Hey Fayeee What was your ATAR? I can't get in to the bloody servers!

Hey Bayan92 i'm also aiming for USyd Pharm. C'mon 92.55!! wish the STAT test was scaled as well - i got 172 and so many people seemed to just scrape in on the 150/151 mark. chem is going to screw me but - best i seem to be able to get on previous exams is about 65% :(

God, i wish i'd applied for s.p.! :( MY handwriting is truly awful - i didn't know i could get sp just for that! i had occupational therapy for it way back in primary school and it still didn't get better. even an extra five minutes would have been awesome.

Deckard and Frankenstein can surely be compared? Both 'the creator'? Therefore if Scott is suggesting a link between Deckard and Descartes, the whole "I think, therefore I am', Descartes believing that animals feel no pain (as deckard implies) etc relates directly to Frankenstein's (initial)...

no kidding!!!! of course it's more than a coincidence! so homage is the best you guys can come up with? that's not a literary technique as far as i'm concerned - that's what it is but not what the technique is. i'm still thinking pun or homonym but was hoping someone knew some fancy word that...

hey, what do you call the literary technique here? a pun?? or is there some more sophisticated word i can use?

not a genius - just stupid! i only do three unit maths cos of the awesome teacher (and to avoid the terrible teacher that does 2-unit) and the extn history was just to keep a friend happy. so ony 11 that i'm actually trying with.

thanks for all your feedback guys - i'll keep thinking about it. btw, i don't plan to have a set essay for any of my english papers - i write to the question rather than memorising stuff so i can always decide to agree at the last minute! lol fyi: Subjects: adv english, extn 1 english, anc...

Thanks for your reply - i guess i was overstating my position to get a response. you're right of course, they did have different perspectives of the world - how could they not given the huge changes in the world over that time period? However i would still argue that their perspectives on where...

the syllabus says "...compare how the treatment of similar content in a pair of texts composed in different times and contexts may reflect changing values and perspectives." I would argue that scott and shelley had the same context ( shelley was the beginning of the industrial revolution and...

If i'm doing practice papers and getting a mark of about 75% each time does that mean that i will get about 75% as my HSC mark? or does it actually move up and down and i could end up with something very different? I understand all the scaling and aligning stuff - just wondered how 'accurate'...

That's great guys -thank you!

Thanks Shady - i'll be an expert at this just in time to never use it again!! OK, so my timetable is 8.00 get up/breakfast 8.30-11.30 Past paper - different subject each day (call this subject 1 for today) 11.30-12.00 break/eat 12.00-1.30 review things i didn't know on past paper 1.30-2.00...

Oops - that didn't work did it! Sorry about that - please take my previous post off if at all possible!

Well, for a start, don't call them holidays! Here is my study timetable if it's of any help - just substitute your own subjects.

Please fix SAM - it wants me to re-enter my subjects but then won't let me do it!

S1 67 S2 66 S3 56 Overall 63 Percentile 96 Did no preparation at all -didn't even look at sample questions :) My question is, if this is so good how come i am looking at a ATAR of only about 92 when i work my butt off!!!???

Does anyone have any trial questions or any others that they can post here for me to use? Any contributions gratefully received. Here's one to get this thread started: Romanticism in literature and art reflected the social, economic and and religious paradigms of the time. As these paradigms...

Does anyone have the Gammett quote used in the 2008 HSC paper? It is still awaiting copyright clearance on the BoS website and, judging from the examination notes, was quite different from previous papers. also, does anyone have any past Trial papers? Our school has the first two students to do...

we only have two and no teacher (we do it online) so we literally have to teach ourselves everything! :mad1:
