    Arts/Law vs International Relations/Law

    ANU introduced this major/minor degree structure for incoming 2012 students so it is a bit confusing. Most of the people here would have been enrolled prior to this change and so I'm just going off what's described on the StudyAt site. Whether you choose BA/LLB or BIR/LLB will depend on how...

    Accomodation!

    If you're after self-catered accommodation whether you get B&G or Fenner, it doesn't make that much of a difference considering their size (B&G slightly larger but both around 500ish). Both of these colleges have their own cultures and most people find they can find a group of people with whom...

    Thoughts on Bio exam??

    The question is only unfair because it does deal with the finer details of the eye that most textbooks have likely ignored. BUT it does still fall under the dot point that I keep referring to. Most of you have said that the core section was fairly easy. This question may have been included so...

    Thank you. I was hoping I didn't need to really spell it out to them.

    Thoughts on Bio exam??

    From my answer: "The foveola, in the centre of the fovea contains cone photreceptors that are much thinner than those that are located around this area" The fact they are thinner is a difference in structure. These thinner cones are located only in the foveola, the centre of the fovea. Cones...

    Thoughts on Bio exam??

    Goodness, if you can't read my answer I'm not going to ask how terribly you did in your English papers. My response a) Answers the question, b) Is related to a dot point, c) Is an application of that dot point. Please show me what you would have written if my answer is so flawed?

    Thoughts on Bio exam??

    Okay if you want to play specifics here's take two: The cones in the retina are more densely located in the fovea, interspersed with rod photoreceptors. The foveola, in the centre of the fovea contains cone photreceptors that are much thinner than those that are located around this area. This...

    Thoughts on Bio exam??

    My answer: The two main photoreceptors that are located in the human eye are the rods, responsible for the detection of light and cones, responsible for the ability to see colour. The rods are uniformally distributed across the retina of the eye, located at the back of the eye. The uniform...

    Thoughts on Bio exam??

    Your first question addresses this dot point: describe the differences in distribution, structure and function of the photoreceptor cells in the human eye Without seeing the actual diagram, I would think that your other question would be testing either: Identify neurones as nerve cells that...

    Dropping subject: Chemistry or Physics ?

    Here's what I think: Physics isn't that much more helpful for 3/4U maths. Sure it introduces you to the concept of vectors, but they are treated in physics and mathematics is slightly different. Also, I found there to be a lot more of the historical developments/social implications in physics...

    Related belonging text help

    In general, it is better to have as variety of text types. I don't remember the exact wording of the syllabus, but there is something in there about having read/analyse/appreciate the wide range of text types. Of course, if you think that you can only find two novels/films etc that are able to...

    Sum of an Arithmetic Series help required!

    You need to use the formula to find the sum of an arithmetic series with n terms. Substitute n and the final value of the sum into the formula for the two conditions. This will form two simultaneous equations that you can then solve for a, the first term, and d, the common difference.

    Conflicting Perspectives !!!! Related Text

    I don't think I remember anyone in my year group using it last year, but I have seen it mentioned many times on BOS as a related text. Deducement: Yes, overly used as a related text.

    This sheeyat is really pissing me off! Plz HELP

    As Toranilor has said, you do need to include a few sentences on what you plan to discuss in this essay. Also,what is the composer's viewpoint on the personality/event/situation and how is this shown through the conflicting perspectives of it? In other words, what techniques have the composers...

    This sheeyat is really pissing me off! Plz HELP

    The reason why I have told people to go back and read the book is because no one has demonstrated any understanding of what is expected of them for this essay question. There have been no appropriate quotes to which we may be able to discuss, nor have you any points for BOS users to elaborate...
