How are you gonna get your HSC results? (1 Viewer)

[melsc]

I signed up for SMS but I'll probably use the net too...just that i dont wanna be running around screaming 'the net is down' or 'the site is down' at 6am and have no alternative

Where's the carrier pigeon option?

Receiving your hsc results seems far too...sacred?...to get it by sms lol. It's like a ritual that needs to be done properly

 

[falltopieces]

of course by internet .

 

[Revolution]

SMS all the way

internet.
i dont trust my mobile not to delete it accidently or even not receive it.
with internet i can choose what time i want to look at my results.
i dont want to have to wait for someone to read my marks out to me by phone either.
i wish we could get them by mail.

It seems that by sms, you only get your full mark and band. Yet by internet you shall get assesment mark, exam mark, HSc mark and band. So, even those getting results by sms will need to go on the net. But, my results by sms will determine WHEN i get these results. If it is good, I will go on straight away, if not, i will buy 4, no, 5 packets of timtams and then go on!

The sms will also determine if i get up all happy at 6, ready for the day, or if i close my curtains and sleep for the rest of the day. lol.


then of course there is the dreaded UAI.

We do get results by mail on the 20th. At least thats what it says on the letter i got. Correct me if im wrong.

 

[ghostofme]

na ur right.....mail by 20th

but i dont think i could survive that long

i'll be sitting at the computer with my mobile phone at 6:00am getting results from both those sources

 

[Shell]

i think just the internet for me. screw getting it by SMS. eeek

 

[Dom Dom]

Internet

i got my letter today aswell i think i'll go by the internet, i wouldn't be able to bring myself to delete and sms message with my results in it and going over the phone is just annoying...i'll wait til like 1pm and then go on the net maybe it won't be too jammed...as if! I just want the results so i vote go by the net...

option 1- By phone: this will be frustrating, having someone read out ur results... No way!

option 2 - sms: I use my phone for emergencies, recieving a message at 6:00 am with my HSC results isnt much of an emegency!... althought i may need medical assistance after i see my results!

option 3 - Internet... this is prolly the best choice

but be warned, especially if u have cable, the marks just pop up right infront of ur face... its freaky, so this year i plan to place a sheet of paper on the screen until it loads, and carefully and slowly slide the paper down the page to view my results one by one!...

but if my first mark is good i'll prolly be too excited and just throw the paper away...

haha, yeh im using the internet. and i'll be covering up the results with a solitaire game or minesweeper or sumthing, and pulling it down slowly to look at my marks one by one.

phone is dumb, and sms is too fast.

I suggest we all do what the 2004 class did last year, and stay up all night until 6am.

thats my plan...I will sit in a dark room, rocking backwards and forwards, clutching my phone and refreshing periodically

hahaha, that's a thought. However, i was thinking of just waking up at about 5am, then goin on to my comp. And, i'll take like an hour to look at my results, because i'll be too nervous to look at them all at once. One at a time, slow and steady...

 

[roadcone]

i'm going to be on schoolies (the cruise), so my plan is to sign up to get them by sms and then when we come back into mobile phone range (apparently last year this occured at approx 2am in the morning) they will pop up to me. i am talking 2am on the morning of the 17th.

 

[CoFFee BreAk]

Definitely the internet. I could get a heart attack when the sound of my cell phone gives me a morning call, and then I notice there's a new sms, notifying me of the results. I'd die right away. Yikes!

 

[Libbster]

prob sms because most likely, the internet will be clogged up

lmao... so true..
as for me, internet... i can just imagine myself hearing this ominous beeping sound only to find like a set of shitty numbers staring straight at my face...
and its so less auspicious...

I say we stay up all night on BoS placing bets on who'll get the highest results, then at 6am make fun of anyone who gets a band 4.

 

[PaleReflection]

I bet I get band 4 for modern
