    how hot does it have to be for us to go home?

    As Klitzy said, there isn't a set rule but comes under OH&S. The principal also has to think of if it will be more dangerous to send you home unsupervised.

    Acceleration and policies?

    No you don't but you seem to be hitting the wall the head teacher isn't willing to sign off unless there is a supervised program. It sounds like you and your parents should approach the principal about a formalized extension program for the rest of your time at the school.

    Acceleration and policies?

    To enroll you into the HSC course, the principal has to sign off that you have met the preliminary requirements or the equivalent. That is the paperwork that they would be worried about. A possibility that could be discussed with the Head teacher for next year, is if you finish the preliminary...

    Real exam marks?

    The cohort has no effect on the aligning. It is the difficulty and and marking structure of the exam that determines the aligning.

    Clerical Recheck- Chance of Worse Mark??

    Its more expensive because there are two lots of papers involved. They don't reemploy markers. Any anomalies within your school would have been targeted and remarked already to check.

    Clerical Recheck- Chance of Worse Mark??

    Only long mark questions are double marked, eg Essays in History and English. Short answer like all the sciences are check marked. This could means anything from 1 in 4 to 1 in 25 are double marked. This makes no difference in the clerical check only checks if the recorded marks are the same as...

    The first position is pegged. So no they will not provide you with an moderated assessment above the highest external.

    2008 Hsc

    The Dot point was changed for last years HSC, to clarify the question asked in the 2004 paper, which didn't really fit under the old DP. They reintroduced the old DP from the 2002 syllabus. ne thing they haven't asked about is the Space Scientists. Sooner or later it will come up

    Link is that he took Plank's idea and applied it to light. This meant it wasn't a property of the blackbody producing quantised eneergy amounts but it was a property of the energy that meant it had to be emitted in quanta. He gave a physical meaning to the quanta being emitted by the black body.
