    Question About Which Path To Take

    Alright, I should start by saying that my goal is to do combined laws at USYD. I just received confirmation that my application for Macquarie's GLEP (Global Leadership Entry Program) has been successful and I have secured myself a position at Macquarie for combined laws in 2018. Despite this, I...

    The Subjective Nature of English

    English is subjective - it has to be. Problem I have is that the teacher that checks my work and validates it, doesn't always end up marking it. I can't list on my fingers how many times I've had my work checked by my Adv teacher only to get fucked by the marker.

    Berlin Christmas Market Attacks

    I can't even vent my anger anymore as it's just gotten to a point where it's unbelievable that this shit still occurs. How the fuck can we be so brainwashed to believe this push for Islamic immigration is benefiting anyone?

    The use of statistics in legal essays.

    Hey, yesterday I sat my legal essay and I worked really hard on it having constantly sent it to both legal teachers. However, I realise I only mentioned one statistic in the entire essay and some only used one as well, while others where using 5-8. I used three booklets, while others in my class...

    Are there no jobs for lawyers

    I want to enter the law field (I understand there's a lot of monetary incentive but I'm genuinely passionate to practice law), but there's a real threat that there's no jobs for lawyers. I know I'm not entering law for money but I mean... $$$. I just want to live comfortably and I thought...

    Can I get a good ATAR without maths?

    I was wondering whether not doing maths was going to make it especially hard for me to receive a good ATAR. The way I see it, I'd do so bad in maths that it wouldn't even be counted towards my ATAR.

    Considering Dropping Mathematics

    Hey, pretty self-explanatory. I'm considering dropping mathematics as I don't like the subject and feel that by doing it I'll be taking time away from my other subjects. It's not that I'm bad at math, I'm at the top of my class but in order for me to maintain good grades in math it takes A...

    ''Germany is on high alert after two bombs were detonated in the eastern city of Dresden last night.

    What technique's are in this?

    ''At that time, and at that time in every way, I would have needed encouragement. I was, after all, weighed down by your mere physical presence. I remember, for instance, how we often undressed in the same bathing hut. There was I, skinny, weakly, slight; you strong, tall, broad. Even inside the...
