D: Me no good with logic gates anyway. Although I'd quite like to get better with them. :(

Will indeed have fun. :P Although economics can get pretty dry at times. Have fun with yours, SDD especially - I remain forever jelly. Can't say I'm envious of some of the fluffier stuff in SDD, but the coding and algorithms - definitely.

Re: Official BOS Study Meat v2.0 It's the National Computer Science Summer School, essentially what its name suggests :) A programming camp for 10/11 days at the University of Sydney. Is glorious. I've gone twice. And they also hold the NCSS Challenge, an equally glorious programming event -...

I'm studying! :D And, er, interspersing it with amounts of engaging activities. (where engaging activities != studying D: )

Thanks! Would rep, but...already done. :P

Re: Official BOS Study Meat v2.0 If you do I'll give an awkward hi to you, just like at NCSS :P

That's true, although in terms of advice it's not too helpful at the moment to tell us that the HSC is relatively nothing. (eek, word mush)

Straight forward? There are a lot of subjects whose content isn't so straight forward (4U maths comes to mind immediately, and 4U english doesn't exactly sound like a walk in the park, and...so many other subjects). Additionally, "no need to stress" is similar (although not the same as) telling...

Gotcha, leaped at the chance to make it into a meme, sorry. Why's it skewed like that? (or did I miss something?)

So I made this, but realised afterward that it didn't agree with that you said. And that I'm not sure that it makes sense. But here it is anyway (I'm tired, okay): Edit: decided to put this in one whole post rather than two. This. It works magnificently. Currently I do maths homework as...

Wow, this is a really late reply and so will probably be useless but in the case that anyone else has the same issues... http://codepad.org/V6s8SLj2 (disclaimer - I haven't tested the code, I don't have access to an interpreter/'nix machine at the moment.)

If I've heard correctly, reliability of a piece of information is evaluated by comparing it with other sources - if it agrees with other sources, then it's reliable, but not necessarily valid. Validity, not entirely sure. :( Sorry!

The BOS has put up a few (okay, more than a few) sample objective-response (aka multiple choice) questions - http://www.boardofstudies.nsw.edu.au/syllabus_hsc/pdf_doc/maths-ext-1-2-support-assess-2012.pdf

So I've done a) and b) - sorry about having not written it up in LaTeX!

Agreed :( And also because the minimum wage is lower for under-18s. Still not 17 yet. ;-;

Like others have said...I write notes so I can hopefully retain some of that information that I've written down. I've found it helps a lot :D (for IPT it helped a lot...that said, I made a lot of notes.) Additionally I have paper lying around and it feels sad because it's not being used, so I...

I want to get a part-time job, make some money (I like money :D). Then at night...GAME TIME!

I got a mark of 96 last year for IPT, and it scaled to 45.4/50. If that's helpful to know. :)

Re: 2012 HSC MX2 Marathon Would it be possible to see your working? :) I'm having trouble with the question.

For one, all the texts you're discussing need to be introduced in the introductory paragraph (as well as mentioned in the conclusion). Also, the inclusion of the Cell Block Tango doesn't make a lot of sense. It doesn't contribute to an overall point and doesn't appear to be relevant - from my...
