    getting 99

    This is true, you're not even close to being top at english at a relatively poorly ranked school. And thoth1 why the hell do you think he'll state rank at ext2... he may very well be coming 1st by being the only one in his class.

    Exam Technique

    Okay, i'm sorry for being mean to you! And everyone seems to be on your side anywayyy. In the least arrogant way possible, i was just legit surprised because i think i have something close to photographic memory, so this has never been a problem for me, conversely, I always have way too much...

    Exam Technique

    Are you for real, that sounds so retarded... When you're in an exam, nothing is going to help you come up with anything new, except for what's already in your head. So the obvious thing to do is to answer the question as best you can instead of wasting time skipping them all? If they're longer...

    Simple Harmonic Motion --> Trouble understanding velocity expressions -- help needed!

    Re: Simple Harmonic Motion --> Trouble understanding velocity expressions -- help nee They are both expressions for velocity, but one is expressed in terms of x (displacement), and one is expressed in terms of t (time). So yes, depending on what information you have, the velocity can be worked...

    UTS BAcc vs UNSW Co-op (Accounting)

    Well atm I'm probablly going to do a cadetship > uts bacc Unsw coop doesn't seem worth applying for, because although I might do uts bacc cos of the reduced time in uni whilst getting work experience, if I'm going to spend 4 years at uni, I might as well go with a cadetship and have a properly...

    UTS BAcc vs UNSW Co-op (Accounting)

    Most people here would probably tell you unsw, because unsw is extremely well known for commerce, but at the end of the day, at uts you're still getting a decent degree, and you finish an entire year earlier, still have 1 full year of work experience under your belt, and are already earning a...

    Teachers - can they ace the HSC?

    CSSA ext 1 was pretty easy, much easier than a lot of hsc papers i've done... And yeah, there are exceptional maths freaks who get full marks, but as a teacher you're not expected to perform well in exams, your purpose is to know the concepts and teach them well.

    Another scaling q

    ATAR calculator will only give you your aligned marks as done by the bos, not the scaling as done by uac. In low scaling subjects you will need to perform relatively much better to the rest of the cohort compared to scoring a decent mark in a subject that scales well. Eg, (not completely true...

    Teachers - can they ace the HSC?

    Why not? Even the best maths students will make careless mistakes, so why would a teacher be expected to make absolutely none? My teacher set our trial and said he made around as many careless mistakes as i did when he was doing his own paper.
