    Studies of Religion Sample Responses

    Hey guys. I did my SORI exam last year because I took it as an accelerated course. It was my favourite subject and I had the best time doing it :) I got a band 5 with a mark of 42 (out of 50). We studied the core topics, Buddhism and Judaism. I bought my responses from BOS and have them on...

    More prelim help?

    Sorry guys, I just really need help with this stuff and don't know where else to ask. - the equation of the latus rectum of a parabola is given by y=-3. The axis of the parabola is x=0, and it's vertex is (0,0). Find the length of the focal chord that meets the parabola at (2, -1/3). Just need...

    Some Prelim help, please?

    Thanks, I actually did midpoint but didn't get as far as the equation. - a circle has centre C(-1,3) and radius 5 units. - equation: x^+2x+y^-6y-15=0 - the line 3x-y+1=0 meets the circle at two points. Find their coordinates. (abs values?) - let coordinates be x and y, where y is the...

    Some Prelim help, please?

    Thank you! Some more.. Oh by the way these are between a friend and myself, only asking questions neither of us can get (or finish). - Given two points A(2,-5) and B(-4,3), find the equation of the circle with diameter AB. We got the length of AB which gave us diameter and radius, but we don't...

    Some Prelim help, please?

    thank you One more in this exercise: If R is the fixed point (3,2) and P is a movable point (x,y) find the equation of the locus of P if the distance PR is twice the distance from P to the line y=-1

    Some Prelim help, please?

    Thank you both. More questions I can't figure out: - find the equation of the locus of a point that moves so it is equidistant from the line 4x-3y+2=0 and 3x+4y-7=0. Similarly, - find the equation of the locus of a point that moves so it is equidistant from the line 3x+4y-5=0 and 5x+12y-1=0...

    Some Prelim help, please?

    Firstly need some help with the topic Parabola and the Locus - Find the equation of the locus of point P(x,y) that moves so that it is equidistant from the x axis and the u axis. - find the equation of the locus of a point that moves so it's distance from the line 3x+4y+5=0 is always 4 units...

    Just a little excitement..

    I just finished the grade eleven part of my accelerated 1yr SORI course! I'm now officially in grade 12 in Studies of Religion, and coming first :D Question: it's the grade 12/HSC year assignments etc that count towards the HSC/ATAR, right?

    4 Unit English

    I'd love to do EE2, but I have no idea what I'd do. A recent set text in Adv Eng was a verse novella about mental illness - something like that would be amazing for me to do. I love poetry. But a lot of people warn away from poetry. Because it doesn't have an obvious structure I guess. What...

    Extension Math and English

    So I know a LOT of you take both extension math and English. My XEng class originally had 10 people, and math had about 20, but only myself and two other people were doing both extensions. Math has dropped to about 18 and those other two people both dropped English extension (as well as some...

    Accelerated Subjects

    Ah yes. My dance teacher is also a science/religion teacher (weird mix I know) and she teaches at a boys school. She says that the only time the boys drop/start in Catholic studies is if they aren't really doing well in religion or don't feel competent enough.

    Dropouts, class sizes, X classes and predictions :)

    In extension subjects (only) at our school we get N awards for <40%, I'm assuming because extension is something people take up as an 'extra' and you are meant to put in effort (as in any subject). If someone is failing a higher class, they would be expected to move down. It's always worked that...

    Dropouts, class sizes, X classes and predictions :)

    Hey :) So I was wondering about class numbers and dropouts, in particular for extension (usually smaller classes) and accelerated subjects where you'd be doing the hsc exam this year. What were the starting class sizes? How many people have dropped so far? How many people do you predict will...

    Accelerated Subjects

    Awesome! Somebody else :) The only difference is, anyone could pick this course at my school, as long as they knew what they were in for. We didn't start last year, so we only have three terms to do it. We had one dropout after like two lessons, but since then we've been left with a class of...
