    Maths Seminar

    The price for registered members is comparable with that charged for other popular HSC seminars. Our special dual group package goes beyond this to provide a significant discount. Note the following comparison with the EdAssist HSC seminars (www.edassist.com.au): <center><table width="80%"...

    torts assignment!!

    That's very helpful of you, Brent. :P Okay. The 'core test' used to establish a duty of care in a generic negligence action is the criterion of reasonable foreseeability. It must be reasonably foreseeable that a particular class of persons could suffer some sort of harm as the result of...

    Aligned Mark?

    The marks can be obtained through a Freedom of Information application. There are further details available on the Board's website and in this thread.

    Who has a copy of the CSSA and Independent Trials 2004?

    It might be easier if you just upload the papers to the website. :)

    torts assignment!!

    No - I didn't mean to imply that there were multiple simultaneous duties. You can think of it like this... the nervous shock tests are used to establish that each plaintiff was sufficiently proximate, and the statutority authority tests are used to establish that the defendant was...

    torts assignment!!

    You just need to run through all the tests. The authority is the subject of the statutory authority tests, and the plaintiffs are the subject of the nervous shock tests. (They're both needed to establish a duty, but keep them separate.)

    Mmm... we ended up discussing it via PM. Ranks shouldn't change.

    Why BOS ALWAYS lags

    We hold dance parties and seminars to raise revenue for the site. :) Outbound data is generally 150+ GB per month. Oh... well that was unexpected. I'll have to get Tim to fix it.

    Legislation

    You might also want to check out the Evidence Act 1995 (NSW). :)

    Why BOS ALWAYS lags

    Everyone who runs the site (and owns the company behind it) is in Australia... it's just the actual data that is stored overseas. :) View the source of the page and search for paypal and you'll find out the location of the icon. Dual Xeons are nice, but expensive. Server costs are our...

    2001 HSC Solutions

    If you're lucky, someone might scan the solutions from one of the various HSC books that contain them. Otherwise, you'll probably have to ask for specific questions. :)

    Maths Seminar

    That's fine - so long as each student in the group is attending at least one seminar. :) You'll certainly get a good feel for the courses and all the topics you'll be covering. If you'd like to get ahead and obtain a bit of 'pre-emptive' exposure to HSC material (which might make it easier for...

    So u want to get 95+ and u do "easy" subjects

    There is no such book. The parameters for both scaling and aligning are determined afresh each year. Past statistics are available, but they say nothing about the future.

    You include Maths Extension 1 and Maths Extension 2. Each course is worth two units and is marked out of 100.

    help me out....

    Yes, schools have to send in the actual marks - they indicate the relative differences between students.
