    Why do the students who go to the best schools get the best marks?

    Is this not largely motivated by the school/area you belong to? this 'drive' and 'desire' despite being a personal reaction, seems like its heavily influenced by peers, teachers, parents, etc... Would you say than (on average), a student at Ruse has the same 'drive' as a student at a school...

    Carbon Pricing

    Oh, look at that...another BOS poll that is completely dominated by conservative bullshit...how original. Let's get the facts straight: http://www.abc.net.au/unleashed/2794652.html "Families earning more than $110k will feel the pain of the carbon tax," warned the Herald-Sun, straightfaced...

    Why do the students who go to the best schools get the best marks?

    I think OP was actually asking... "If I go to a better school, why am I more likely to succeed than had I gone to a poorer school", rather than "why do smart kids go to smart schools". I'd definitely say it has something to do with the social and parental influence. However, teacher efficiency...

    Inclass moments

    It might be funny...I just dont understand it :S If Euthanasia it's administered by some kind of poison, its possible (albeit unlikely) to survive...The equivalent would be to write a book called "I survived being shot". Edit: Also, my humour doesnt find this quote funny either: [after he had...

    Inclass moments

    Your class sounds seriously horrible :| I dont get it...Is there any context as to why this is funny? It does remind me of an inside joke between a few friends and I. Outside our history classroom is a bunch of pictures of various scenes/events. One picture features a bunch of Chinese kids...

    The date major work is due?

    It's my teacher's first year teaching the subject but we've been completely separating the subject in half. We have 4 lessons a fortnight, so since term 2 year 12 we've had 1 lesson a week on the case study and one lesson on the historians (prior to this was all historian work). I dont mind the...

    How long (and personal) is your major work journal?

    My major work journal is looking pretty good (just passed ~300 pages), but it isnt very personal. That is to say that I've been including sources and drafts of my essay, but havent really used it as a diary to record my thoughts and stuff... How are your journals going?

    Critical analysis name help

    We have to title our works? If you're looking for something catchy, try some alliteration..."Societal Stratification in the States" or something totally badass like, "Land of the free...Home of the slave" :| Btw what is your essay specifically looking at? How authors portray class segregation...

    The date major work is due?

    2499 words exactly. 48 footnotes, but not all of them are sources. Another question, how involved has your teachers been throughout the development of your work? My teacher is pretty inexperienced in this specific subject, but since there are only two of us in the class, he devotes a lot of...

    Atar estimate at a school ranked ~500

    Awesome, I guess I just need to keep studying for the final months. Also, out of curiosity.. Assume a student at a school ranked 1-50, got the same exam ranks as me in every subject...If we got the exact same External mark, would our Atars be the same?

    Atar estimate at a school ranked ~500

    How specific will the HSC exam be?

    When you say that I should be able to answer the question with the seven processes, how would I do any beside collecting? Also, this question wasnt looking for processes, but rather the technical workings to capture an image...whats the likely hood of this question appearing in the exam?

    Were Cleopatra's relationships with Mark Antony and Caesar romantic, or political?

    Re: Were Cleopatra's relationships with Mark Antony and Caesar romantic, or political sounds great, but when is your project due? We have about 3 weeks remaining...

    How specific will the HSC exam be?

    We just sat our trials and although all of the questions were familiar to me, I didn't not know enough specific information to answer them well. For example, One of the questions was: "Explain how a scanner works". The question was looking for specific, technical information, ie: Scanner...
