I think one parent loosing income would be considered if: -Other parent is also unemployed -Other parent is low income earner/on pension (such as disability support pension) -Parents are separated/estranged and you receive little/no financial support If the loss of one parents income...

Oh really? The news pronounced them super white-ly. They also called them white males. Oh well, my apologies :P

Police have announced the two suspects from the bombings were the same involved in the MIT shootings. One of the suspect (dark hatted dude) is dead, the other male is on the run. Appears from the names that were released that both are white, american males. Sadly, as soloooooo said, it appears...

Uh. Upfront discount has gone from 20% to nothing in just two years. I don't understand this. A discount is an incentive for income now, not possibly getting income in 5 years if they reach the threshold. Might as well just force everybody on HECS because there is no real incentive now...

I'm a fan of paper books. Electronics burn my eyes if I stare for too long, but I can read books all day without them hurting. I guess I also like the whole nostalgia and feel of book and paper in general. I bought a laptop when I started uni, but I only use it for assignments because I just...

If you click on the link I gave you, and then choose Accredited Tertiary Courses 2013 (pdf, 268KB) (chose whatever year you began your degree, and if you haven't yet I'd pick the most current option) If you go down to the Queensland/JCU page it lists what courses that whatever university offers...

Bonus points are not determined by school (unless you go to an academically disadvantaged school) If you live in Girraween, you'd be able to receive the 5 bonus points. You can check here http://www.uws.edu.au/informationabout/tripleadvantage/regionalbonus to see if where you live is able to...

Stick with 2 unit. I did almost identical subjects to you and general maths brought my atar down a lot because it doesn't scale well, and standard English doesn't either. Spend your time improving your current knowledge, it isn't too late. The general maths course is not a simplified version...

Your GPA is awarded based on your final grade. This will affect your final grade as it was worth 20%. However, you say you've been achieving over 80% and (i presume) you still have a final exam weighting ~50%. Do well in your future assessments, and it won't impact you too drastically. Try...
