Sometimes I feel too tired to sleep.

I slept at 12 and woke up at 5 for my latest assessment, that was the least number of sleep I had this term

Not bad. I think I all nightered one of my assessments in term 4 - I got lucky when I got my mark back and NEVER (EVER!) all nightered again. I learnt my lesson haha.

That was my standard exam prep- cram until midnight, sleep until five, wake up at five and lightly go over the course and watch pump up videos

Anyone here play XBL? just out of curiosity...

I would've gotten a 19 if I didn't describe so much when it came to cases. I did rectify this in my original essay since everyone that pretty much saw it told me to fix it up but when I wrote it in class, I accidently described too much in one case! Thus it moved me from a 'integrates cases and relevant legislation into the response...' (5/5) to a 'uses cases into response and relevant legislation...' (4/5) part of the criteria. Then I got 4/5 in another part of the criteria about selecting legal information (or something to the effect of that) which no one got 5 for.

Re: The p00n thread

As long as you're 100% sure of this decision, then that's fine Not the best analogy but I topped french in year 10 and ended up choosing that subject for year 11 purely because of that reason. I had little interest/motivation in it so needless to say, everything went downhill from there to say the least haha.

It's all up to you in the end, although technically you start 4U in year 12 so there still time to change your mind Your new school has a beast maths cohort in both 3U/4U anyway.

Their school topped ICAS maths for years 9, 10, and 12...

But not 11! awwwwww yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I still don't know what ICAS maths is...

Re: The p00n thread

Its like the AMC maths competition but run by UNSW- not sure which comp is bigger. Our school pretty much just does AMC- not sure what others do. AMC is more problem solving though

 

[RealiseNothing]

ICAS is much closer to HSC syllabus maths, whereas AMC is more problem solving.

 

[Kurosaki]

Realize u do that national maths summer school at ANU?

Re: The p00n thread

Sure do, why?

What's it like? Thinking of mayb changing Eco for legal. Still undecided. Which ones better in your opinion? You should probably move this to another thread? Don't want a mod to hunt me down

Personally, I think economics is the better subject overall. Legal can be pretty boring and it is becoming a very robotic kind of subject. I found economics to be a lot more interesting. Although I will say, legal studies does have a lot of potential with a few syllabus changes.

Also, a law degree and legal studies are quite different. Legal is more about the policy behind the law and assessing the effectiveness of the legal system, whilst in a law degree, you focus more on black letter law (i.e. what the law is for certain things).

 

[Kurosaki]

Mm thanks I guess I'll stick with Eco then. Law degrees seem dry
