i like how the prelim course just brings everything that you've learned into a nice cohesive bundle; after discovering that i'm actually not shit at maths, i really regret not doing 3U. it's difficult to discern whether you're good at a subject like english because a fair percentage of it can be...

to everyone:
how does your school structure the exam timetable? does it spread it over a couple of weeks or cram it all into one?
i ask this because as my school did the former, i seriously wonder why they kept us at school for another week to do sweet fuck all while other schools are still in...
the teachers should really stop spoonfeeding us. it's cramping any possible style we may have, then it makes us dependent on them for every single thing.
ew. vicious cycle.
that said, it's only prelim and should a learning curve. autodidacticism ftw.
i remember the prospect of being the only girl in woodwork in year 9-10.
but other than that, i go to an all-girls school now, so needless to say there's not a very industrial arts bent here.

Re: Query about Student Record at School
well if you're there you're there and the suspension is on your record and the other school probably knows then. as long as it was for something small i don't think it'll particularly matter, because schools are generally lenient towards students who...
Re: Query about Student Record at School
they probably don't have access to the records of other schools, but they'd probably want to look at the reasons why you'd want to enrol, esp. during an interview.
where do you want to get into exactly? the system differs a fair bit between...

Re: Query about Student Record at School
pretty much yeah. but it probably depends on how long it's been since you've done anything particularly bad. i had been suspended in year 7 and had countless afteschool detentions and quite a few disciplinary problems until i moved in early year 9. i...
maths. there's something, i daresay, pleasant about calculus.
my heritage is beginning to rear its head.
i didn't even like this stuff a month ago. wtf.
If you prick us, do we not bleed? if you tickle us, do we not laugh? if you poison us, do we not die? and if you wrong us, shall we not revenge?

The financial market is a conduit through which surplus funds can be exchanged for financial products, and in turn be directed into deficit funds. This process serves to connect savers/lenders and investors/borrowers – unaided by financial intermediaries with the proper expertise, the average...
