I dropped a 95 in maths for an 87 in ext2 and dont regret it. I could have easily done better though.

Boris you sort of answered your own question in why Hamas rejected the cease fire. "Israel may be morally wrong". Hamas want moral superiority over the Israelis so that they can gain international support and eventually reclaim their land and hence it is in their interest to suffer. Which sounds...

Militarily they cannot defeat them Iron. But no-one thought that an old guy wearing hand woven cloth could drive Britain from India non-violently but it happened. As I said before their strategy for reclaiming their land is to claim international backing and the moral high ground (as...

In Islam they are taught that oppression is a greater sin than killing. That is the Quaran teaches that an oppressed people can legitemately use force against their oppressors. Thats my explanation of their actions which I can't personally justify. The reality is whether you take the Mandela...

Well Sam it is logical if they make it appear that Israel is bombing Mosques and schools, women and children - that would ruin Israels international standing and legitmacy and eventually lead to the Palestinians having the weight of global support. They will do what they need to do to be freed -...

But on the opposite of that Sam, Hamas are deliberately using mosques and schools as cover. Neither are doing anything ethical.

It goes back further than the aid block really. The palestinians were denied what was their rightful land and from then on have been oppressed (not genocide). Iron its ludicrous to accuse anyone who is against the actions of Israel of being for the actions of Hamas. Neither side is being...

Just because one side is wrong it doesn't make the other side right iron.

Thats so simplistic. You have not even considered why the Palestinians were firing rockets in the first place. Its not for shits and giggles or for some arbitrary hatred of Jews - they feel oppressed. Hamas are terrorists but their election emphasises how desperate the Palestinians are. I can...

Re: do you believe in the existence of Extraterrestrial life outside planet earth? pedantic much?

I saw somewhere the analogy of a crazed man screaming at your door threatening to come in and kill you. Of course in that situation you would want a police response not equal in force (one cop) but everything the police had available. That sounds reasonable. But when they get there and find...

General rule: half your age plus seven for men (from 18 onwards). eg 18:16 22:18 30:22 40:27 60:37

Regarding the job prospects for graduates... Historically speaking only USyd has produced High Court Justices but that is more to do with it being the oldest Law School - any High Cort Justice would have completed their degree at least 40 years when UNSW may well have been inferior since it was...

Coming first internally isn't neccesarily important. One of my friends, Anna who came first in PE in the state, was ranked second in our year (behind my girlfriend) who came twelf in the state despite having an exam mark of 96. On EE2, although obviously they have to be compared by...

Sarah that is exactly what I did. I got 95 in maths in 2007 and 46/50 in ext1. In 2008 I did ext2 maths which meant the 95 didn't count, my ext1 mark was doubled to 92 and my ext2 mark counted. It is the same as if I had re-attempted the course. EG if I did biology and wasn't happy with my...

I can't see how anyone can believe that there is an absolute right or wrong in this conflict. It is a tremendously complex situation where both sides are culpable to some degree.

my friend did general maths, adv eng, textiles, art and business studies and got 96.2.

Phillipa Weekes Scholarship in Law (regional Law Scholarship) I was told is being decided on Monday (the 12th) and contact would be made soon after.

I debated against Swain. Unbelievable. He can talk quicker than I can think.

I was ranked 4/4 in my class in EE2 but got the highest exam mark (46) with an assesment of 35. But out of my class we had a film, speeches, poetry and a critical work - how can you compare such mediums?
