Actually, 2U math only has at most half a page of working out, and theres only a few of those in any test. Most of the questions take 1 or 2 lines to solve. :D
I agree. But I sometimes spend about a page when I do more challenging ones like Maxima and Minima question. But I never go over a page.

I tend to write a beautiful, concise answer for each question, finish the exam, and then when I'm finished and checking my work, 5 minutes before the end of the exam I suddenly panic, think everything is wrong, scribble it all out and end up getting the same solution, but far less elegant, about 2 seconds before the teacher says stop.

This is guaranteed to happen at least once every exam.

Haha that is happening to me more and more every time I go up a grade :( I remember in year 9 and 10, when we used to have so much time left over...I used to finish an hour early and write philosophy essays on the back of the paper :uhhuh: But all that is, sadly, over...

business sucks. i hate it with a passion. i hate every fibre of its existance, i despise it, i abhor it, i dislike it, i think its a useless bunch of crap.:angry:

you only need the basics to start a business.

anyway, so in which subject do you feel the urge to burn both your exercise and text book? and what are your thoughts on the said subject?

its interesting to see a different perspective. you might like a subject and others might just despise it. :uhhuh:


Business Studies makes me sleep, although the main contributor to my sleepiness is the teacher.
Example: (In Indian voice) "OK, turn to page 231 of the textbook, complete the sheet, and do the exercise. When you finish, go to next page and do more exersices." :D

Although she is a tragic teacher, I do love the way she marks. She awards answers that have filled up all the lines on the examination booklet full marks, no matter what you have written. For example, for a question worth 5 marks with 5 lines to fill, she will award 1 mark for every line written.

Oh thank god I found a place where I can rant about subjects I hate...
I hate English, Extension English and Physics! YAY!
English: General boringness. I'm sick of Poetry. I'm sick of Robert Browning and the discrepancies in his poems. I'm sick of hidden meanings in poems. I don't care about their meaning! Can't people just convey what they want in simple plain English?!
Ext. Eng: The classwork is good. The course is okay. The work, I 'detest, I abhor' etc etc.
Physics: No explanation needed there. I'm sick of studying about waves!!

Yes, i don't see why they need to take 3 terms to explain it. They could ahve covered it in 1 term, it would be so much more fun that way.

that would be complete stress for my physics teacher. We have lessons 3-4 times a week, and in those actual lessons we hardly learn anything. I'd feel so screwed if I was having him for my HSC :eek:
