    Scaling for standard English?

    It'll be very difficult to get 95 with those subjects. Doable though. Standard is the absolute killer.

    The largest ever study in to drug harms places alcohol in the top four

    I don't think thinking of heroin as pharmaceutical grade is valid, although your point is spot on about the side-effects of a pure batch. It's a problem because 99.9% of users use the stuff on the street, cut with all sorts of chemicals and toxic substances, organic or otherwise. Then most...

    Hand writing...

    Fair call, understood. Maybe I should've just written 1600 illegible words and had one of those reports filed, instead of making my scripts concise and neat.

    Hand writing...

    errr no. Handwriting is a skill, it's not a trait (unless you have a diagnosed condition). Don't belittle those who take time and care to improve their script. My handwriting would look horrible too if I wrote too fast. It's like saying 'it would be phenomenally unfair to fail those who didn't...

    Truongs Maths Tutoring, any comments?

    You hardly know him at all. He's one of the most considerate, passionate and caring people I've ever met.

    The largest ever study in to drug harms places alcohol in the top four

    Is the 'score' (y-axis logarithmic)? You can't tell me heroin is 57% more harmful than grass.

    Hand writing...

    That would be phenomenally unfair to those who took the care to write legibly, unless you have a pathological condition that would affect your handwriting. OP, post a sample!

    Good summary =]. I have quite a few Year 10 students on a waiting list to start English tuition in 2013... Must be 'Year 10 curiosity season'!

    Sefton high school 99.95?

    Wooo, combined sci-med, I like this kid! 1) Nope, not dependant on the UMAT at all. USyd's better than that =P 2) You actually don't need state rankings at all to get a .95. Just make sure you're in the top 2 for ALL subjects at Sefton, and are consistent across the board. GOOD LUCK! =D

    Transferring into Medicine...yes, another one...:)

    Fair point, but there are those who choose based on their notions of 'prestige'. Fair enough, good luck to them - in my opinion no one has the right to make judgements about one's passions just because they want to go to a 'prestigious' uni. I personally don't agree with this however because at...

    Transferring into Medicine...yes, another one...:)

    +1. Some people want to go to universities that they have deemed 'prestigious'. Whether this line of thinking is correct or not is none of your business, LoveHateSchool.

    Struggling with MX2

    I see where you're coming from - but you've stated it too harshly/unfairly. A lack of communication skills/confidence will eventually catch up to them. But in their defence, Eng Adv is a compulsory subject!
