    BOS MX2 Trials discussion thread.

    I just did Q15 and Q16 today. Had me scratching my head but after I understood what was being asked I got them out.

    What is so wrong with doing Standard English? EXPLAIN!

    Shakespeare is brilliant and you need to appreciate that. BRO. Anyhow, what people mean is that in standard, to get a mark that is equivalent to a mark in advanced you have to put in much more effort. Hence it isn't worth it.

    HSC over 2 years (Accumulated Units), do you think it's unfair?

    When I was in Year 11 I did accelerated chemistry at Tafe as well as all my preliminary subjects. No regrets, best decision of my schooling life.

    Bored of Studies Trial Discussion Thread.

    Good paper, I got stuck once or twice and only did a quick run through. Definitely the hardest 3 unit one I've seen, more like a pure harder 3 unit paper, a 4 unit kids worst nightmare.

    Scholarships

    Hey, so I am applying to a few scholarships at UNSW and just wanted to know what I should do to maximise my chances of getting one. Should I get heaps or references? Do I need a document to back up everything I say? Preferably, answer if you or somehow you know received a scholarship that wasn't...

    What do you want to do as a Doctor?

    What worries me is that a lot of people I see just go "OH I WANT TO BE A DOCTOR!" with no idea what that entails. This pisses me off, I have worked in a practice for years now and the fucking doctors are scammers, they do 15 minute consultations and write shitty reports to make the most amount...

    limiting series question.

    Okay, got this. So you can show the error is 2(\frac{1}{3^7*7} + \frac{1}{3^9*9} ...) Now it is evident the each term is less than the previous. With a little bit of justification, we can say that because of the decreasing size of each term in this error sequence the first time is a pretty...

    Please critique short story!

    It isn't bad writing... more bad style and content. Eventually they couldn’t continue any longer and the energy suddenly surged out of them rapidly, in an explosion of ecstasy. Bad sentence, you used they and then them. It is awkward in phrasing, also people don't get tired before orgasming if...

    my idea for creative piece

    ENDING: TURNS OUT THE OUTSIDE IS ACTUALLY A PRISON AND THE DUDE IS CRAZY. no but seriously, just have the guy like be restless or something but once he realises he is happy he sleeps well... I dunno. Suicide could be implied very carefully but endings can fuck up a good story.

    Please critique short story!

    SHOW DONT SAY. When she says I love you in the second paragraph, it could easily be replaced by "she pulled herself closer into his embrace in response". First sentence does not capture anyones attentions, the marker then decides whether or not this is "just another paper" or something with...

    abc conjecture proved?

    Pretty straight forward for n=3. Just factorise x^3 + y^3 + z^3... I think. We did it on tuesday in four unit.

    English is stupid

    Calm down, your fighting with someone on the internet. Go drink a glass of milk and then, once both of you guys have calmed down, come back and have a nice discussion.

    English is stupid

    I would argue that this is done because its hard to teach people to be smart and essentially, it is basically a step in determining ones own interpretation.

    Record of completing Q1-Q4 of any HSC trial

    4 unit integration is my favourite topic. I reckon integration by parts should be three unit, excluding recurrence formula

    English is stupid

    The belief that HSC english is developing ideas is misguided. It is about interpreting texts and ideas. I doubt a question has ever been asked on the english HSC that went along the lines of "According to a freudian/modernist/existentialist/whateverist interpretation of some text do blah", it...
