Yeah I read that post before making this thread. I don't know what to do anymore. English is really failing me right now... Also, I have a new english extension teacher who is very skilled and has plenty of experience (taught at ruse in 2011) who gave us a perfect essay structure in class and...

Does anyone know the characteristics of a 'bad' english teacher in relation to how they teach, and advice and feedback they give? I am really questioning my English Advanced teacher - she tells us that she had over 9 years of experience in the course but usually during class we only do research...

There would be plenty of drama if Ruse fell down from 1st in the State, but I don't see that happening in the near future unless they have a horrible cohort (even weaker than 2011 - no offence) and the school overtaking it (most likely a selective school) has an extremely strong cohort. Also...

I am planning to accomplish to get some sleep! And also I will read my English Advanced novel (Brave New World), do maths topics (Calculus to the physical world, inverse functions), do some Physics (electrical energy in the home) and I have to do Studies of Religion to refresh myself with the...

To be honest I doubt all James Ruse people who even do Extension 2 English and get band sixes are really passionate about it, or even a little.. that's what my Extension English Teacher said and she used to teach at Ruse But I think I can pull off the band 6 in English although it is an arduous...

Well wouldn't they seem ridiculous the first time you do them right??? Just saying... I haven't got a taste of Ext 2 Graphs yet

LOL my username sounds cocky... I know haha

Hmm... where do you think a RAW mark 45/50 in Studies of Religion align to? And also, what RAW mark will allow me to get a low band 6 in English Advanced and English Extension 1? I don't know if I will get these marks, but how hard do the HSC markers mark it? I mean, since it's so hard to get a...

No seriously I had a taste of Ext 1 HSC maths myself... I did some sets of max/min problems with graphs that involve ridiculous hyperbolas with questions like sketching: x-2/x-7 for instance (This was with my tutor). And seriously, I got most of them right which is about 9/10... so no, I have...

History - Modern History Science - Physics Social Science - Business Studies Btw you may have noticed I do Geography, a social science... I am dropping it in Yr 12 since I never picked it initially and was forced between Geography, IPT, and Multimedia :(

Yes it is the externals. Also, my level of maths (in comparison with James Ruse) would be most likely in the top 40% of their mathematics cohort as I am coming first in my school (ranked 79), but I'm not really sure if this is correct. However, my school has been ranked in mathematics...

All of these marks are RAW marks: English Adv - 85/100 English Extension 1 - 42/50 Maths Extension 1 - 92/100 Maths Extension 2 - 90/100 Physics - 88/100 Modern History - 87/100 Studies of Religion I - 45/50 I am extremely strong at maths and I'm assuming I will get those Maths marks if I...

These are the possible sizes of the people in my course for Yr 12 (I am currently Yr 11): English Adv - 50 Maths Ext 1 - 20 Maths Ext 2 - 8 Physics - 25 Modern History - 20 Here is some facts about me that can help you approximate my ranks: I am mostly in the top 3 in maths in the whole...

I really need help identifying this language technique in Othello: Please help me out! "Ay, let her rot, and perish, and be damned to-night; for she shall not live" (Act 4, Scene 1, Lines 174-176) OR This is the whole quote (I only want to use a bit of it so I don't have a long quote)...

Journeys, and it is purely an Othello-based essay, not a comparative study two or more texts.

Hey guys, I am wondering what are the best and successful methods to studying for a mostly generic Othello essay which will be circulated in two weeks? I believe mostly themes, characters and language is very significant in the essay (including importance quotes). Also, what kinds of generic...

Hey man, nope I'm reading for advanced in term 3 :p For ext 1 we're analysing High Noon as a revenge tragedy genre and it's pretty good

Say for example, I get 1st in my cohort for maths (2 unit) and I get 100 in my HSC, do I get a state rank?

I realised when I was sleepy I was making more mistakes when I did some Integration problems. When I realised it was wrong, I looked back to find silly mistakes... I have an exam on Wednesday next week. What steps should I take the day before the exam on Wednesday.

What if I did it this way? English Advanced - 10/50 English Extension - 5/15 Mathematics Extension 1 - 1/20 people approx Mathematics Extension 2 - 1/8 people approx Physics - 3/25 people approx Modern History - 2/23 people approx What ATAR could that indicate? These are my aims...
