    Best Open Day

    I only planned to visit UNSW and UTS but my friends also wanted to go to Usyd. So my day: UNSW: spent way too long there. One reason not to go there solely on the number of stairs there lol. Lectures were a bit boring. Esp. the Arts one, when technologies weren't their best. I didn't know...

    is anyone in yr11 doing dance???

    Wow! That's so strange, I was always under the impression that Newtown PA were one of the best schools in dance, looking at last year's list. So I can't wait to watch CallBack next year to see the performances.

    is anyone in yr11 doing dance???

    I'm Majoring in Performance. My teacher says it's easier to get good marks in for my abilities and my workload. I love watching Compositions though, they are amazing. Can't wait to go to CallBack next year! Is it just me or did I not see any newtown girls in this years top marks in dance HSC...

    Welcome Class of 2007

    Yay for new forum! Feels so weird leaving the prelim one though. It's scary to think that our HSC is going to come 'just like that'. I remember my maths teacher on wednesday handing out a maths timetable to us with what we have to cover on what days, and he was counting down the weeks we have...

    Senior Science / Physics.

    Oh and I'm in the same position as you are with the whole backup thing. I wanted to pickup Senior Science so I can have a backup for Dance which I think is hard to beat the Newtown peeps but I'll still try. And I didn't want to do Ext 2 Maths because I like my Mathematics and Ext 1.

    Senior Science / Physics.

    Well if you are ready for the long story I'm about to tell you, bare with me. Many teachers 'care' about what mark I will get in my HSC and they focussed on what subjects will help me get it. I just changed my Siggy. As you can see, I was carrying 14U in Prelim, it was ok I suppose but having...

    Senior Science / Physics.

    Atm I'm going through the process of all this subject selections and I reckon nearly every teacher has seen me about it with different opinions. Really you should check with your teachers. I think you should do 12 units and not 14, unless you think you can cope along with your other subjects. I...

I cant drop health because the teachers hate me for dropping so I'm scared of them... lol but we have to stay in class for about 2 or 3 weeks. Health-went through some of exam, dance - tried to make movements up...

    What electives do/did you do in yrs9/10?

    In Year 9 and 10, we could only choose 2 electives, in the perivous years it use to be 3 but 2 was busy enough. I chosed Visual Arts and Dance. Both had their ups and downs. Senior dance is way better now.

    hardcore subjects

    You're so lucky that you get to do all three sciences. Our school Physics and Bio run at the same time, which sucks to us Science Nerds... Bridging course for Physics here I come [in 2008].

    Help!!.. any advise

    The problem with me is that I really dislike health [but I'm going to keep it for a little while and see if the teaching patterns change] but my teachers strongly advise in me keeping it and dropping dance. But, i love dance, their reason is that it'll bring my marks down [ok, so it'll be hard...

    yearly feedbacks- mark and rank

    We did our exams the last 2 weeks of term so theachers wouldn't have had any time to mark them. My bio techer told me that I was doing well in the exam. So i'm not too scared of getting that back. Chem was a little hard. Maths and Ext 1 were really easy except sir stuffed up some of the...
