i did physics and maths, and didn't get anywhere

you better be prepared for uni chem in the test

 

[Inhuman]

I went for it last year... learnt almost nothing for it and scraped a Credit somehow
It's damn hard, you have to learn heaps of extra crap in your own time to do well

 

[Dangar]

Is it just a test that people take for fun? It's nothing to do with the HSC?

 

[mercury]

It is way superior than the HSC... but really, some of the stuff you'd have to learn for the HSC anyway.

 

[MyLuv]

Omg, I dont even know U have this kind of exam here Kool
If I knew ,I may have joined and maybe I can get sumthing( I got qualified last year for VietNam )

I think you need to be in year 11 to sit it.

you need a high HD to get into training camp

jm u go to baulko?
it doesn't matter what school.

skywalker; ppl in yr 10 can sit it. (and get in, for that matter)

it's very different to hsc-type stuff.. some of its' there, but it's based on uni material.

and yes... all the girls.. ENTER....~!!!!!! there was an outrageous majority of boys getting in last year (except for bio).*ahem.

edit: just remembered.. u can enter as long as ur not doing uni next year.

Mm, my bad. I meant you can't be in year 12 and sit for it.

 

[+:: $i[Q]u3 ::+]

yep yep soz.
(hmm... if nqe's for under yr 12s why is the thread in the hsc chem section... (???) ah well beats me)

 

[mercury]

you never know, there might be yr 12s willing to defer one year just to do the olympiad

otherwise, yeah, this shouldn't be in the hsc section... ah wellz =p

encouragement to all who's attempting.

and what sique's referring to by outrageous lil number of girl, she means, and i endorse it... it is unfortunate to see like 10 girls outa of what, 60 + ppl.

Therefore even more good luck to the girls doing it (if they happen to come across here...) !!!

Yes I know. I'm biased. I can't help it

 

[+:: $i[Q]u3 ::+]

well.. outrageous for phys and chem anyway.. the bio ppl had their thing going lol...
good luck guys... =)

 

[crazylilmonkee]

wtf is this?
training camp for chem?

 

[+:: $i[Q]u3 ::+]

it was about nqe for chem olympiad (tho why it's in this section is beyond me).. but they have all the camps together now... like.. at the same place.. at the same time..
