    whats a good raw mark for chemistry?

    This is not exactly true. Beginners courses are, generally, very good scaling courses. According to 2014 Table A3: P90 Italian Beginners/French Beginners - scaled mark 40.6 P90 German Beginners - scaled mark 41.5 P90 Physics - scaled mark 42.0 P90 Modern History - scaled mark 39.9 P90...

    Minimum mark to state rank in English Extension I?

    This is definitely not true. If two students both received 50.0/50.0 in English Extension 1 and thus exactly the same assessment and examination marks to the exact decimal place, BOSTES would look at the English (Advanced) marks, not English Extension 2 marks. This is the same for any Extension...

    Wut is this!?

    Yes, the sentence uses exclamation, but unless the modality of the language is necessary to what you are exploring, it's probably best not to use it as it is a bit vague as a technique. And I am not sure if the sentence is a good example of 'high modality' - I would think an argument with...

    Modern History General Questions and Essay Help Thread

    NEVER in history recount or tell a story/narrative. You need to use the facts and information that you have learnt to PROVE AN ARGUMENT, that is, YOUR CONTENTION. For example, my contention may be this: Lenin's leadership was indeed the most significant factor in the Bolshevik's successful...

    Words

    In my view, the creative should exceed 800 words. 800 to 950 seems like an appropriate range, because any opportunity to show off your writing increases the marker's impression of the work. I absolutely agree that "Quality is important, but quantity is quality in itself.". Great quote!

    2015 NSW State Election

    Labor and the Greens make an outstanding opposition. Really. That's why they should stay there. ;) In all seriousness, many people, especially Sathius005, keep stating that the Liberal Party is a "puppet" of "big business" (nice language there...). I don't think they appreciate how funding is...

    Words

    Hi everyone, How many words in total would you write for each response in an AOS: Discovery examination? For example, the creative 950 words, the extended response 1,000, reading 800 - whatever you think is appropriate. There's been some discussion that for English (Advanced) you must write...

    Your subject regrets

    I regret selecting Economics, because it's something I'd rather do in university. Instead, I wish I selected another language subject, like German Beginners. I really wish I did Italian or German in years 9 and 10 so I could do Cont./Ext. level. Also, I wish I could have done Ancient History...
