do. But I would like to think that you actually do care. In that...

    secrets to chemistry success

    Haha yeah, and the bouncers wouldn't let ethanol inside the under 18's club; or potassium or calcium for that matter! It was the work of a genius!

    Did anybody not notice how boring physics was until now?

    Physics is fun and interesting when you learn it for the sake of learning it and gaining knowledge. It's when the motivation for learning it is a mark at the end of the course that it gets boring, I must admit that I wasted valuable assessment time on learning stuff beyond the course :o

    2008/09 English premier League

    Re: 2008 English premier League Well in current form, it would appear that Arsenal are that 4th club. Liverpool don't necessarily have a team that's as flashy or impressive as others, but we work well together. Although we do have our off games, i.e. against the spurs. In my opinion, we are...

    Recommend me some good screamo bands

    Haha, I find it hilarious that someone would totally disregard a band because the members are Christians. The fact that they are Christians doesn't affect their musical ability or anything. Even if I wasn't a Christian, I would still choose to listen to them over many other screamo bands because...

    Recommend me some good screamo bands

    UnderOATH. They are unsurpassable :) If you want any more, then maybe: All that Remains; August Burns Red; Haste the Day (although I'm not a massive fan of his scream); Oh, Sleeper (<3) That's just a few...

    Scaling of raw marks

    I think that would've been taking into account the difficulty of the exam. The exam wasn't actually that difficult, it was just quite different. So it actually suited some people, meaning that the cut-offs may not be as low as we may hope :( Anyway, I PMed you lou071

    Physics or Chemistry??

    I think that I could spend 2-3 weeks and learn everything in the physics course, but it would take about twice as long to learn the chem course. Also, if you're not going into physics related stuff, I think it is very irrelevant to your life, whereas chem is far more relevant. If you do ext.2...

    Yeah, the MX1's aligning is sweeeeeeeeet!

    State Ranking

    I can give testament to the possibility of careless errors wreaking havoc with your exam marks. I made 9 marks worth of careless errors. 9! It will be the difference between 99 and like 94/95. I usually thrive under exam conditions, but I guess the HSC must be different somehow. I'm sure state...

    Australian Scientist

    It's in the 9.1 Skills section under 12.3 e) identifying practising male and female Australian scientists, and the areas in which they are currently working and in formation about their research I didn't realise we had to until now :confused: I don't really know of any specifics, but you could...

    Help!!

    You will never need to use that formula. Having said that, it can be a nice shortcut if projectiles aren't your strong point. One negative thing with it is that if it is projected from a different height to where it lands, that formula doesn't work. So I would suggest instead knowing how to...

    scaling

    Depending on the difficulty of the exam, 61/84 could align to anything up to 91/92. But that would have to be quite a difficult exam. So with this year's exam, I would say you definitely have a chance of a band E4 with 61/84. If you're unlucky though, it may only be 89. Hopefully 90 or 91 :)
