    How many times have you read through your texts for english?

    Skrznecki- a few times Frankenstein- twice Bladerunner- twice Hamlet- once in the actual version and once in the No Fear Shakespeare. I've seen two film adaptations as well Justice Game- Trials/Michael X twice, everything else once

    Hardest 3&4 unit paper in which year?

    Moriah 2001 is overrated imo- like its quite hard but its not impossibly difficult. Sydney Boys 2002 is an absolute killer though I think

    Study for worst subject or not?

    If it definitely won't count (like you are doing HEAPS better in other subs and you don't understand bio) then stuff it imo. Cram the night before for it but ultimately only your top ten units count

    Is it alright(good) to have critics in Module B HAMLET (with the new updated syllabus

    Re: My english essays are 1000 words each will I be marked down???? You can prepare an essay for Mod B (srs). I did it for our Hamlet assessment and for the trials and got 14/15 and 20/20 respectively. The point is though to make sure you also know the whole play so if they chuck a shocker at...

    Problem with Philips Curve

    The Phillips Curve is really just an empirical observation- in fact Australian experience tends to suggest that the Australian economy doesn't really fit the layout of the Phillips Curve (note also stuff like in the 70/80's where both inflation and unemployment was high). As for reasons, you...

    How much would a raw mark of 90 for Chem be scaled up to?

    It does take internal into account. Its possible that everyone else in that graphics class also did well so his internal was good and with a great external, it pulled him into state rank.

    How much would a raw mark of 90 for Chem be scaled up to?

    HSC mark does not mean raw mark- its the aligned mark. For example, if you got 90/100 in chem, that would probs be 96 HSC so you enter that. And theoretically its possible to state rank but I can guarantee it won't happen. Your internal will be no where near high enough because you're not first...

    How much would a raw mark of 90 for Chem be scaled up to?

    State rank is HSC mark- so the average of assessment mark and exam mark

    multiple choice help

    The only two answers could be B or D. B will obviously lead to a direct increase in foreign debt so that's wrong. D just leads to an increase in government net debt but preserves external stability. You are overthinking the impact of the crowding out effect. Even if you take that line of...

    Marking: all online?

    Chem still isn't- I know that much. I heard that business is being scanned this year but I still think most papers are in hard copy

    Graph

    Test points is how I'd do it. Like where x equals infinity on f(x), then thats the same as x=0 on f(1/x) etc. if that makes sense?

    Year 12 2012 Chit Chat Thread

    If it works for you, then stick with it. For what its worth, the top people in our grade in phys and chem don't write their own notes but you could argue that this is correlation rather than causation (i.e. people with better memories don't need to write own notes + would do better anyway). But...
