Where's your transcript? How many interviews were there in total this year?

My dad's last name is Zhu, so I suppose I am that "somebody" lol Thanks for the link velox. I've only just glanced through it, and all the universities I'm interested in take international students (or at least international students with US degrees). Some also loan money to students, and I'm...

hahaha, yes I'm pretty sure our fathers know each other. My last name is Li btw lol. I don't know anyone called Su though... I don't think I've met you in person, though I've been to couple of the UNSW Med lectures

intersection eq: x^3-(m+1)x+2=0 all tangents through the origin will intersect the cubic twice, so the equation above has only 2 roots when y=mx is a tangent. In particular one of these roots is a double root (point of tangency). Hence when you differentiate, the equation will still have the...

Yeah, it'll be pretty hard, but I like a challenge otherwise I'd end up slacking off. I'm not that worried about the money, I can always borrow and pay it back later. I'll be studying at Princeton, probably majoring in molecular biology and neuroscience. And thanks soylicious, I'm in Sydney...

Thanks man! And sorry I don't know who you are :( Med at Melbourne's really good (better than UNSW ... ok don't kill me :P) but I feel like doing some more general education. I think going US college will be a good experience and I can always do med later. Added to the fact that US med...

Need a tutor who is avaliable for insane amounts of time leading up to the trials? No problem! My name is Charles and I am offering tutoring in Maths (up to 4U), Physics, Chemistry. At the moment I am not attending university (was studying medicine at Melbourne), so I can basically do anytime...

UMAT is not a criteria for Usyd med they only look at your UAI (+interview)

If you don't do maths, you won't get into Usyd med, as their undergrad med involves TSP science which has a maths requirement. It may be a moot issue as the UAI cut-off is 99.95 (no UMAT at Usyd)

I hear that you guys have 33 contact hours a week...

lol, I know who you are too I'm not too sure of the criteria on reinvites. One of them is what your tutor thinks of you (ie work well in tutes/private study). Involvement in the olympiad programme probably helps. If you're well known to Terry, I think that helps too. Vinh didn't even submit...

Hey Harris, there was a small clue :P and Tom found it cos he spends too much time on BoS/is a stalker seriously, Tom, you're disturbing but what happened with Templar?

Yeah, I was there last year. I'm returning as an EG

I'll be there too. Why is everyone sad at going? It's really fun, and there is a lot (ie too much) free time.

congrats haque I got one too, and so did Vinh. As this is the 2nd year of this course, I'd have no idea what the questions are like but I suppose they are much the same as all the other unis. when's your interview?

this year you only needed 25/30 to get a medal (for yr12)

We had our school's English Extension 2 major works published in a book at Snap Printing. I don't think 30 400page books are a "commercial" quantity but it was a decent job though quite expensive (around$800).

QBGuy is the pro. He can finish a (standard) Rubics in 18 seconds. The method I use is the layer by layer approach where you do one face then the middle layer then the top face. As BlackDragon says, its really hard to explain without demonstrating it. Google will probably help you find a site...

congrats haque
