    Year 11 > Year 12

    year 11 counts for nothing, year 12 actually matters. it's way more stressful. whoever voted that year 12 is less stressful is crazy...

    Are you still going to attend school AFTER the trial exams?

    yeah, we won't have finished the syllabus, so i have to... even if we were going to be finished, i'd go to school because i can ask teachers for help, do practice essays, etc, if i go home i'll waste time on the computer.

    What changes to your school would make year 12 easier?

    turning our school into a year 10-12 high school and the school next door 7-9, so we don't have to deal with irritating juniors making noises outside the classroom and disturbing our learning. not having firedrills. we've done it enough times over the junior years, we shouldn't have to waste...

    What UAI would you be content/happy with?

    i'd love to get over 90, but i think 80's is a more realistic number.

    Not So Bad???

    i agree. at our school we have two advanced english classes, and the teacher from the other class spoonfed them. in their half-yearlys pretty much everyone wrote the same thing. whereas our teacher barely tells us anything, and as a whole we performed way better than them, and had different...

    Facciamo una chiacchierata

    Mi dispiace per la posta doppia, ma... E' solo il mio computer, o l'esempi di esami orale nel BOS veramente non funzionano? esempio: http://arc.boardofstudies.nsw.edu.au/standards-packs/SP02_15800/ per me, non funziona :(

    Herculaneum Conservation Project

    it's a project that's concerned with conservation and preservation of the site and is many artefacts, which can fall into the category of methods of investigation... there aren't any artefacts/sources because it's a modern initiative, but basically they realised that maintenance programs were...

    Gap year talk.

    Re: Gap year [Rollcall] i have a friend in korea! i went there for a stopover once, we went around the markets at night... the lights are pretty trippy, but i saw heaps of garbage on the roads (and bums. they're everywhere). at krispy kreme, they had a glass window so you could see how things...

    Gap year talk.

    Re: Gap year [Rollcall] when you take it out of context it sounds like that. but the general idea of the post is that if that happens, i am prepared for it. i'm not going to cry and go home if it does. sorry if that wasn't clear in my other post.

    Some teachers unfair with marking..?

    lol definitely. i disagree. how is making it impossible to achieve that goal supposed to motivate me? if you read my original post, this is exactly what i was talking about. if you get 100% once, it doesn't guarantee you'll get it the next time. if you get 100%, you'll be motivated to match...

    Gap year talk.

    Re: Gap year [Rollcall] even bestest best friends can separate, so it doesn't really matter if we are or aren't. if it happens, it happens. i was planning to go on my own in the first place, so while i would love to have a friend along to share the experience, it doesn't make much difference tbh...

    Gap year talk.

    Re: Gap year [Rollcall] nah, i've got a friend to go with me. we both want to go to the same places, so it should be good (as long as we don't have a huge fight overseas or something, lol). if we go to ireland first we can meet up with another friend who's going there.

    Some teachers unfair with marking..?

    you don't get a percentage for life, this is about school. when you don't get 100% when you deserve it, it's not very motivational.

    08ers, how many of you want to do comm or comm/law??

    it sounds like it would be a really interesting degree to do, but i doubt i'll get the UAI (it's in the mid-high 90's at most unis, right?).

    Gap year talk.

    Re: Gap year [Rollcall] i agree, i don't want to start uni being burnt out already, so a year of exploring Europe seems the perfect way to take a break... and plus, it can motivate me to work in uni, so i can do it again. i haven't got anything planned yet though, lol.
