I never listen to music while working. I listen to a lot of metal (mainly speed/melodeath) while running or playing dota. When I listen to most songs on my ipod I can visualize my self running in beat, or particular parts of my running course.

Every waking minute.

The Eco thing was different. That's because Uni level eco concepts (Mind you we aren't going beyond ECON1001 here) help a lot with basic Eco, but we aren't doing any shit like that for HSC. Just normal shit like globalization. For English, most people struggle with basic concepts anyways...

If there's more than 1 line between quotes/techniques, get rid of some of it.

You're wrong mate. It's just we do a harder module (Navigating the Global, think postmodernism slammed together with globalization) as compared to BELONGING, which is lolworthy. I'd rather be doing Crime or Sci Fi, it would be much much easier. I hate philosophical thinkers and I don't really...

Extension is way harder than Advanced, or what I've done of it so far. But I do enjoy both. Maybe it's just my teachers. Advanced is easier than Extension for me.

That is normal paper, just the lines are faint. God help me if there aren't lines

Why isn't English Advanced up there? I find that to be be a perfectly good HSC course. Out of that list though, I'd pick IB English HL.

If you're intelligent, why not do extensions? Just because you're too fucking stupid to do them doesn't mean we can't do them. He doesnt have a tutor. In fact, most of our top 40 don't get tutored(myself included). I can easily name 30/40 in the top 40 that dont get tutored. That's not 99%. Most...

~90. Don't see it being much higher with those ranks. High rank school helps your case though. English and Maths need work. You should be aiming top 5 in everything for 95.65. For 99.85 you'd have to be 1st in everything.

Mate I know plenty about the real world, but for me I want to get my education over and done with asap. I know for a fact that later in life I'll have oppurtunities for awesome holidays and shit so I'm just gonna work for now. Also I'm not all about the marks, if I was I wouldnt make friends...

Why did you take a gap year addikaye? I mean 97.8 is heaps good in order to go for Engineering.

Mate you really have no fucking clue do you? I'm a wanker (I do it daily) and I got to James Ruse. But no, I didn't know the 4U course in Year 9, and neither did anyone else in my grade. We only actually learnt more about what was in it etc in Year 11 (that's basically kids that went to...

Nope. It's unlikely you'd know him, he's in my grade.

Enjoying the short shorts obsession here.

Mate, I don't do Physics, I do 4U Maths and Chem, however my Maths and Chem are my lowest subjects. Instead, my high subjects are Modern History (97.4% RAW), Economics (98% raw), 2U English (95% raw) and 3U english (94% raw). 93 aligned suddenly doesn't seem so hard does it mate? And the range...

Not all of us are genius enough to grasp 4U in Year 11.

No that was including school homework. I dont really do any study that's not schoolwork and I'm doing fine. Also the grade above has some real hardcore freaks (I can PM you about them), and my grade isn't too bad itself. Also Redfield is getting 99.95.

I guess Unis would care until you got in. After that they stop worrying about your UAI and start worrying about your grades in Uni. I guess the only reason I really want 99.95 is $10,000 scholarship a year at UNSW to do Comm/Eco.

Nobody ever paid much attention to the subjects I was good at in Years 7-10, and I never really tried. My good subjects were English, Drama, Commerce, and History/Geography. Nobody cared about these subjects. They mainly cared about maths and science, and I was abysmal at both. Then this year I...
