That book is on my reading list. I watched the movie last month and thought it was amazing (it was also one of the few films that made me cry). So I won't go in blind per say, but I want to see how the book is compared to the movie.

At the moment I'm reading Tess of the D'Urbervilles by Thomas Hardy. He's a brilliant writer and I think the story is incredibly captivating albeit utterly tragic and depressing. My reading has been put somewhat put in hiatus because I've been trying to get myself organised for enrolment in uni...

If I felt like I was hunching over my work too much (a lot of the time it can't be helped), I would stop what I was doing and take a few minutes to sit upright with my shoulders back. I would lean back into my chair as well to help keep my back straight. In terms of stomach creases, maybe some...

That's a great help, thanks! I always knew there were a lot of career paths within Engineering, but it's amazing to think that you can have even more branches of water engineering, which is one of many types of engineering careers! I was wanting to do civil, but then water engineering piqued my...

Thank you so much for the insights! That was really helpful.

Hi there, Is there anyone here who can give some first-hand insights on water engineering ie. employability, future demand, work environment etc?

Yes, @Aeonium is correct in stating that two of your best English units will be calculated in your ATAR. Are you also doing SOR 1 as an accelerated unit? If not, then SOR 2 is technically 1 extra unit of study alongside the 1 unit course SOR 1, so if you keep all your other units in your senior...

Those Sharpies were my best friends during the HSC and helped me to come out with the ATAR I wanted. I'd definitely recommend them as well.

Thank you for your kind message, EM! Yes, I received an offer for my preferred course, which I'm extremely happy about. And congratulations to your son on his offer! Best wishes to you both, MJRey

It's all good. Yes, I think it could be partly due to the fact that most applicants think of going to USYD, UNSW or UTS because most people do their HSC in the Sydney region, therefore those universities as well as others would get more coverage. So universities like ANU, which are situated in...

I also applied for ANU through UAC and I didn't receive an offer today. I can confirm that they didn't participate in today's UAC offers, which can be seen through a link on UAC's website...

No worries. Your hypothesis on nominations was good.

Yeah, I guess that would be how they'd do it. But I'd still be happy with the fact I got an E4 even if I don't get in. Best of luck for all potential nominees for the showcase!

Can't believe the cut-off to change preferences is in two minutes... Best of luck to everyone next week with the first ATAR based offers!

That is a handy feature of digital note-taking, although from personal experience I handwrote all my notes. This was particularly good for English because all the quotes and concepts sunk into my brain better and I could think deeply about ways to interpret them without the temptation to rely on...

Includes notes on Module 8 Inquiry questions 2, 3 and 5. Bibliography included. DISCLAIMER: Feel free to use this to help you achieve the best you can in the HSC, but DO NOT plagiarise any part of my work whatsoever. You are only insulting yourself if you do.

Your Advanced Maths result is excellent, and so is your Engineering one. It's also impressive that you're coming 2nd in ME2 at the moment, although keeping it is a massive gamble from my perspective because ME2 can be quite difficult as evidenced by this year's paper. Scaling could work in your...

This multimodal script was praised highly, although my marker suggested I could have done a more in-depth analysis of Winston and Julia's relationship and how that in itself is a valuable human experience the Party seeks to destroy. DISCLAIMER: Feel free to use this to help you achieve the best...
