    what motivates u to read books

    chapter when you wake up, chapter when you go to bed and a chapter when you take a dump. if the book turns out to actually be good, then you will naturally read 2 or 3 chapters instead of 1 each time.

    Is it okay to bug teachers?

    what if they, like most students, dont have a tutor? this is annoying. ever had it happen to you when the question was actually content that should be covered according to the syllabus? thats the worst

    How did you quit your job?

    I dont see how you are going to get HIV. (Im assuming here that you are not infact the dentist, even so the risk would be close to nothing) agreed. you have burnt a bridge and you havent even done it well. if you hate your job and want to get fired, then at least do it well. take some...

    Study Discussion

    Re: Help! I can't get motivated these holidays! think of the smartest person you know of (if it someone from BoS then *sigh*) then think: did they become smart by learning about thier field through rigorous study? or did they go around and moan to thier friends about how they were unmotivated?

    Is 99.5+ an unrealistic aim for me?

    humanities can get a bit cloudy, one on day the essay may get 12/20, another day 17/20. but at the very top end, where talented students are pushing for full marks there isnt that much variance. a top essay is very clearly a top essay and will get full marks, regardless of the marker but...

    Carbon Tax versus Emissions Trading

    lol, this would be good too. incorporate carbon emissions into pricing of everything. except politically it wont sound as prestigious as the ETS

    Carbon Tax versus Emissions Trading

    true, but is the final effect not the same? you can either increase the carbon tax or you decrease the carbon quota depending on what system you use lol @ Garnaut: perhaps we should do nothing now and "have another crack at it and do a better one when time is right" see, the biggest...

    is this true / common?

    well for most courses this would be true, but i would assume that courses like medicine and law have such high demand that they would never need to look below the cut off to fill places but for other degrees certainly. I know quite a few people who got into a degree despite being quite below...

    Carbon Tax versus Emissions Trading

    this poll is essentially pointless. last year we had an indepth look at this debate in economics and either method would work perfectly fine. its not like one would work and the other one would just fail after 2 years, both would reduce emissions. just 2 routes to the same location the...

    which university is the best for psychology ?

    you can go to 7 different universities around australia and each one will say "We are the best for psychology because..." and each will base the decision on different criteria whether it be most funding, best teacher student ratio or something else. and ofcourse, the criteria they pick will be...

    Is it okay to bug teachers?

    definately ask questions that you want to know the answer to, but dont go around asking thousands of questions that are just a pointless because you think it will help. these kids are just annoying, they will ask a question without putting thier hand up or anything every time the teacher...

    Highest UAI '09

    according to my HSC documents, the median for advanced english looks to be at something like 76-78 (high band 4) but a lot of marks are in the band 5 range, so I would say 80 is probably the average student's mark

    Preventing stupid mistakes

    I used to make mistakes on simple things, like not expanding properly or changing of a sign or something really simple. so when i would check over things i would do the math for the next line of a question in my head, then i would compare what was in my head to what i had already written down...

    Suggestions--what makes a good speech?

    One thing to add to may cat's post is the use of 2nd person aswell. you can use 1st person as she stated but it is also engaging to talk directly to the audience with the use of 2nd person.

    Think this is a good idea?

    part of writing notes is going through content and making sure you understand it. so if you come across a dot point you cant do, you cant make notes about it, so you have to go and learn the dot point. this is what helps you when making notes. so if you dont make notes you still need to go...
