    Official UAI Thread: Post your UAI's here

    SAM said avg 99.6 I got 99.25 and that is still cool. Unless someone throws a scholarship in my lap (unlikely) say hello to a BSci (Adv Maths)/B Eng at USYD. Edit: Where's Laurie Field??? I wanna know what he got.

    Chemistry vs Physics - difficulty?

    Both are hard in their own ways... the stupid sullabus makes them both harder, having to learn all those bloody things like "the effect on society of transistors" and "how Galvani, Davy and Farady helped our understanding of electron transfer reactions" Physics concepts are hard. Once you've...

    Talented Student Day

    Really? Damn, sounds interesting... Wish I was inyear 12 last year, or at least had been sent off to miss a day of school to be bamboozled by Mathmatics at the good old UTS.

    Talented Student Day

    Woah. OK... that's agressive mathematics. You know, there once was a time when I thought I was good at Maths... Unfortunately, I keep finding that there are people better.

    Talented Student Day

    Woah, if that's in the HSC, I'm screwed.... People* say that the Trials are supposed to be harder than the HSC... but it seems to me that this is for every subject other than ME2... In any trial paper I've done, I've seen nothing like some of the curly ones the Board chucks in for question...

    a b scans

    That's right. And B (brightness scan) is basically the same thing as an A scan, except that a computer turns the ultrasound it receives into a series of greyscale dots. i.e. big amplitude=brighter dot. You take a series of these scans in slightly different directions and piece them together to...

    Talented Student Day

    Re Circular Motion... by the end of it I wanted to strangle that stupid Buffy .gif It didn't even LOOK like buffy... and it's like, he played music from the opening credits of Kill Bill twice, but skipped over it in his haste to finish, and then let all the crap boybands play for excruciating...

    Talented Student Day

    Well, I *thought* I did... can't find it at the moment - my room's a total wreck at the moment... wierd, I'll sweat I was looking at it only a few days ago. From memory, and my second and third choices... apart from what im doing Sesion A: groups and quantum mechanics can mathematics...

    Talented Student Day

    *checks sheet* Session A: "Gentle eddies, the Great Red Spot and the myth of the bathtub vortex" Session B: "Oceans, Climate, Weather and Maths" Session C: Circular and Resisted Motion, it's the one we haven't done yet. Dammit, the Japanese codebreaking one sounded cool! I'm sure I'll...

    Ext 2 English + Ext 2 Maths??

    I do both. I enjoy ME2. I think it might have something to do with the fact I'm topping it (or at least was last time I checked... but anything can happen). But nah... we worked on the teacher a bit and convinced her that we were doing excessive amounts of homework, so we get cutdowns of...

    How many words?

    I procrastinate so much, that I can tell you the latin roots of the word. And I dropped latin a year ago. I'm not doing a critical response, I'm doing a website, (don't shoot me for being in the wrong forum - Cicciolina is in my class), so technically, I don't have a word limit. I've done...

    Journals

    I have a notebook that I take notes from class in. But I keep forgetting it, so I have half of them on bits of paper. Then theres a huge scrap book that I stick my ournal that I type up nominally every week. Though mostly it happens a bit more sporadically, and I spend half of it saying, "And...

    What medium are the '04's using?

    Lol HEY!!! How was your Viva? Cook was pretty cool in mine, and Dillon appeared quite interested in what I had to say. According to my clock, you finished no more than 5 minutes ago... so I'll message you in a min, or email, or maybe, *shock horror* even call you.

    Close to finishing yet?

    Harder 3U and Circular Motion. Or so the teacher says... but that doesn't mean much Trials for 3 and 4u next Thursday and Friday for us *wrinkles nose*

    Viva voice

    I'm pretty sure that my school's weighting's the same as your's. I did good on the proposal... and the Viva's tomorrow, which will bomb :S And I haven't heard anything about the report since like term 4 of 2003. What is it again?

    What medium are the '04's using?

    We have 9 students in EE2 (and that's a lot for us). But we have 5 teachers. Go figure. I'm doing a website on LOTR. The other girl in my class is doing a critical response on some random poets. There's a few short stories, a few more critical responses, a play and a speech as well. I...
