Re: POLL - What school you at? OMFG this is a long thread. Why didn't someone start a new thread, like this year? Anyway, I go to Shoalhaven High School, which is a povo-looking public school. It's okay once you get used to it, I guess. If the principal or whoever is in charge of employing...

So, did anyone actually go to James Ruse? A friend of mine got Reserve A when she went for Selective High exam, but ended up at Baulkham hills High. I've heard rumours that you have to consistently do well- 75%+ ALL the time- to stay in that school (not surprising considering how many people...

Um your school's rank has nothing to do with your rank. You only have to worry about your rank within the school- you'll obviously do better if you're first in your year. I think the 'school rank' is only worked out later. Eg. if everybody gets marks in the 90s in one school in English, and...

:mad1: Well this is the first time I've heard about this.... It would be good to get first in the state at something- the closest I've ever come to that was getting an award and an oversized t-shirt for doing the best at school in a Mathematics competition. The shirt was white with some print...

Heheh that sound like a good idea Testpilot. Yell at her and call her a stupid bitch even if you don't get a good result- just run away before she can see them. But bloody hell, a 95% average is awesome. Even with my crap marks, where the highest is between 85% and 95% in Maths, my predicted...

Ok I am totally scared of my results. I know they're not going to be too good, because English totally sucks. In the SC I got band 5 in English, but I only got 38% in my Advanced English exam. I'm going to ask my friends how they did before I check myself- I'm not in a hurry... Then if they...

lol ok making it look like your worst subject was a stupid thing to say lol..... I was just trying to think of stuff to do. You could just make something look like your subject eg. equations and formulae for maths. I'm not doing BA, but yeah I'm going to keep some stuff. Most likely doing...

Hey I found the Chem exam great, since my second last exam was Extension 1 Maths- yukky, awful..... I found this quite an easy paper. Multiple choice questions were pretty good. The one about the catalysts of ethanol- I think I got that right. I tried to remember which catalyst was which by...

Hey sorry schoolies guys but I put this thread in Schoolies cos it's a post-exam event. Should put it in entertainment instead lol. So, what are you doin with your notes after you're finished with them? Are you gong to file them away and perhaps sell them to younger students, or are you going...

crap crap crap, die die die usually do well, but a lot of those questions were sooo terrible looking it wasnt worth the 20minutes it would've took to fudge the one or two marks it was worth would like so much to say yay i never have to do that again, but sorry folks there's a high chance i'll...

hey i live on the south coast! shoalhaven area.. always looking to meet new people. when ya coming down? i can help u find stuff to do. there's always jamberoo when you're in the general area. oh and there's cruises that only take a few hours going up and down the shoalhaven river.

heheh freaking idiots for buying something if its unrefundable, or at least thinking its unrefundable. But if u really wanna get rid of some people, work out the minimum amount of people u need to get rid of for it to work, then tell us some details such as WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU GOING?! then...

heheh omg you're pretty desperate, ay? well I don't have definite plans for schoolies. I am so not going to the Gold coast cos I cant afford it and i don't like having soo many people around me, especially when it attracts cops and toolies and stuff. U can come with us when we eventually go if...

hey i got nothing much planned for schoolies. was gonna go visit my nan and pop there so i can stay for free and get spoiled. I'm 17 though (18 end of jan yay!) there is stuff to do if u look. i was surfing the net. If u have enough money u can go on day cruises, snorkeling/scuba diving...

OMG i believe, like a lot of people, that english isn't a waste of study BUT what we did study was a waste of time. there are way too many people out there who can't correctly use the english language. I mean how many times have you seen something written with the wrong form of...

ooooooh i soo hated the journeys paper! i left section 1 till last, cos i can usually bullshit my way through those questions. I kept changing which question i was doing because i hated the other two. section 2 ended up as a half-page dot point story about an old man who went camping as a boy...

heheh yeah. i am glad many people were having trouble with the food question. i just crapped on about the jars being used to keep the food in, and the fact they used standard measurements or something like that to sell the stuff. I finished a little early but I stayed and kept going back over...

Hey yeah! Well I did better than most of you Hatshepsut people! The foreign policy thing, I talked about her military campaigns and the expedition to Punt. You could have just bullshitted about anything she did outside of Egypt and gotten marks for it. Heheh that exam was great. Pompeii and...

Ok I also hate writing essays, etc. But the best thing to do is to do a Journeys essay based on the rubric if you aren't sure. then look at the question again and see exactly what it is asking. The question usually will focus on one part of the rubric. If it asks you about what you...
