Re: Full School Rankings my school dropped about 60 places, thus confirming the theory about my year group.

my expectations for it were exceedingly low so i wasn't disappointed. i quite liked Charlie, i hate that Bella is so ungrateful toward him. Edward and Bella's relationship was contrived and superficial (though i found it to be that way in the novel too) some over-the-top acting (Edward...

agree. i had a massive cram throughout the exam period and did all my assessments, but i didn't study consistently and still got 90+. having a good memory made up for laziness in this situation.

oh, right, it would help if i read the post properly lol.

i was only expecting 80, so i put my first preference as BA for a uni which had it at around 76... then i got higher so i'll change it now. but are you sure UNSW commerce last year was 90.2? i could have sworn i looked somewhere and it said 95 or so... hmmm.

Re: Top 200 Schools - Daily Telegraph we were in the top 200 last year but not this year. not a great surprise, really. i wonder what our rank was though... i tried searching the website for all the ranks but couldn't find anything.

Dad: Is that good? Mum: Whoa. See, bachelor of arts IS below you. You could get into medicine with that right? UAI: 92.65 my dad wouldnt have the slightest clue on how it's calculated, lol. not as bad as a friend's mum though, when he told her 82 she was like, 'oh, that low huh?'

Re: Top 20 in Course List Wollongong High. Just looked through the list, and nothing :( nah, i looked through the entire list and not a one, lol. we at least had a couple last year (for dance, drama and CAFS), but the 2007 group were machines compared to us. we suck, lol.

Re: Top 20 in Course List so, pretty sure no one from my school got anything. thus confirming that my year group is in fact possibly the dumbest since our 2005 group.

yes. i'm impatient.

i wonder what people would be saying if he was an adult. people have this 'aww poor baaaaaaaby' attitude because he's only a teen, if he were an adult i bet the people in the article would side with the police. from what was written in the article, the police officers' actions sound justifiable.

first off, having an italian background does not mean you will be able to do well. one of the people in my class has an italian background, which turned out to be a hindrance because at home his family speaks dialect. another girl who decided to take italian continuers in year 11 switched...

they had 'programmata' or electoral graffiti, i.e 'vote Gaius Julius Polybius aedile. He brings good bread' (bread was one of the things handed out for free at games, and is thus an example of the patronage system on a wide scale), abbreviations i.e. VB = 'good man', DRP = 'worthy of the public...

the book is a collection of a few fairytales from the HP world. i'm pretty sure you can read about it on amazon, they had a few hand-made copies that they auctioned off for charity before mass-producing them (again, for charity, i believe).

yeah, i tied in two subjects, english and bio. for bio they separated us, for english they just left it the same. i asked my teacher why they didn't separate us, he says it's basically impossible so they just send in the ranks as equal.

um, so you're saying that an entire grade/class of people can submit the same essay and there will be no consequences? okay then ;)

+1. i learned this in year 10, song lyrics simply don't have enough substance (i.e. depth, techniques) to analyse on their own, unless you're a really good student in both music and english don't try it.

why is everyone saying no? do you seriously think that if an entire school turned in essays, as the OP says, 'near word for word', that there would be absolutely no consequences? if i read really similar essays i'd think either, 1. teacher wrote it for them, 2. they all plagiarised another...

at first when i read eragon there were quite a few things i didn't like, but i still enjoyed it. however, i re-read it again recently and despised it. aside from ripping off star wars and lord of the rings, it's cliched and badly-written... i hate arya with a passion, she's so unrealistically...

worst: business best: italian
