    MQ Chatter Thread

    Hi, Slightly confused with the people and planet units. Should I be holding off on doing these? Also, should I be sticking with the suggested first year units? Looking at the requirements, there doesn't seem like much I could change even if I wanted to. Degree is BComBPsych(Hons) majoring in...

    ICAS Help

    In the junior years (7-10), we're automatically signed for a bunch of ICAS and the AMC. ICAS maths, majority of the grade gets HD. Everything else is not that great, especially when we have to do random shit like computing. AMC is harder, hence grade is a bit more spread out. Still quite a few...

    How would that work? They only accept a set number of students anyway so wouldn't the cut-offs change depending on performance in the test?

    Reason for James Ruse 1st in State and why is it not happening in other states?

    True. Letting people do standard would probably lower their b6/e4 percentages. Also, with the huge emphasis on scaling at top schools I'd imagine that Ruse would find a hard time getting a class together for standard. I go to a top 5 school and we currently have (prelim) 1 class doing solely...

    People need to rest and relax? Do you think someone could work a week straight with no sleep and no other activities in their life? If a person spent all of their time working then this would build up stress and actually lower their overall performance efficiency due to fatigue or lack of...

    Can I get a 99+ ATAR with these subjects?

    Good schools in Western Suburbs

    If we are arguing on the basis of time constraints and performance under pressure, then other parts of test are far more difficult. In english you are expected to complete 45 questions in 40 minutes. For most questions, you won't even have to read the entire text as the questions are designed...

    Good schools in Western Suburbs

    English for the Selective Test is really just basic comprehension, there's really no need for exposure to a wide range of texts. There's very little higher order stuff that requires you to think (I don't remember doing a single poem in my prep for it) and almost everything can be found by just...

    What are some really good case studies to use for HSC Business Studies overall ?

    I believe that using a single, main case study better suits the old business studies syllabus. Take a few minutes to read through the student learn to's of the old syllabus (particularly 9.5) compared to the current one. You will notice that the older syllabus is more inclined to ask for...

    What are some really good case studies to use for HSC Business Studies overall ?

    It'd depend on the question and how many points I'd choose to cover but 4 should be a minimum. If you are familiar with the PEEL style paragraph or something similar, case studies would account for the example so you should be including at least one in every body paragraph.
