Hmm sounds interesting. I want to partially immerse myself in japanese by having alot of japanese friends and going to shops speaking only japanese for a day etc. Although it would take me at least a year to speak it at an intermediate level, I presume.
With your Batchelor of International...
I'm not him, but I'm curious on how it will, on average affect my Employability in a field related to international law such as by an official international body like the UN, or in diplomacy or international business. Whether this degree is highly regarded domestically and internationally or...
With that kind of arrogance you can pole vault to the moon using just a solidified version of your ego. Why waste time getting an atar like us mortals?
haha, keep it as it was so I can remember this moment.
To not burn to early. Focus on your social life and hobbys, they are as necesary for your future as your academic ability. Do well for confidence, but don't even study more than 1 hour a day, start doing a decent amount in year eleven and...
The arrogance is in the fact that you would be 'happy' with 1.25 smaller than the highest possible atar. As in that's something easily achieved and only acceptable.
There's some sense in your waffle there. Everyone can go good in tests but not everyone can get a good ranking, as its merely an indicator of how well you did over other people.
That's just the competitive nature of society, and in your early years something as meager as test and assesment...
Well I did terribly until year 12 and I'm glad I was lazy in earlier years as they meant nothing, and contributing nothing towards my future as the tests I'm undergoing now will. Focus on your hobbies, social life and perhaps your study, but not necessarily what the school sets for you, find a...
Strictly speaking Talent is unattainable if you lack it at birth. Skill is gained with practice.
But only too true. 40 minutes makes even talented students stress out or work very hard to write a good response. I had no pre-prepared bodies or introductions or anything for any of my essays...
Module C: Rep and Text ( History and Memory) Was my worst. Mainly because I didn't finish reading, nor particularly enjoy studying the Fiftieth Gate. Way too much Holocaust literature since yr 6.
B: Hamlet was actually enjoyable because I liked studying it and enjoyed understanding it on a...
Do they include any comments on your answer, or where you earnt the marks?
Also it would be pretty nice to get the paper back. To be impressed or look back in disgust at your writing ability in a few years time.
Hamlet this year was the first to contain a massive quote and ask you to relate your text to the themes shown in the ending.
Actually, I found about 1 minute to flick through the book during the reading time.. Alot of Mod b had big quotes provided.
I haven't gotten my results back yet, but I think I did alright. Mine was on American foreign policy in relation to post-war Japan and the military invasion of Afghanistan, comparing and contrasting the failures of American foreign policy between the American-led occupations.
How did...
All social science subjects heavily rely on the syllabus, so if you're going to do any of the histories, or legal studies, economics or business studies etc. The syllabus is your guide to the entire course. So if you don't know any of the dot points or can't write a few paragraphs or go on a...
so if my internal mark isn't too bad in relation to the rest of my year I'd be alright because of ranking?
That's not bad then, then I guess the HSC itself is just in relation to everyone else, so you can still get 96 atar even if you only got 89% for everything and most people got below that...
