    What was your parents & family reaction to your UAI?

    My mother went apeshit initially but my father doesn't really mind. As of this moment, she's busily looking for Unis which I can actually get into...or pay my way into. I got 97 flat.

    How accurate is SAM?

    I'm pretty certain it overestimates. I was feeling a bit depressed one day and shoved in some (i consider bad) marks ie. a Band 4 for my worst subject. And the estimate was well in the 98s. So.... Something's definitely wrong there. But my school is really ass. We know that we get 40ish 99+ each...

    16 Year olds doing the HSC

    Accelerating isn't really a big thing usually it's done in small numbers so it's not something to worry about. Occasionally, there's a headmaster like mine who thinks it's wise to accelerate half the year 11 cohort in maths. (we all did pretty well though )

    Knocking off Ruse

    Kinda true. does 10 people a class make it small? but asides from that, the number of Ancient Greek students is 2. and I'll bet $100 it'll be 100% band 6 with those guys. they're ridiculously good.

    Knocking off Ruse

    I was gonna say no, but too late. 2004 was an awful year for our school, 50% more many boys got 99+ the previous year. and 2005 is also did better than 04. If i remember rightly, 04 got in the late teens for rank... truly a dark year for sydney high.

    school rankings?

    hear hear. I can't hack Hornsby Girls, Sydney Girls, North Sydney Boys and Grammar (not even selective!) beating us. We must bring back the glory days.

    James Ruse are cheaters and the BOS do not care.

    Hey, we did t-formula this year lol. and yes, circle geo was done in year 10. I don't believe JR will blatantly cheat like that. There's something called acceleration and in my grade, they accelerated 110 boys in maths. I for one, did my 2U maths this year. and the truth is, anyone who takes...

    what makes james ruse better than other schools??

    Unfortunately, all true. Even you've gotta admit it Bookie- every time you go to a net cafe in the CBD during school hours, there's always guys from our grade in them. At least one guy! 24/7 You read my mind. btw, what WAS your application? mine was High > NSBHS > Tech > Fort Street...

    Most Beautiful Women

    Keira Knightley takes my vote. She's so pretty in Pride and Prejudice and she's exceptionally beautiful in all films she's been in recently. Though she is a bit flat.

    Advanced English vs. Standard English

    Yeah, true. but i still don't get what's up with that? why have Adv and Standard if they're identical?

    Beating the James Ruseans

    yeah makes me think i shoulda done some more accelerated subjects... all we're doing now is acc maths, which i think is pretty useless. considering just about everyone's taking up 4U. well, for one. i think that 200 a grade in year 12 is a lot of guys, i'm not sure if that's common or...
