    Usyd/unsw?

    if you want to do criminology then you should consider a career that isn't in education. i don't see how the two are relevant to each other. but yeah universities will offer novelty subjects to market themselves

    Conflict in the Pacific

    you should've planned your study around the syllabus, if it's too broad, it's because you might be covering stuff which you think is part of the course, but really isn't. just my two cents

    Any predictions on what the Germany HSC question might entail?

    there has always been two questions, at least if we're going by trends. One on the Weimar period, and then one on the NSDAP period, from 1933 onwards.

    Bright students 'betrayed' by HSC

    well obviously you didn't read the article completely, and you have had no background reading regarding this issue. It has been floating around with the lesser known universities and the private colleges, the idea that the UAI is not the sole indicator of university entry. The system...

    Bright students 'betrayed' by HSC

    I read this in the smh, and capitalization was fine. What on earth happened? "since universities began hand-picking some students on the basis of measures other than the uai." that's the way to go. but LOL at the Ruse principal defending the HSC. I really can't see her saying anything...

    Any Wests Tigers fans?

    guess who has the shit coach now? well i mean he just left, but after defecating all over the Knights in the past month Benji on the 7 has been a big mistake. It's a shame Gallant is injured and that Moltzen has had to go back to fullback as he's been doing quite well as halfback. I wonder...

    why Madsen Building

    Yep.. last sem 2 I was unlucky enough to have to line up to get the timetable I wanted. It's a quick procedure, it's just the lines that can be a bit long. I went in last year when it was raining a bit when the lines were shorter. This time I'm lucky enough to get a balance timetable with...

    3 hours in Bosch sem 1 Monday 2-4pm Ancient Imperialism, then 4-5pm repeat Educational Psychology lecture. Beats having to go back and forth to that hole I suppose.

    Germany - where are you getting your notes from??

    No offense to the earlier posts, but I would suggest to use various sources regarding any historical topic simply for the fact that you need to cross reference.

    New HSC Modern History Structure?

    when I did the first page of the exam, the World War I options... to be honest it was a farce wherein I did it inside a minute. Placing less emphasis on the extended responses is actually a good thing - from my amateur educational opinion anyway

    The 2009 Trial HSC for History Ext

    it's not the bible/torah/koran... but it is good to know about 2-3 historians there for reference. studying for history extension is simple: know a lot of historians, and their ways of writing history then write about it. Name dropping has never been so crucial
