    Rank

    What if say you're an outlier and get 40% for your internals whilst the rest of the cohort/class are receiving 50%+ with the second lowest mark being at 50% and the average being 65%. Will this affect the outliers 40% mark?

    Need help with Mechanics

    I'm struggling with Mechanics, a lot. Up until this point I have yet to grasp the concepts involved in the topic. I'm even struggling to do the Mechanic questions in Q3/4 of the HSC papers. I think my problem is I'm failing to understand where these 'formulas' 'equations' are coming from...

    CSSA Economics 2012

    I blanked out about Australia's BOP. Actually I didn't really have much on it prepared anyways but I didn't have much on China either. I figured about half way through my BOP essay that I could have wrote a much better essay with the other question on China rather than the BOP essay I was...

    Gym/Weight lifting Rollcall!

    In the end, high bar and low bar really comes down to preferences though and what you're back/spine is more comfortable with although each form has their own benefits and disadvantages. From my experience, low bar squatters are exactly as Lolsmith said, those with back problems so they prefer to...

    Question about the HSC trials

    Hypothetically speaking, if they weren't apart of your assessment mark then they wouldn't count towards anything. But that's certainly not the case anywhere, I'd assume.

    What are the chances (percentage) that 3D TRIG will come out in CSSA trials math ext.

    Re: What are the chances (percentage) that 3D TRIG will come out in CSSA trials math Wouldn't it be easier to just say whether you think 3d trig will be in the CSSA trial exam for Ext 1? Personally, I don't think there will be.

    CSSA Trials: English AOS Paper 1

    I did creative->short answer->essay as well. Unfortunately I spent too much time on my creative, so I had to rush the short answer to get to my essay on time.

    Quick question on Creative writing! (english)

    A side question here. Do markers mark you based on your ability to write about that stimulus? i.e. the stimulus is an image of a burger, would that burger have to play a crucial role in the creative story? or would it be sufficient enough to only mention it a few times, with the burger having a...
