i received mine yesterday. oh. my. god. is anyone else BRIGHT YELLOW in their photo? not just a little yellow. i'm talking really yellow. my skin is fucking pee-coloured. i'd be okay with it if everybody else's turned out that way too, but for some reason i think i'm just lucky.

It wasn't the best but I was expecting sooo much worse. At this rate, I could pull a band six! :) Thank god for Themistocles.

i) Show that for all values of m, the line y = mx - 3m^2 touches the parabola x^2 = 12y. Can someone explain this one to me? I know how to do it, I just don't understand why... Thanks. :)

Okay... thanks! Good luck with the exam. :) I, for one, am screwed.

But if they ask us a question on political life, we'd be expected to know the the roles of the duumviri and the aediles, right? I have that information, but I don't know if I can trace it back to specific sources... I mean, would "This comes from inscriptions" be sufficient?

What sources do we have as evidence for the political life in P&H? I'm under the impression that it's mainly epigraphic sources... should we try to remember inscriptions word for word?

Waaait a minute. You mean it was asking you to account for the religious landscape overall, rather than account for the changes indicated in the source (ecumenism, as it turns out) exclusively? Oh my god... I'm fucking stupid. But that's good 'cause I'll actually get marks for talking about...

Okay, so I blabbered on about denominational switching in the entire space provided, because, frankly, I didn't get the question. But I knew that was wrong, so as an afterthought, I wrote, "Ecumenism has grown because churches want greater unity and a joint voice on matters. Also immigration...

Is anyone else gonna risk it and just focus on the Persian Wars? I don't think I have any choice at this point... :s

Ancient History as a subject is way too big. It makes me want to cry. At this point I think I'll have to study only one section of the syllabus and hope to god it comes up in the exam.

Okay, I'm intrigued. Where can you buy them?

Got it. Thank you!

From the Coroneos textbook. 18. i) A particle is moving along the x-axis. At time t, it is distant x from 0 and moving with velocity v = dx/dt. Show that the acceleration dv/dt = v. dv/dx. ii) The acceleration of a body moving in a straight line is proportional to the velocity, i.e. dv/dt =...

I'm repeating the HSC this year, I guess. I dropped out of school last year, partly due to chronic illness, but largely because the UAI I'd have graduated with would have been severely below what I would deem acceptable. It's been a god awful year but hopefully in a couple of months time I'll...

For the area of study, is it necessary that your supplementary texts be in a different medium to the prescribed text? Does this mean that all three of the texts you analyse for your AoS essay must be in different media? Where is this stated?

Of course grades indicate a kind of intelligence. You don't get a perfect UAI or TES without native intelligence. You just don't. Perhaps they're not the best indicators, but they certainly tell you something.

Self-tuition will allow you to sit this year's HSC in every subject but the three sciences (as far as I'm aware) so long as you've completed the School Certificate, and obtain a UAI from your results. No internal assessments, but you're completely on your own. And I thought OTEN offered...

What about OTEN, or self-tuition?

Damn, that does suck. I assume you were considering redoing those subjects as a means of getting into uni? What are your plans now, if you don't mind me asking?

Did your timetable turn out okay? I had to drop a couple of subjects I'd wanted out of sheer inconvenience, but I can deal, I guess. Meh. Tafe starts in two days!
