Hello Everyone.

Basically, I just wanted to make a thread for year 12 students who will be doing Earth and Environmental Science in 2009.

I did Earth Science for my HSC this year and it was my best subject. I got a mark of 90 (Band 6) for Earth in my HSC. My mark in Earth Science enabled me to get a pretty good UAI.

So yeah if any of the 2009 students have any questions related to Earth Science, just post here and I will try and get back to you. Also if you need any help with this subject, just PM and I will try and get back to you as soon as possible.

Other than that, any Earth student can basically just post here to discuss things related to Earth Science / Year 12 / School.

Cheers.

Sorry dude but all my textbooks for earth was lent to me by the school. I'm pretty sure you can easily get the brand new copy of this book in the major bookstores.

But yeh

grame093 · 24 Jan 2009, 11:22 AM

Well hey I think I know that! But it's a 2002 edition, someone may like to sell theirs!

Hey.

I also did EES in 2008 and got good mark (93). It scaled up my UAI loads.

What I came on here to share was this website that my EES teacher showed our class. It is seriously the best. I used these forum things before but never posted - but this was just to helpful not to show everyone. SO here is the link http://angelfire.com/sc2/ees

Have fun.

Good link faultline, although it only really covered the tectonic impacts topic...

I have sum pretty good resources/links for earth, will post it here when I cbb to find them.

Cheers.

Woo! I'm a nooby! EES is the BEST subject...then Biology. It's just so interesting and such good knowledge, maybe not for everyday stuff but to showoff to people

Yeah, I'm Year 11 and not gonna drop it....EVER. Great link as well

Another earth and environmental science student here

what's with the lack of community/threads?

Surely this subject can't be that uncommon

Sprattboy · 28 Mar 2009, 2:27 PM

From what i can gather it is pretty uncommon. Not alot of teachers can teach it .

I know we are one of the only schools in my area that is teaching it, due to the fact the have a science teacher that can teach it.

Hey everyone. First post! I also do Earth and Environmental (year 12) and have been really put off by it due to having a very uninterested teacher. After reading some of these posts I must say I gained a little bit more confidence, previously I have been thinking it wont do my HSC mark any good? Is this right or wrong?..what does a high mark in E&E equate to in other subjects?

hi there,

tbh, i think the subject scales well if you do good in it

getting 85+ in earth would scale well, just like in most subjects

hi,

yeah as someone said, not a lot of people do the subject

i think last year, less than 2000 students in nsw did it for the hsc.

but its a pretty cool subject, much more interesting than most of the other sciences i think.

It's Earthies or EES, nothing else. Represent.
