    Need help with a software assessment!

    Make up a software developer. One that 'supposedly' uses a particular kind of approach - maybe a hybrid approach, or something a tad different to your generic software development approaches as taught in the Software course - for this, I suggest WIKIPEDIA, and yep. Once you do that, you should...

    Help! Please

    Choose Ancient history! From what I've read of your situation, history seems the way to go. And any subject scales well if you do well in it! :D loll

    Does the school you go to REALLY count?

    If your cohort, for a certain subject, all ended up with some awesome HSC exam marks, then your assessment marks (and therefore overall HSC mark) will be awesome too - because your assessment mark comes from the HSC exam marks, assigned according to internal ranking (i'm pretty sure that's how...

    Modern History OR Software?

    Software is a pretty easy course. History is easier - but only if you know what to do with it. I can't say much for Modern, as I've never done it myself, but I'm assuming the exam is set out similarly to Ancient? In any case - if you think you can do both, go for it. If you want to only do one...

    Python question

    VB is the easiest one to learn/use. I'd suggest using VB - especially since you don't get marked on programming languages, at least not in the sense that, if you don't know how to program 'this to do this', you fail or anything! :D

    Is anyone doing or have done anything on spartan religion and festivals?

    Don't neglect your modern scholars either! loll If you want some excellent quotes and information - well I completed the 2007 Ancient History HSC exam, and it did involve a question on Spartan religion/religious festivals. So I'm largely confident in my notes on the topic :D What I can say is...

    sdd scaling

    If you can achieve a mid to high band 6, it shouldn't be a disadvantage... although it does scale rather poorly. My Philosophy Distinction Course mark of around 90/100 counted to my UAI instead of my 95/100 for Software Design and Development. But still - it won't drag you down, if you can...

    HELP with proposal

    BOS does set a word limit, if i recall... but in the end, it's not going to be sent to them. If your teacher is accepting of it, then that's all you need really. :)

    Classical music - culprit or concentration booster?

    Classical music is probably less distracting than normal music because it usually lacks vocals - i.e. you're less likely to sing along with it - and I don't know of many people who can sing along to a song AND memorise HSC syllabus notes all at the same time... It's probably best you listen to...
