    what TYPE of school do u go to?

    Re: Public School vs. Private Horrible in which way? I know a number of public school students who are working incredibly hard so as to have the chance to offer their children the opportunities they themselves were never provided with. It's a perfectly valid point. I understand that not all...

    Is 99.5+ an unrealistic aim for me?

    Study inside of school = compulsory in class revision. When I think study I think self-motivated, sit down, serious syllabus dot pointing stuff, but then I realised others might include classwork as study so figured I should clarify. I always do what's required in class but nothing at home :)

    what TYPE of school do u go to?

    Re: Public School vs. Private Totally agree. As a private school attendee and lover, I can honestly say pretty much every student in my grade knows they can just fall back on the family money. There aren't the same pressures that a student in a public school may face if they're trying to...

    Is 99.5+ an unrealistic aim for me?

    LOL wow, in your case your SC results don't reflect your internal ranks at all! Yeah, SC means nothing. Nah I'd believe him easy. Cause he said his friend hardly studied, meaning he studied at least a little. And I know that I got: Maths 93 Science 97 English 95 Geography 96 History...

    Best place you've been?

    No; I too have been to Los Angeles and never wanted to leave. It just depends on what you do there, and who you're with. Honestly, as incredibly cliche as it is, Disneyland LA is the best place I've ever been. Without a doubt. But San Francisco is my favourite international city...

    Is 99.5+ an unrealistic aim for me?

    Do you honestly think that you nailed the SC? Is that what you're saying? Cause I didn't study one bit, and yet my results were higher than yours :| But irrespective, SC doesn't reflect the HSC because let's face it, it's possible to ace the SC without study, and yet even a satisfactory UAI...

    Is it okay to bug teachers?

    Agree. If you know what you're asking is relevant, but thus far unanswered, go ahead and ask in class. That's not something I'd classify as bugging. But if you go off onto a completely unrelated tangent, and persist even once it has been dismissed, that's when you're crossing the line...

    short story, marks and suggested improvements please!

    You should always have a title. That's just basic. But you should never have to end your story with 'the end.' If your piece is well written enough, a marker will be able to recognised the end for themself. Shirley’s bullying forced Edna back to Merrydale High.... I'd make it clearer that...

    As a student who has been privately educated since Kindergarten, I not only think I'm better than public school students, but know I am.
