    SMH article on how shit is HSC English

    I disagree. studying classics brings them down. studying them in school restricts a true appreciation of the text because you are not looking at the text in its entirety. you are looking at it through a filter, like belonging or what the 2008'ers did which was journeys. i find it...

    My teacher put the wrong rank

    after the hsc exams there is this process where the students have to make sure that they agree with the ranks submitted by your school (cause the school may have made a few errors when entering mark) that is your last chance to challenge the rank your school gave you

    Neglecting classwork as study material

    ignoring class notes will work fine for the hsc. however remember that your teacher is writing your exams and assignments, and so if they focus on certain things in class, it would be beneficial to be aware of this for testing purposes

    hardworking Vs. intelligence

    can I just say that you have to run through a bit of logic with claims like this. if somebody told me they were studying for 15 hours straight per day, I wouldnt believe them. furthermore, if they claimed that they were getting good grades because they studied for 15 hours i would call their...

    scholarships

    a lot of people dont do comp sci, they do comp engineering instead (I dont know why though), which meant that last year there were vacancies after the main round in comp sci. so they let in people below the 88.00 UAI mark just to fill up the course. so if you really want to do comp sci at...

    If we bludged in Prelim: Physics, Chemistry, Economics, Society and Culture

    chem: as already said, gotta know moles. its kind of hard but a few things in hsc course rely on it. if you dedicate some serious study time to it, you could get it done yourself, or perhaps get a good tutor to explain it to you economics: you have to know demand and supply. i found that a lot...

    What two prescribed texts are you using for Crime Fiction?

    ouch, a lot of you dont like Hound. a shame, I found that the most entertaining part of the course. and for the record, I think anil's ghost might be a more boring read. its a novel written by a poet, imagine that! not a bad text once you have finished though

    Students with 14 units, advice and motivation

    being honest with myself: -if it wasnt for eng ext 2 I probably would never actually put in effort into writing a solid short story -if it wasnt for eng ext 1 I would never have watched the great play The Real Inspector Hound and would never have learnt about crime fiction -if it wasnt for...
