    Have you started studying for trials?

    I've been doing past papers. I have my good days, I have my bad. Some days I can complete 3 past papers and notes, others I can barely do one.

    What option are you doing this year?

    School gave us an option of Q2Q and Medical Physics. I took medical physics because it looked easier and there's no point in me doing Q2Q because I'd never want to do anything like that in my life.

    should i choose business studies

    That's true in a way. Also I'd say, it really depends on your other subjects. Like with me, I chose Business Studies (I was told I shouldn't) because I wanted 2-units which I wouldn't have to stress to much and still be able to do well. Business is A LOT less stressful in comparison to...

    should i choose business studies

    Economics will help you in the Global Economy section, however I don't do economics so I can't tell you to what extent it will help. Business Studies is a highly enjoyable subject and I would recommend it to anyone. I chose it over Economics and I haven't ever regretted it. Just don't choose...

    GFC in HSC?

    I'm not too sure, but I don't think so. We're doing business studies - not economics. However you never know, because the state of the economy affects things such as external sources to change and have influences on marketing, finance etc.

    Accounting Cadetships 2009

    I've heard from my friends that UTS is better. Mainly because you've already secured a position and the university won't make that much of a difference. Of course, that's just what I've heard. I'm no expert on accounting, nor have I done a degree at university - so I can't be sure. My friend...

    help with E.R newspaper article...

    Yes. Most teachers are part of a union - either the NSW Teachers Federation, or the Independent Teacher's Union. Hence the school or the Department of Education acts as an employee - hence this relates to industrial relations.

    Marks deducted for using advanced method

    It really depends on the teacher. I go to a coaching college which assumes that maths is easy - so we get taught a lot of advanced methods. At my school, we have two MX1 classes, my class being the more advanced one. Hence my teacher allows us to use any method, whereas the other teacher often...

    modern history vs physics

    Physics . 1. It's actually useful and teaches you how the world works and everything within it. 2. It's maths orientated. Anyone who does extension maths can do the maths in physics - it just makes it easier. 3. If you end up doing 4U - it helps when learning mechanics. 4. Decent scaling...

    Would u still do English

    I'd probably not do english - not because I don't like it, or because I think it's irrelevant, but because English is my weakest subject and I think if I had the option - I'd replace it with something like Economics or Biology, where I'd be more confident in. Or I'd replace English with a...

    july hols

    Don't do the mistake I did. I didn't take my accelerated program seriously - hence I only got a low band 6. I really only studied like a few days before the HSC - and even then I wasn't doing past HSC questions, was trying to re-remember concepts I forgot. EDIT: I'm trying to make my holidays...

    DSP Schools

    Yep for sure. Basically the whole south west is haha. I go to a pretty well off private school in the south west. We've got pretty good resources, teachers, but because we're in the south - we're disadvantaged =D
