yeah 11 & 12 is optional and isnt a form of childcare. If my [hypothetical] kids said they didn't want to go to school in year 11 & 12, they would be out earning money with a job, and they would be charged rent. Or they would be at tafe getting a workplace skill based on an interest of theirs...

i can see the OPs post becoming part of a "failure" poster

the problem is that the "pen pusher" receptionist probably got 100 emails on the same subject, and just pasted the standard reply. try the anu admissions office? (or is that what "general inquiry" was?) You might need to pm khing when he comes online. I think he did his A levels...

so you mean the machine wont recognise my felt tip pen? lol

yeah, they get an education up to the point of SC. If they're not smart, and have no intention to learn - why should they be at school? Most people take for granted what they have, when they realise low end jobs are shit, they're very keen to go back to study. Hence why it is very easy to get...

I only partly agree, if you're not forced to go into years 11-12 (but you want to go) then you're probably more likely to succeed. However, if you're going into years 11-12 because your mates are, or you dont like the idea of working then its probably not really going to be an incentive to do...

lol - i cant believe it! you're at U-syd! call the subject ccordinator and tell them your problem - usually they find the blank paper and they will write your number on.. However next time just speak to the exam coordinator at the time and dont leave the hall till its sorted.

yeah, thats why we have compulsory education up to year 10. There is too much emphasis on compelting year 12, particularly for "low end" blue collar jobs. An extra 2 years of education is un-necessary and essentially 2 years of on-the-job training would be far more effective. PS - 1400th post :D

if you are bad at both then you probably shouldnt be doing an hsc.

http://www.google.com.au/search?q=bachelor+of+social+work&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official&client=firefox-a theres 8 different nsw uni's on the first page that have that degree.

ground keepers need to know how many square meters an oval is so they can buy just enough cans to completly spray the oval in pesticide.

they shouldn't be doing the hsc in the first place.

clever! yeah you can get basic USB-ubuntu prgrams off the internet. Just the comp has to be able to USB boot (most new comps can do this though), otherwise just use a linux cd and go from there.

You may be able to do this - im not sure if it will work with vista. When my laptop died, we pulled out the hard drive, put it into an enclosure and booted it on another computer (that had admin rights). We then copied all the files off it and then reformatted it so it was an external hard...

lol if thats the case i would write the manager a bill for the time accumulated by customers who refused to leave the store. ------------- I work(ed) in liquor, the closing time is the law, after that time (if customers refused to leave i'd tell them i'm calling the police). This is my order...

hmmm i had the shitest job ever, i didnt get paid past closing time etc etc. but i needed a job, and i knew i was easily replaceable (3 ppl came in a week asking if we had jobs - with a small store of 5 staff). shite job > no job.

hahaha agreed - i would have had the computer formatted after 2 days.

ffs how can you forget the password. stupid people.

ebay, vodafone.com.au, telstra.com.au etc etc

Also: if you had a router, you could easily block all outgoing traffic/the port.
