    Exponentials to the power of themselves

    I'm not sure if this is in the right section but I have always been wondering about the style and depictions of the graphs [y = x^x, y= x^(x^2) or xlogx, y= f(x)^f(x) and vise versa] could someone please sketch or describe it to me if they have the time. Thks in advance.

    The Simpsons vs Family Guy

    Yes, I made a thread like this. I never really liked Family Guy past Season 1 as the "jokes" became stale fast and the show just now relies on crude humour. The Simpsons (Post season 13) has become stale as well with comedy being just focused on how Homer Simpson getting hurt by...

    Scrubs vs. Grey's Anatomy

    Scrubs is more comedic and light-hearted than Grey's Anatomy even though its has its dramatic moments. Grey's is pretty much the opposite, drama with comedic monents. However, I never really got into Grey's even though it shares similar concepts to Scrubs. However IMO House M.D beats both...

    Supernatural...any fans??

    It will be back in April/May considering if Channel 10 "fast tracks" it again. (You probably already know this but the writer strike ended a while ago and filming and script writing is about to begin again.)

    How much should you be writing?

    I focus on quality of my writing and follow the criteria on my assessment sheets rather than how much I actually write. That being said I write around 3-5 pages in an hour depending on the question and the subject. As long as you follow the criteria on the assesment sheet, include...

    Introduce yourself, why not?

    *Looks back to first reply post, with emphasis on "the you don't know me part"* :D My username was a choice between "The Kaiser" and "Dry Martini" if it helps (darn the latter sounds better)

    Introduce yourself, why not?

    Thanks! I wish you the best of luck with your UAI and your subjects as well. Yep. Also aiming for a full scholarship from University of Sydney or NSW. (UAI for Non-Scholarship medicine is 95 I think)

    Introduce yourself, why not?

    lol I was wondering who you were. As for me - I go to Sydney Boys High - Eurasian Background (Parents of European and Asian nationalities) - Academic Achiever (And too much of a "try-hard") - Will get 99.95+ UAI (otherwise I'm toast)

    So You Think You Can Dance (Australia)

    Basically its the "Dance Version" of Australian/American Idol. Not so bad but then again not so good either IMO. I'd still watch it if nothing else is on. Nothing's worse than "Big Brother" though, why the hell is Ten renewing that damn show? Does anyone know the names of the Judges? *Darn...

    The Shittest Movie Ever.

    Baby Geniuses 1 and 2. If there are any movies worse than those two I'd like to hear it. Mean Girls, Master of Disguise, Gligi, Super Mario Bros and From Justin to Kelly come close though.

    Neighbours

    So many Actors/Actresses are leaving Neighbours which makes it hard to keep track of who's leaving and who's staying. Already 4 cast members are leaving by April! The ratings still aren't much better after the revamp than before. (Before it was >700,000 now it's around 800,000)

    Supernatural...any fans??

    Blame the Writers strike in the USA, Channel Ten can't get new eps until the Supernatural writers start producing episodes again. Same thing has happened to House M.D, Heroes, Medium etc. I enjoy watching Supernatural, I love the character development between Sam/Dean and the plot is starting...

    Textbook Maths in Focus

    It's not a very good book in my opinion. Excel is way better with explanations and worked solutions, and Cambridge is great for those development and extension questions. The Longman books are decent as well.

    Sydney Boys

    True. The top 120 kids ( Generally the top 4 classes) sit the HSC 2 unit Mathematics course in Year 11 and are ranked accordingly for placement in the 4 Unit course. (that is only the top 120 students can do the 4 unit course) However if a student in the top 120 does not want to do Extention 2...

    UAI cut off!!

    Well it depends, some people get really high UAI's but still can't get into the courses that they wish. The University will look at your record and judge your acceptance in your chosen course by looking at your participation at your school/community etc and your UAI mark. At least, that's what...

    Sydney Boys

    The Options test or "Placement" exam is basically to place you in graded classes for the Preliminary Mathematics Ext 1 course. It consists of early Prelininary topics and for us it is worth a third of our total mark. However, I do not know what the weighing this test is to your total mark. There...
