Iron hydroxide will be precipitated. We literally just learnt this concept at school today. :D

Since I'm guessing you're talking about in the context of Prelims and the HSC since we don't have to do IQ-type tests anymore (yay!) - besides the occasional competition - just know the details of each syllabus dot point. If possible, think of the answer before you look at the answer options...

The thing is, more people at higher-ranking schools get better ATARs than at lower-ranked schools. If you stay at Parramatta, then you would have more pressure to be a top-ranked student than if you were at Girra or SBHS, because even if you are only in the top 50 there as you predict you might...

4!*5! = 2880

Bump.

Do you mean like the ones you can find from the Taylor Science website? If so, yes.

Oh, and that's the other thing, actually. How should I use the rubric in my essays (in general)? Like, what parts should I use, should I be subtle about it or just copy parts of it where appropriate, and where in my essay is it most important?

Hi guys, I'm interested in trying out for a few public speaking competitions, but since I've never really gotten far in them before (in fact, I've never placed in any), I'd like some advice, preferably from past winners/people who have gotten far. I'm assuming a lot of my competitors are going...

Hi guys, I have two questions: With our current module, our teacher says our essay question (unknown until the day of the exam) is going to have an unknown extract from our text in it, because that's what the HSC exam will be like. How do we prepare for a question like this, since it's...

Good luck. I believe in you. :)

Just asking- do they give you homework to do (not assessments)? If they don't, then use the precious time you save by not doing pointless homework that will be checked by the teacher to do EXTRA WORK. Do you have any books (study guides) to use as an extra reference on top of your school-issued...

Write out your notes for each dot point over and over again (I hope 9 times is ideal). Sorry if this is not too helpful.

You absolutely can with the right amount of smart (not hard ;)) work.

PROOF: There's a girl called Natalie Buckett from Penrith who got 99.95 with all humanities in 2013. https://www.matrix.edu.au/scored-atar-99-95-without-maths-natalie-buckett/

Really? Where does it say that?

Taken from http://www.physics.org/article-questions.asp?id=44: Once you have built up a big enough static charge, an electric shock is almost inevitable. The moment you touch a conducting material such as metal, the excess electrons jump between your hand and the conductor, giving you a shock...

Yes, that's right. This is the case at my school, for example.

You have heaps of time before your yearlies, so what I recommend for bio is to find a source that has succinct answers to each dot point (e.g. Excel Biology summary notes, and I think Dot Point Prelim Biology is good as well) and just rewrite them over and over again (10 times for each dot point...

I'm not sure if this is correct, but I've actually heard that Standard is not necessarily "harder" to get a Band 6 in than Advanced; it's just that people who are less capable in English do it and hence get lower marks anyway. Also, I think Standard's marking "standards" might be high, since...

Of course they're going to be doable. Paper 1 currently consists of 3 sections - a reading task (unseen texts that you have to write shorter responses to); a creative writing question; and an essay question relating to your prescribed and related texts for the AOS. We have all had to write...
