bye why did i just search vestigial just to see people's umbilical cords but yeah its a nice word methinks too

i think my bio teacher may have done a double degree?? or did like sciences and something for teaching/becoming an educator cause they actually graduated from the school and returned as a teacher lol

and thats interesting LOL how on earth did he go from pe to bio do you think he was more invested in his previous subject
Ohh my bio teacher did a degree in sport science I think, and he taught at a sports school for a long time but somehow made it to our school... out of a stroke of luck?? He's a pretty chill guy, just not incredibly skilled in bio.

It makes sense that your teacher did a double degree because a lot of people who do science degrees end up going into teaching. As a school alumni though, that's really cool because they know the school well and maybe you can get some inside info from them lol

Hi! Don't worry, this page isn't too active at the moment
We have just started polypeptide synthesis but we didn't spend enough time on reproduction

What are you up to?
well we're doing pregnancy hormones and all that atm (still on iq1), though we were given an assessment task today which is basically on the end dot points of module 5 but that's due in around a months time... so hopefully that all works out o_O

Yeahh same our assessment task goes really far, but fingers crossed it'll work out. The only reason why we were able to move on from reproduction so quickly was because our teacher decided that it was a really tedious topic so he asked us to try to learn it ourselves over the last holidays... :blink2:

I feel that way for basically the whole of yr 11 :spzz:. like what had i been doing for the whole year?; I'm more disappointed with myself as it went so quickly and to 'waste'. And now I'm trying to fix all those bad procrastination and study habits :tongue:

aw thats good hes a moderately decent?? teacher for the topic i guess you could also collaborate with people from the other classes if youre friends with any of them and they dont mind being cushy with notes/resources if it does differ

i suppose people who do sciences do end up going into education cause the head of science here did a whole bunch of chem/physics and other exciting jobs before settling into teaching at multiple schools prior to mine but all i can really say is that this one has pretty high expectations for presumed knowledge and independency and if that doesnt work out half of the lesson is them going on about how "you should already know this" "even the juniors know more than you guys" and just like that doesnt make the class any more productive or helpful to learning lol i think the teaching style requires you to work harder in your own time (which is valid) but other than that its just a personality issue that may be justified from their experiences since they always talk about how they couldve done x and x instead of take up teaching if they wanted more money but also theyre interested in education which is why they chose to pursue it in the end

i did find it funny when they said that if they were really only looking forward to making the most amount of money after hs they wouldve done tafe/picked up a trade job doing construction and selling real estate + the sort instead of university/scholarships and whatever

dangg but science isn't a great career here in Aus so I don't think he should he boasting about how he could be somewhere else
reminds me of my eco teacher who keeps boasting that he's earning lots on the stock market and could quit his job at any point but is just here "because he wants to" lmao
