Re: Career Choices: What do you want to do in uni/tafe/the workforce? I think they were referring to studying dentistry at university, not the career itself. :)

But there's still the fact you need to complete 12 units in your preliminary year in order to obtain a UAI. Extensions don't really have a whole lot to do with it.

Actually, the myth that Standard gets scaled badly is just that: a myth. It scales exactly the same as Advanced does. It's harder and more uncommon to get a band 6 in Standard, because theoretically speaking if you're capable of achieving that you should be doing Advanced. Conclusion...

S1M0's signature has had me giggling like a fruitcake for like five minutes now. Today was my nothing day. Went to Starbucks first period for Business, taste-tested coffee and cakes and then got a free hot chocolate. Periods 2 and 3 were frees, so my friends and I started roughly planning our...

Everyone who voted Maths needs to GTFO. Right now. I voted Economics and Legal Studies. Economics, because it's the subject of sex, and Legal because I wanted to vote for more than one option just 'cause I could. lol @ typo

Re: 回覆: Re: subjects for yr 12 Computer says duh. Anyway, I appreciate the Australian education system on some level, so I hear what you're saying. It really depends on what mood I'm in. It's just that nine times out of ten, it's a "fuck school" kind of mood.

Re: 回覆: Re: subjects for yr 12 The only joy the HSC gives me at this stage is that it'll mark the end of high school. :) Still, good on you for being so positive and good-natured about it all.

Or what kind of car your family has. Even if I wanted to learn on a manual, I couldn't because our two cars are both autos.

lol. Seriously, I'm not pissed off at all. I don't take things personally or to heart here, cause that's just silly. It's just a discussion about tutoring, fer cryin out loud. that's the only reason why I was confused by your initial post, and am still kinda confused now.

Er, k. How am I worked up.....?

That is a whole different ball game, one I have acknowledged previously but am not referring to now. Irrelevant to my point. That you need to pay hundreds of dollars for tutoring in order to perfect any flaws you may have is bullshit, I'm sorry.

Fair enough. You know, I do believe tutoring is a waste of money if a student is not struggling with a subject and is capable of achieving excellent results without having to fork out $??? a week, and I am not going to apologize for this view. I mean, sure, it can give you an upper-hand...

Onya. That's what I did, and I haven't had any accidents...yet...

No, she's not failing. She's doing quite well actually. Remeber that we go to a selective school, so even then our 'bad' marks would probably be a lot better when compared to the rest of the state. No, she just hates our school and the competitiveness, so she's dropping out to attend the local...

In short: no. Just get your mom or dad to take you out to a car-park or isolated road, where they can teach you the basics (get you familiar with the brake/accelerator, reversing, turning, etc etc). I think it's more beneficial if you go to a driving instructor once you have a basic idea on how...

But if you're self-motivated, why do tuition? You're obviously smart enough and dedicated enough to your studies to still do well without it. Do you really think whatever benefit you may or may not gain from tutoring/coaching is worth all of the time and money you waste on it? Honest...

Another week of school. :(

Um, don't do tutoring, k. If you're not struggling with the subject it is just a waste of time, money and resources.

I think everyone can't wait until high school is over at this point. My mom keeps on insisting that I stop wishing my high school days away, 'cause they'll be the best years of my life, blahblahblah, and I'm like, "You never even went past Year 10, you have no idea!" I cannot wait until I'm out...

Aww, Tamara. I'm sorry. :( There must be something in the water, because I had a mini-breakdown yesterday. Except it had nothing to do with school, and I ran away to a toilet cubicle so I wouldn't have to be around my friends when it happened. Hope you got it all out of your system and...
