the only way to become top in the state is to sign your life away and do whatever your teacher says. then if you have time study. i really want to write a drama script with my drama teacher's help (he'd do anything for a student in one of his classes, and he's creative coordinator at our...

no, i'm from SFX College, a Marist school if that means anything to anyone out there. i'm considering dropping drama because i really don't want to do the group work and chances are i'll get scaled down anyway. the frees can help me catch up on sleep from ext. 2 english lol...that's what the...

i don't think my 13 units would be stressfull at all....if our school timetable didn't change last year from 13 to 12 units!!!! i have no frees and 7:45 starts twice a week :( i hear they might be going back to 13 for next year's year 11s :mad1: my friend is doing 14 units on our 12 unit...

our school doesn't want us to do anything else lol....MG here :)

we're supposed to find an english teacher to mentor us but it's acceptable to have another type of teacher at your school. the only reason i'm not asking my adv/ext. 1 teacher is because i can easily ask for her opinion close to the deadline since i see her every day, but i can't find someone...

i was aiming for medicine. going by my last set of scores i should rethink that. drama and general maths will drag me down, so i'm hoping they won't cut me from eng ext. 2. apparently the catholic schools office (they control everything for us) has this formula that decides how many teachers...

just saw your rant on the year 12 workload. awwe :( i know how you feel. on friday i came home, screamed at and tried to hit my sister, accidentally ripped her shirt, dug earplugs as far as i could into my ears as possible and climbed into bed underneath a pile of clothes i should have been...

hi :) if you're having trouble coming up with an idea for your major work, i suggest you think of an activity you do every day or a friend you're close to, and just see how much of a story you can write about them. all people in my MW will be very loosely based on people i know. or you could ask...

a couple of years ago my friend wrote this script i absolutely loved that she wanted to turn into a movie. the two main characters were based on her, the leader of this major organisation, and me, her second in command who she has to rescue after i screwed up a job she gave me. this is my...

when i said my exams were over in my blog, i meant that those two weeks were finished, not all exams. we're glad we can relax for a couple of terms. today was day 4 of yr 12 for me, as i am in the graduating year of 2010, and i still can't get over it

i don't find it demanding. it's not more difficult. it's not more anything. it's just more english. you take the same stuff you do in advanced and go a little further into depth with it is all and then around once or twice a term we'll get a "formative" task (no weighting, the teacher can...

in advanced module C: representation and text, elective 1: conflicting perspectives: -the poetry of Ted Hughes (i think it's The Birthday Letters, not sure) -Arraigment, a poem by Robyn Morgan -the poems Daddy and Lady Lazareth by Sylvia Path (his wife) -extracts from Plath's journals along with...

don't worry about it. i've been away from the net for a while recovering. my exams were a nightmare and i can't believe i'm a year 12 student :) how do you cope with ext. maths? i started with it but failed miserably. i'm down from ext. to general. but i'm doing well enough for ext. 2 english...

thanks for your concern about the context of my romanticism creative writing work. the guidelines of our assessment asked us to appropriate the romantic style, not write something from that period, so i was perfectly fine. i should have said appropriation. i was given 20/20 when i handed it up...

after dropping down from extension i still found the harder algebra and calculus easy enough to do in class but so difficult to remember in a test. so i got 27% and was kicked out. general is mind numbingly slow after extension.

Re: So is naybody doing any subjects for the HSC which they screwed up in the Prelimi i am still going to do chemistry even though i have been hovering at 50% because it's an improvement from 30% at the start of the year and my teacher insists that there are plenty of students who came from...

biology: 66/76 after a recount english advanced: 17/20 (improved) extension english: 37/45 (improved) drama: 25/30 (my worst so far) chemistry: was taken back but i think it was around 50% but i'm not panicing because the year average was 53.5% advanced maths: 27% (yes they...

Re: Did you choose the High School you now attend or did your Parents force it on you there could be one in cessnock. there is a group of them and the one close to me has almost bought out the whole block it's on. their uniform shop is an entire house!

the negative rep you gave me. if you didn't then the system is playing up

i'm sorry you feel that way about what i said in the thread about religious discrimination :( i just hear so many terrible things about the Church, and it has caused me to lose my faith. i think it's a shame you're the only person who has neg rep'd me
