I wonder how many people would be there... coz I'm like the only person who applied in my school and I asked some friends from other schools, and they haven't even heard about this workshop

I'm going, but it doesn't seem too popular at my school either, I guess most people were put off by that 1-page statement...

Jazz Man Tim, bowed crotales are just normal crotales used in percussion music, but played with a bow... and it gives a really clear sound

some people say specialising is good coz you use the same way of thinking, and if you're good at one subject, then you're normally good at the others as well... personally i think that doing subjects that are totally different would allow you to get away from doing the same thing all the...

You don't actually need 8 extra hours of study per week to pass... A lot of people do way less than that (i.e. less than 2 hours per week) and still manage to get >90% Fruitcake05, I'd say if you're pretty good at maths, it's worth doing because at least it'll make your 3u count as two...

Well, in my class of 23, we have 10 girls. Provided with the fact that only about 30 - 40% of the grade are girls, that's actually quite a lot. There's also another 4u class at my school, though I dunno whether they have this many girls or not...

perhaps slap pizz, Bartok pizz, bowing on the tailpiece, scratching on the strings with fingernails, slamming with fingers (left hand) on the strings without bowing, double- or triple-stopping etc? I play the double bass, but can't think of more from the top of my head... Will add more later...

Kieran, are you in Hayes' class right now? or are you still having Niven? coz Hayes' class is like way ahead (well, or it might just be my class being really behind) we've just kind of finished polynomials yesterday we haven't started with conics yet, coz our teacher's away i suppose...

this year I'm doing: English Adv Maths Ext 1 Maths Ext 2 Music 2 (elective composition) Music Ext (musicology) French Continuers French Ext i thought it'd be a lot of work, but when year 12 really started i realised how bludgy these subjects are :uhhuh:

USyd Haven't decided whether I should do Liberal Studies (International) or Arts (Languages) yet, coz it seems like I could do the same stuff in both degrees I'm planning to major in French Studies, Psychology, and either Italian or Music

if by saying "overseas" you mean going to the States, then the liberal studies degree would definitely be recognised, because it's a 4-year degree course... certain other countries offer liberal studies degrees, so i suppose it'll be recognised as well as far as arts is concerned, i've heard...

I'm thinking of doing either psychology or neuroscience but I think I'm more on the psychology side, juz coz the career outcomes are better... and that way I still get to do similar subjects at the moment I'm thinking of doing research work after I finish the degree, but I think it's always...

French ext assessment is on Wed arvo... juz wondering whether I should watch the whole film twice or concentrate on the 2 extracts, and watch'em like three times each coz i know there would be at least one question about how a theme is presented in the film as a whole...

my 1st French ext assessment is coming up... and it's on extract 1 and 2 does anyone have notes on these 2 extracts? or got any advice on how to study for extension? :confused: [[edit: whoops! juz realised that i forgot to mention that I'm doing Marius et Jeannette...]]

I'm doing musicology both for my 2u elective and for extension... I've already decided on the topic for 2u, but still thinking which one to choose for extension. What I think is, in extension the teacher wouldn't be of much help, coz you gotta do all the research youself anyway You should...

Well, I've done ABRSM theory up to grade 8 I find it rather useful when it comes to aural and musicology stuff in Music 2 Coz when I did grade 8 I had to read a lot of books about different periods and the key composers, and I did heaps of score analysis - which teaches you heaps about harmony...
