    Heellpppppp!

    Yes 30% of Prelim MATHS ONLY can be tested in HSC. This applies to all the maths courses (general, mathematics and ext 1) Other subjects test prelim skills (which are needed for the HSC course but not the content.

    Lockers

    Our school has never had lockers so I have never found a need for one. However it is inconvenient having to carry around 5 or 6 textbooks everyday, you get used to it though

    Ext Subjects Outside of School Hrs - MAX hrs to be at school

    Wow! and I though being at school from 8 - 4.10 was bad. I am soooooo glad I don't have 7.30 classes I think I would die! I think one of the reasons our school would never make them that early is lots of the students come from smaller towns 20mins - half an hours drive away, so it would...

    EXT 1 Assessment Tasks

    Our first assessment was on: Parametric Representation Harder Curve Sketching Interactive methods of approximating roots and Induction The teacher made it really really long, just to see if anyone could finish it and no one could. I think I could have done almost every question but...

    Math Ext 1 problems, what to do?

    I think cirlce geometry is one of the hardest things in ext 1 yr 11, so don't worry about it. I still have problems with it and I am the best maths student in my class. My advice - practice lots, it really will help

    Going overseas in year 11?

    I did go overseas when I was in yr 11, for the last week of term 2 and first week of the winter holidays. I went to Indonesia to do an intensive language course to help with my accelerated Indonesian studies. I don't regret it, it was a fantastic experience. My yr 11 work was just about...

    How well did u go for first HSC assessments?

    It really depends how hard your assessment was. I topped my class for ext 1 and got only 74%. Our teacher said he made the test really hard to challenge us, and he sure did challenge us, the biggest problem was not having enough time, I knew most of the content but there wasn't enough time to...

    Physic and Ext 2

    Well I'm glad to know that there are other physics haters out there too haha! I have nothing against people who do physics though, a lot of my friends do, perhaps they will have to help me if I need to understand a physics based concept for maths. And I have seemed to grasp most maths...

    Physic and Ext 2

    I am studying 4 units of maths this term, we have only done complex numbers so far and while it is harder than 3 unit for sure, I have coped with it very well. However, my teacher and other people say the 4 unit goes on to relate to physics alot. This worries me as I don't do physics and...

    4U maths destroys confidence

    ooh wow another amazing maths accelerated student!!!!! One guy in my year did that last year and he got a band 6 for ext 1 and 2! You should really be proud of your committment, I did accelerated Indonesian last year and it was alot of work to put in and hard to balance with year 11, but it was...

    Should i drop Physics?

    I have a friend that wants to drop physics and keep drama. He wants to get into optomitry (don't know how to spell it but you know what i mean - the person that gives you glasses) so he needs a pretty high UAI. He is more than capeable of doing very well at physics but he finds it boring. He...

    does ANYBODY enjoy their text for english?

    We're doing Ender's Game for English... I didn't like it. It seems most people in my class did, but then again most of my friends are males and are into sci-fi and I am not interesting in this genre at all. Mind you, our english teacher picks the shittest books ever so Ender's Game wasn't...

    4U maths destroys confidence

    I'm doing 4U maths this year, my dad didn't want me to do it, he used to be a maths teacher and said I would kill my self doing it for not enough gain. However so far I am finding it satisfying and although it is definately tough I wouldn't have it any other way. Is any other class out there...

    What do they do when the cd skips? I thought the exam was ok. would have liked a choice of text type for writing though. Over all not too bad. Are there any other open high school students here there probably are it would be nice to know you if you were in my class

    Indonesian Continuers

    Hmmm yes i agree that the reading was terribly different to translate and my dictionaries did let me down especially in question 10. Thought the listening was good and part B in reading and responding was great. lots to say and easy to understand that passage at least. I didnt like the fact...
