    General Thoughts - Mathematics

    Difference between ADH and Aldosterone

    increased aldosterone is triggered by both low sodium and high potassium, and its release causes more sodium to be reabsorbed into the blood, and therefore more water by osmosis, = higher blood pressure and vice versa, high levels of sodium/low pottasium in the blood reduces the release of...

    Unfair disadvantage: 'Gorbachev' directly inferred in Cold War question.

    yeah they were both pretty easy! i have no idea why any modern class would choose a personality that didnt link to another of their topics!! although.. i guess some are linked to national studies? i guess we could have done speer or leni whatsername.. haha nevermind. im just glad its over :) &...

    General Thoughts - Modern History

    what did people say about c and d? i made some generalisations about c being reliable due to not really looking staged/they looked geninunely enthusiastic, and that d was useful because it put forth both german and british views from befroe and after war, but didnt take into account those that...

    Unfair disadvantage: 'Gorbachev' directly inferred in Cold War question.

    haha yeah but wooz, clearly doing both advantaged us so why are you complaining? i just wish i studied harder, it would have been such an easy test! and there is a 'soviet attitudes under gorbachev' part of the cold war syllabus, so technically theyre not asking something thats not from the syllabus

    if you come first

    lol.. apparently they ring you up the day before the results come out to let you know, and you go to an awards night/dinner thing to get the certificate, i doubt you get prize money. but it would probably pick you up a scholarship or two

    Section 3

    you're forgetting that this is the exam that ranks standard against advanced! of course its going to be generic i wrote 1 book plus a page and a bit, i was able to use all the points from the essay i wrote beforehand, & wrote the words 'unexpected' 'destination' and 'journey' about a million...

    i just spoke to a modern history guy, he told me to ring back tomorrow if i had a prac essay i wanted to run by him.. but seeing as i dont know his name, that might be a bit hard! he was helpful though. i now know why hitler got appointed chancellor :)

    MacFarlane Burnet etc

    well its not actually a point in the syllabus, just a heading.. so i guess aslong as you know that he was involved in studying the immune system, then you can rule 'burnet' out of a mutliguess question along the lines of 'which scientists did etc.' he was an aussie, and won a nobel prize in...

    help me make up my mind?

    probably. but with liberal studies i get to decide on my arts major, and i get to decide on a science major (thus the it being 'better than straight arts' in my thinking, cause i can do science stuff aswell- i.e psychology.) i guess thats the problem: i have no idea what its going to be like...

    help me make up my mind?

    Sold. Yeah I'd rather do liberal studies than straight arts, cause arts seems like its a bit pointless... (especially when I'm not the worlds biggest artsy subject fan.. and the 'picking things that I like so I'll be good at them' theory doesnt seem to apply to me, because I can pretty much...
