If you look at the quality of the essays as well, you can see a huge difference between standard and advanced. However, the quality of standards have been rising, so there are increasing numbers. However, the marking of the paper have also gotten tougher!

I say the best way to study for English is to prepare a generic essay and practice applying it to different questions. You also need to pratice writing as fast as you can. For Module B though, it's really hard to memorise an essay as the questions are so unpredictable. so I guess for that...

You guys are pretty unorganised! Our yearbook committee has sorted out al the student pages, and I think they're getting teacher quotes now. We're paying for ours at the end of the term. In our yearbook, we have half a page dedicated to each person - with questions like "dream partner"...

I get up in the morning and go for a jog and a walk - not long, something like 30 mins. I only do that weekdays though - it's to fully wake me up for school. Unfortuately, I've been eating really badly. Apart from my normal food from family, I've been eating so much chocolate (every since...

I wish I kept legal studies...so that I could drop a unit of maths. I love 3 unit, but I really don't like the stuff we learn in 4 unit.

I need the experimental data first off. That's what I'm asking for, so I can analyse it according to the theory.

well, I'm working 1 day a week, sometimes two (I live so close to work, i.e. across the street, my boss just calls me over too much!) But from beginning of September, I'm going to stop working altogether.

Yes but I wish to know how far off the theory an actual experimental figure is. So I can analyse why it isn't exactly the expected result.

Yeah, you are supposed to get the CD separately (my tutor is a contributor to the book). Though the CD isn't that brilliant. It's just experienments are things. If you do experiments at school, you'll be okay without it.

er, spotlight is okay, but not so good as the others. I use Physics Contexts because my tutor was a writer, so he knows what's going on. I can understand it better - though Jacaranda has better colours so attractive during study! You should get 2 textbooks so you can cross reference - I use...

I can't remember that well...our half yearlies were quite a while ago! We just had our maths ones, 4u was 80minutes - about 60 marks. However, last year's was 50 marks and 75minutes. 3u was 70minutes, I think it was 100 marks, but there was only like 5 questions. For english, we always...

I know, I thought it was a bit stupid too, but it might be because the kid wanted the award you get if you get all band 6s. Well, I dropped everything I could at the beginning of the year because I thought why put myself through unnecessary work? And now I regret dropping so many because I...

Yeah, the theory says that, but I would like some actual figures.

It's best not to use another film. One of the kids at my school did it, even with another related, but the teacher still wasn't happy. The best and easiest ones to do are photographs or paintings. try to stay away from ads because their main purpose is to make a profit, not to send out a...

You only have to remember a few quotes. I read this essay just the other day, and it had like a 5 line quote in it. I was like WHOA! (the person only got into the midrange) If you use quotes that are too long, you lose your audience as they forget what you're talking about. Remember, the...

Wow, I never knew that this was a Standard English Text! And why related material for module B? (Isn't that movie rated R?)

We are so dreadfully behind! Just wondering what we're supposed to be up to so that I can teach myself. Currently we're finishing Module 1 (we did Module 2 first) and have about a section to go. Asking because one of my friends at school say that she's up to option modules in chem, so I'm...

Anyone got any good photos of that experiment? Aside from stuff you can get of the net. Just wondering if you guys have ones from your own experiments at school. Our school's are quite bad... especially the one showing striations and Faraday's dark space. Also, just a question, with the...

Our fermentation prac kinda went bad...both weights increased at the end of 2 days! :confused: I dunno what happened, but our teacher decided to avoid discussing that it happened, so now, I have no results! Does anyone have their results so I can analyse them? I just need some figures... not...

Can't drop it anymore? That's weird! There was a kid at my school who dropped one of her subjects like half an hour before her HSC exam. Though I think if you want to drop a subject, better do it asap, or you'll be spending a lot of unnecessary time on a subject that isn't going to count anyway!
