Computing skills Maths Science Geography History English English...RAWR I wish I could drop it :( Computing skills is a joke, I mean, look at this: If the mouse is moved in the direction of the arrow, what would be the new position of the pointer on the screen? You could do that if you've...

YES. I love this thread. I love cheese. I tried Blue Vein...it's alright, it just looks a bit funny :p Most other cheeses: MASSIVE DROOL. Maybe cottage cheese is a bit blergh. Cheesecake, anyone? :)

Oh, OK, so it's based on rankings as well as marks. Thanks. How much of it is ranking though, because isn't the final mark calculated on 50% school assessment and 50% HSC mark? And a part of the school assessment would be ranking or something...

Why does the same mark scale better in standard, if it is easier to obtain that mark? :confused:

But shouldn't Advanced students get a scaling advantage due to a harder course?

"Trollin' since birth" :rolleyes:

Wow, I read through this and I'm pretty confused. =/ So what are the benefits of doing advanced or the benefits of doing standard if standard is easier and they are scaled the same? My English marks aren't great, if I work hard I can get above average. (It's compulsory for us to do...

Re: are people who are both handed tend to be smarter? Me too :) Leftie for writing/drawing and rightie for most other things O_O; Maybe because they make everything for right-handed people. Oh well, these skills come in handy for typing and piano :D

Huh, what reasons?

Re: are people who are both handed tend to be smarter? Yep. Hard work helps you achieve in life, but it does not necessarily make you more intelligent. Yes, you can work hard, but genes are a major factor. (I think.)

The thing is, the current English course focuses on literature and the like, which to me are not essential life skills. Of course, I probably wouldn't be saying this if I actually did well in English :p Grammatical skills, punctuation, spelling...they aren't difficult, but essay/analysis...

Re: are people who are both handed tend to be smarter? I'm guessing that using both hands will stimulate both sides of the brain, thus more efficiency or something similar. Interesting discussion here...

Hai Liz...too bad because you know the nature of asian parents... No UAI aim as of yet...no idea what courses I'd like to do. I'll just try to get as high as I can, hmm :rolleyes:

Cool, I'll add you sometime after my yearlies. When was the last time you used them though? Because their whitelist is highly unlikely to let through any proxies.

PHP proxies = blocked Google cache - I use that, but they aren't as recent and also no logging in/interactivity. TAFE account - now that would be interesting....

I heard Excel study guides weren't very comprehensive, but I don't know. Try searching for something related to textbooks using the search tool?

Ahaha, yeah, overseas is a great way to get resources :rolleyes: Though obviously you can't go there whenever you need a textbook... There's always other trackers...but I liked textbooktorrents.

And it was! There wasn't as many Aus. resources, but it was still great. Anyone want to form a replacement? :p

Two days ago isn't old news. Anyway, I only discovered it today :( (I think you're thinking about the temporary offline back in July, but it's permanently off now! :()
