Everyone says don't worry about scaling etc just pick what you like. I love my subjects, but i could do better in Sciences. Liking my subjects is good, but in terms of UAI I should have done the subjects that I'm better at. Should do fairly well anyway I guess. Physics I found piss easy but am...

How about when the war is to stop a worse evil? Eg. WWII Fighting to stop genocide and other evils? War is in of itself a bad thing (Unless you're an arms manufacturer) but sometimes the only alternative. I would rather lose the 50 million lives of WWII than live under Nazism. (And yes I had...

I actually tend to agree, at least about the HSC, and then also about war to some extent. I hate it when all war is made out to be evil.

Should have done as in: Did chemat start of preliminary, was goinw well but got bored so dropped it... 5 weeks before end of preilm and picked up physics. Afeter 5 weeks of physics came 6th out of 30 in physics. After not doing chem for 5 weeks randomly turned up to the exam and got 2nd in it by...

SoulSearcher, Have you ever not posted in a thread?

Hahahaa, this is my thread. There was almost nothing I didn't want to do! I ended up dong 12 units 'cause i figured would probably work out best for my UAI So I dropped: Ext Eng Physics Chemistry Ancient And i didn't pick up: Ext Hist Ext II Eng And other subjects I wanted to so in Yr 11 but...

There's no incentive to study like losing 3 consecutive $50 sit and gos. (Btw i am not shit at poker, I had previously won more than that)

Qft I just keep liking you more and more! A braindead monkey could see that Labour is corrupt, useless, and lacks a basic grasp of economics (i.e. Spending more than you have = deficit).

That would have been great! Btw, just found out that Robert jordan, who writes Wheel of Time, of which I have read 11 books, has a terminal illness. Not going to be happy if he doesn't finish the last book! Slightly self centred i guess,

I type mine! (Can barely read my writing so kinda necesary) I see where you're coming from saying include everything in your notes but I don't really agree. My notes are pretty detailed but if they were going to have everything it would just get ridiculous, Modern for example i used 3 text...

Just read Torments of a traitor - Ian Irvine Knife of Dreams (Book 11 Wheel of Time) - Robert Jordan Odalisque - Fiona McIntosh All very good, particularly Wheel of Time And have to read The Tempest by William S, so, so, boring.

I've done most of my syllabus summaries for Legal, SoR, and Modern. I was just wondering If anyone has a particular format or trick that they find particularly useful. My notes started of really basic but I kept thinking of different stuff to put in, for example: Text box around syllabus point...

I'd probably get more done without BoS. I sit doen on computer, all ready to type up n essay and I think to myself 'Better just check BoS before I start". Read a few posts, write a few messages, And then I go to bed

Still find it weird hearing people 17/18 years old saying 'I can't imagine moving out' etc. I will move out as soon as I finish HSC I imagine. But I guess going to Bordo I'm fair used to not beig at home. Oh, and for what I was originaly going to say: B Laws/B Economics USYD (99.6!) B Laws/B...

How old are you? 17 Male/Female Male 1.How old were you when you had your first alcoholic drink? 13 2. In a regular week how many alcoholic drinks would you have? Mon-0 Tues-0 Wed-0 Thus-0 Fri-2 Sat-2 Sun-0 3. If you are under 18, how did you get your last alcholic drink? Mate bought it 4...

Giving spots to people who worked hard in Yr 12 rather than people who will be good at them makes no sense.

Was a bit rough not letting people know beforehand but I think the idea in itself is good. People here seem to concerned with arguing the micro (UNSW Commerce degrees) and seem to ignore the macro. UAI is not the ultimate determiner of how well someone will do at University. For a start...

I find almost zero external ressure. There are expectations but I don't find it to be pressure. It shits me to tears every year in the Sydney morning Herald (And every other newspaper) come HSC time there is an obligatoy article entitled "Why do we put so much ressure on our kids?" Get over it...

Should shake things things up a bit. I'd piss myself laughing if he beat Iemma. I don't get to vote 'til federal elction but I'd vote Liberals if I could. Labor have proven themselves to be hopeless. Look at health care, transport and education in NSW for a start. Then ther'es the quality of...

Chemistry is a piece of piss. Physics I found even easier. Chem in prelim is ridiculously boring, but easy. Physics in Prelim is a lot of maths, not a high level of amths, if you have strong algebra and can solve moderate equations than you will nail physics. Chem is more content based, problem...
