    9/11 an inside job

    It concerns me that someone who is doing the subjects you do is unable to see the flaws of the 'evidence' you present. The bulk of it originates from people who are unbiased and have an extremist agenda. I suspect that you are seeing only the evidence that 'supports' the theory you want to...

    What to do when you receive your results

    Your school mark is merely a rank. A teacher can give his 3 students 95, 90 and 85 as "school marks" and if they then go and get 67, 65 and 60 in the exam then the "school marks" will be adjusted (to 60-67) to reflect their real performance. If your school mark was dropped down then it means...

    Help Quick Plz

    As goan_crazy said above Critically Analyse is a BoS Keyword - but you need to focus on the analyse part: "Identify components and the relationship between them; draw out and relate implications" Critically means you need to do the above very thoroughly. Many HSC markers have identified the...

    Computers Test?!?!

    Students will not be directly notified by the BoS as it was a trial test and your results are not official. If you want to know your results you will need to contact your school and they may or may not let you know in an unofficial capacity.

    COASTPD is the core part of Year 11 IPT. You would most likely find information about it in a Year 11 Text Book.

    Hospitality Notes

    If you test it out on SAM, Hospitality scales quite well relative to many subjects. Obvoiously it is not up there with the harder Maths and Sciences but it is one of the better ones.

    I Have no assessments for IPT

    I would direct your teacher to the IPT Syllabus that says: Project work in the HSC course is intended to give students an opportunity to plan, design and implement an information system that has a purpose. The chosen information system should be either: • a database information system • a...

    IPT Syllabus? + Texts

    The syllabus is simply a list of points they might test you on in the exam - how can you not think its important. Having used the heneman text book and seen questions in almost every past paper that werent covered by it and errors on occasion I switched to the Camridge text book which I found...

    IPT study syllabus

    I would be surprised if many of the 90+ brigade didnt focus on the syllabus. I would encourage you to throw your textbook away and just learnt each point listed in the syllabus from a range of sources. The language takes a little getting used to but if you take the time to use it as a study...

    The left hand column is knowledge you should have learnt while the right is skills you should have developed. The exam can test either column but it is easier and more likely they will test the left hand one. Generally the two are linked anyway. If you look at the right hand column some of...

    Bit/Baud Rate

    The BOS is primarily concerned that you understand the last paragraph in that tech post. That is they want you to realise that it is possible to send more than 1 bit in each signal change. If you do send 4 bits in each signal change the BPS will be 4x the baud rate. BPS= Bits per signal...
