    Re: Reading Time

    English- read essays and creative and work out what I was going to do. Leftover time spent on reading short answers. Phys/chem/Eco- flick through the paper to get an understanding of everything, make...

    Re: Co-op Scholarships

    I think for co-op at UNSW you need at least a 96 ATAR. Also you need to be competitive generally- so good academics, extracirriculars etc

    Re: Do year 11 ranks usually correlate?

    It depends. For mine they linked up almost exactly the same. You'll notice that the very top people tend to stay very top. There will however be a few people that suddenly start trying and do really...

    Re: Halp on Atar bruz

    Pretty sure that can't be right. I was =3rd at school in 4U and 2% off first. The top 4U mark was 98 and my assessment was 97. 4U aligns VERY favourably, I doubt you drop 3 marks if you're second by...

    Re: A new perspective on the atar?

    You should want to pay it. Cost is $20,000, and there is a direct benefit of the scientia scholarship as well as indirect benefits but ignore them. So benefit is (is engineering 4 or 5 years?). Lets...

    Re: A new perspective on the atar?

    99.95 is worth a lot more than $20,000. Firstly, you get a 10k/year scholarship so for a five year course, you have $50k there. Then also from a tutoring perspective, it is very easy to get students-...
  8. Re: Are The Teachers Realistic In Regards to Hours Per Night?

    Look guys this is all an individual thing and depends so much on a lot of factors. I know .95'ers who did less than 2 hours a night and got state ranks with that as well. I also know .95'ers who...

    Re: When is a function NOT differentiable?

    A straight line can be differentiated. Consider the line y=1. This is a horizontal line with constant gradient of 0. The derivative is a function of the gradient at any point on the curve- hence the...

    Re: When is a function NOT differentiable?

    When it is non-continuous (i.e. doesn't exist at that point). Like y=1/x at x=0. Also when things have like a sharp corner- technically when the limit of the gradient is different when you approach...

    I'm doing commerce/law- I'm just first year but I enjoy it a lot - though I've always loved economics.

    What sort of things are you interested in?

    And I want to go into either criminal or...

    Re: Help With Some ECON1101 Questions

    Total rubbish collected will go down. This is because households now have an incentive to reduce the amount of rubbish they put out.

    From a cost benefit point of view, look at it like this- under...
  18. Re: Do different prescribed text options scale differently?

    The idea behind text scaling is that the question will suit some texts more than others- hence they will get higher marks- hence scaling to equalise the process. Hamlet doesn't always scale higher...

    It doesn't really make much difference if you look from a purely statistical point of view. I know quite a few people who got 99.95- out of those, its pretty evenly split between those who did 10...

    Re: Economies of Scale

    It is difficult for new telecommunications companies to start up as companies like Telstra have achieved economies of scale that allow them to undercut many new entrants into the market.

    Re: Is my physics exam unfair?

    I don't agree with what the teacher did- there is a place for some HSC questions but the test shouldn't be comprised mainly of them and if you have to take past papers, you should do earlier papers...

    Re: Rankings to get 99+

    Hahaha I would defs say no where near that. I'm assuming you guys have like what? 30 99+'s a year? So say around top 40 in each sub? Maybe someone that's been to a top rank school can provide more...
