    Belonging Related Texts

    At my school, our assessment tasks often say that we can't have two texts of the same form. While your school may not do the same, it's a good idea to get into the habit anyway. It also gives you a wider range of techniques (e.g. camera angles in film) so you aren't repeating tone, simile...

    how to stop making stupid mistakes

    I agree with Drongoski. It's important to know exactly what you define a silly mistake to be. But to answer your question,there isn't a guaranteed way to avoid silly mistakes. The best you can do is go back and check your stuff, really. The best instances to check more thoroughly are when you...

    g-forces

    I also second Hayzazz's advice. It would be good to know the simple effects like unconsciousness and death for short answer questions about the issues associated with safe re-entry, or even why a rocket is launched in stages.

    Calculus

    Calculus in year 11 is pretty simple and straightforward. Like harrisony said, "grab a textbook and off you go". Borrow one from the library or off a friend for the weekend and jot down or photocopy some stuff. If for some reason you feel you'd like to buy a textbook, I'd recommend going with...

    Related Texts - Films

    I took a photo of a page from my Excel study guide for you. I'd naturally avoid some on the list, since my English teacher continually reminds us that they are very opinionated against humour, cliched, shallowly popular and generally lacking in sophisticated substance texts. He also dropped...

    Who's doing The Great Gatsby and EBB?

    Just out of curiosity, who is doing The Great Gatsby and Elizabeth Barrett Browning's poems at their school? Three quarters of the forum seems to do Frankenstein and Blade Runner. We had a humourous uproar at our school when our teacher told us that they thought that we, being girls in an all...

    How do you listen to music?

    With my speakers when I'm at home, earphones when I'm out or feel like some quiet reading time at home.

    best read ever

    I've read pretty much all of Dan Brown's books. Digital Fortress was definitely a good read. His research into each subject really shows in his work. Deception Point was good too. I didn't like Angels and Demons that much, probably because I backtracked from Da Vinci Code and although they don't...

    Help with differentiating exponential functions

    Thanks Shadowdude! Wondering if there's supposed to be an e in the last question's solution though. Would it be 63e^-9x ?

    Help with differentiating exponential functions

    I'm doing some homework questions right now and am stumped because I'm confused by the basics (wasn't engaged with my thinking cap during class). So I'd really appreciate it if someone could answer these basic questions for me, showing all working out =) <!--[if !mso]> <style> v\:*...

    Speech pathology?

    Sounds pretty good. If I do end up setting my mind on speech pathology, I'll definitely check out the campus myself and ask around a lot. Thanks guys!

    Speech pathology?

    Since I can't view the old posts, just wanted to hear about speech pathology at USYD. I'm in year 12 right now and considering it. Is it a worthwhile course? What I'm most interested in is hearing about Cumberland. How is it? It feels shunted because of the Camperdown campus, so I'd like to hear...

    Questions about UMAT and USYD

    I'm going to sound pretty stupid, but here goes anyway XD I'm in year 12 right now and leaning towards health sciences. I was looking at some courses just then and it raised a few questions: 1) I know (well, think) UMAT is for med, dentistry and health sciences. But I'm a bit confused, since...
