    The Official Cricket Thread 2006/2007

    5/350 odd at stumps. That's an excellent score for any day one. Although, England made 400 in one day last year in the ashes. Plenty of batting to come for the bangas so they should get 400. It's important that they bat as long as they can if they've got a chance. Pitch will turn on day 3 and...

    The Official 2006 AFL Thread

    That's a bit harsh. It's still early in the season. You don't win flags in round two. However, the swans were very ordinary. Leo Barry especially...he is really bad man on man. Lucky, tredrea wasn't playing... Anyway, it might be a tight one next week against Carlton..Barry will have his hands...

    Tutoring Colleges are Evil

    Tutoring colleges exist to EARN MONEY and students go to these colleges to get a high UAI and EARN MONEY Money makes the world go round. ALL CRIME exists because of MONEY (either a lack of it or a lust for it) Therefore MONEY IS the root of all EVIL

    The Official Cricket Thread 2006/2007

    Re: The Official Cricket Thread Whenever Australia lose there seems to be so much scrutiny But several things were evident 1) Australia rely on Mcgrath to tie down one end and that's why Lee is becoming the spearhead of the Australian attack if Lee doesn't strike at least twice in any spell...

    Harold and Kumar go to White Castle.. that's a journey, right??

    Firstly, if you want to score well in an AOS essay, choose sophisticated texts; if you choose a childish and crappy text like Harold and Kumar, it will not reflect anything good about yourself towards the marker's impressions. Choose good films, dramas are preferred. Secondly, use the word...

    criticise my syllabus summary!

    Basically, what Dreamerish posted is spot on but she's missing one thing: a chemical equation so you would use this equation in your answer as a supporting examplke and to illustrate that you have a firm knowledge of the topic. So cobalt-59 + neutron = cobalt-60 Very simple of course use...

    UNSW Medicine

    There are several possiblities If you were not offered medicine in the first round, it is likely that you might be offered a bonded medical place in the late round. However, if your only preference is for an unbonded place then if your ranking is high enough (that is higher than the ranking of...

    SYllabus dot point

    UGH..I hate that dotpoint. Basically you've got to describe all the forces (forces AND torque AND the net force) as the loop (rotor coil) rotates under the influence of a magnetic field. It's even more descriptions if they ask about the commutator as well... I'd draw pictures if that...

    Hey please read my essay and comment

    The journey leads to greater understanding *snore....* Such a popular question, I reckon it is quite easy Basically what the 05ers have suggested are valid. It is important if you want to get 14-15 to develop a THESIS and the best way to develop one is to define the terms ie what does "greater...

    what the definition of momentum

    Well really the conservation of momentum is a spinoff of Newton's 3rd law It is most applicable in collisions, there was a question (re apollo 13/newton) in last year's hsc paper basically about the conservation of momentum (but some people talked about slingshot effect) *rolls eyes* Actually...

    I like or am doing physics because...?

    It's amusing that Raginsheep mentioned dodgy marking schemes well I didn't attend NSB but my school marked in a very stingy manner. However the truth is this dodgy marking scheme is what HSC markers use!!! A raw mark in the HSC Physics paper of say 76 would be scaled up to a band six (about...

    any tips for 2006 phys students?

    hmmmm...I both agree and disagree with aural yes, physics is very good and u should have fun but no, it is not very easy (I might have said this somewhere else but here goes) i got 96 for phys last year 97 got you a state ranking *damn it* and I have a forewarning for all physics...

    ethanol as a fuel...(urgent!!!)

    I can see where you're coming from but the quote "officially abandoned" is wrong I don't know if you do physics but in last year's paper they had a question on assessing validity (and reliability) of secondary sources (so watch out chem students!) And what I have posted has assessed the...

    criticise my syllabus summary!

    I disagree...if this was a 4-5 mark question, 1-2 marks could be allocated for an outline (main features/definitions) of the Zeigler-Natta process. Just remember, write as muchas you can without repeating yourself

    ethanol as a fuel...(urgent!!!)

    Actually, that information is wrong as Conquering Chem 3rd edition is really outdated. The Brazil experiment is highly successful. Brazil is the leading exporter and producer of ethanol in the domain of alternative fuels. Brazil is the leader in using thanol as an alternative fuel and is miles...
