Also, keep in mind that if your performance is really close in all your subjects you don't HAVE to drop anything. I know a lot of people (myself included) who did 13 units for the HSC and did really well, so if you think you can handle it (i.e. were coping well during Term 4 last year) by all...

I've got a Stabilo Linear 808 F. It dries pretty much instantly, is super light and has a fine point which I personally like. Love ma pen! :D

Having seen the NQE, not sure if trolling...

So... who's gotten invited to this year's summer school? And as a side note, how did you find the NQE?

I knew it! Saw a post about the Olympiads where someone mentioned they were going for Bio and had a twin brother... :) How's uni?

The main thing I would advise is dropping down by at least 2 units to Year 12, a lot of my friends tried to pick...

Hi all, Just seeking advice regarding the suitability of some err... unique related text options for Ted Hughes' Birthday Letters. Specifically "Fulbright Scholars" as we only require one poem for upcoming assessment and it needs to be written this weekend. :( So anyway, what are your thoughts...

Or alternatively you can write: O + 2e ---> .502

I need some help because every English assessment I do whether it be a speech, hand-in, or in-class task I get 13/15. I was just wondering what i could do to move up into the high Band 6 range, because my teachers give me little to no commentary and the mandatory feedback I get for these tasks...

Is that you Calum?! o_O -Hannah

The school has to register you to sit the NQE (National Qualifying Exam) so you would want to talk to your Head of Science quickly to get that started. Then you take the NQE in I think August maybe... and whoever does the best in the country gets invited to the Olympiad summer school. Best of...
