Best: Maths Worst: Physics

Re: What UAI are you aiming for? Well, congrats on the marks man! :) Anyway, I reckon you could be looking to get about high 80s to low 90s. (And I see your school is ranked 560. I took it into account) ie 87 - 93 However, you might just want to watch how you perform on your major...

GPA - Grade Point Average. It's an average range of the marks you get for a particular course. eg. between 70-85 is a distinction I think. I'm not too sure. Is it necessary? Most probably. You're going to have to stand out and be the most "attractive" (i use the word loosely) applicant to...

If you're a slightly above average student as you say you are, I'd recommend economics. I think you'd enjoy the challenge that the course offers, as business studies is a pretty basic, plug-and-play type of subject.

Harsh or not (sorry if I'm blunt) but runnable's got it pretty accurate I think.

In short, the point you're trying to make/prove in an essay.

Eco - is very applicable to real life. The main reason people think it's harder than most other HSIE subjects is because the terminology and concepts are realistically speaking, harder to grasp. Legal - An otherwise straightforward subject, providing you do the stuff. it's useful in the sense...

I did The Truman Show in year 10. If you can tell me some of your related themes or stuff you have to cover, I might be able to match it with the texts that I got. If it's related to advertising, superficial stuff, I can help for sure then. I got a poem, a book and something else. I think it...

I do both, (though I might not be an '08er, but I still study). I do syllabus dot points. Revise them for about 3-5 days. Then I do a past paper. Whatever i get wrong, I go to the appropriate section in my notes, I'll study that til I know it. Then I'll collect the parts I need to study, and...

Thought it'd be easier to separate my post. Historical context: ahh... doesn't really have that much in Polanski does it? Cultural influences: ehehe I seem to have literally 0 notes on Polanski... ahh just remembered. Something about Polanski's wife being killed by some Manson guy. Charlie...

Ok, now that I just digged up my old English book. Historical influences: MacBeth was written during the transfer in monarch between the Elizabethan and Jacobean periods (Jacob was Scottish, hence the use of a Scottish King as a reference to the historical context). Cultural influences...

A chord of contact is the line in between the parabola that touches points Q & P.

I better scratch this. I stayed up til 6am on Tuesday night. I got 1 hour of sleep, and was fine throughout the whole day. Trust me on this. It's the day after that you feel crap. Remind me: never do that again.

I've done The World Communicates, Moving About and I'm about 75-80% done with Electricity.

I was given something similar, but for English. Basically, look up, engage everyone's attention, act like the boss. And make sure they know it. Use words everyone understands. For formulas, I'd suggest wriing the whole thing out on the board in big writing. Then write down what each component...

LOL, gotta love the way you asked ;). Cute. Marks would make determining it easier. But I reckon you could be looking at about 86-92. Maybe just bumping up that Adv English a little to say 10th would ensure you get over that 90 barrier I think.

Ok, 82.5-87.5 I think.

Ok!! My bad, James Ruse? I'll fix the rankings (sorry, I didn't know...): English Advanced 40/169 English Ext. 1 40/130 Mathematics 50/169 Mathematics Ext. 1 50/157 Agriculture (HSC currently) 20/61 Chemistry 50/152 Modern History 8/19 Visual Arts 5/9 Whoa, any how, I reckon...

Honestly, you don't need to worry too much about uni while you're picking subjects. Sure by all means, pick up the ext 2 maths, chem, physics... they're the ones you'll come across in the science course @ uni. Since you want to do sound enginerring and composing? Sounds a bit like a music...

I think ideally you'll need to be getting something that looks like this: English Advanced 4/169 English Ext. 1 5/130 Mathematics 5/169 Mathematics Ext. 1 5/157 Agriculture (HSC currently) 3/61 Chemistry 5/152 Modern History 1/19 Visual Arts 1/9 But this is an assumption I made...
