    kfc or mcdonalds?

    Ive worked at maccas and it was good when i started (first job) but then deteriorated from there on in. 2am finishes, 1am on school nights, sporadic rosters, if you can describe them that way, and egotistical 20yo managers who are nice for the first 3 months but are then just annoying. Now im at...

    Test and compare your internet speed

    Its the funniest thing to watch, literally shooting someone, not getting points for it then 3 seconds later dying for no apparent reason and watching the killcam and you dont even get a shot off.

    Impact of Class on Results

    If you rank first in any subject, the effect of the cohort on your internal assessment mark is zip, zilch, zero. You get the top exam mark as your internal assessment mark, and it sounds like you will get that too.

    Impact of Class on Results

    Your assessment mark will not be affected by your cohort if you rank first (or last). That means if you get the top score in the HSC exam for your cohort, your raw mark will be 2x your HSC mark. So its all up to you if you get first. That said, if you have a below average class, you may not...

    Extension 1 tuesday and wednesday mornings, 7:45 - 8:45 Extension 2 has been lucky enough to run online as there are only 3 kids and one line of frees line up with the teachers

    School Ranking Dropped

    Although this doesnt sound as bad as you position, in chemistry for year 11 i topped every assessment by at least 10% getting 90+ every time. And then of course the first assessment task in year 12 i get 83% and come 6th, and the weighting is 25% :( I think we just gotta work hard to get where...

    eco tips

    If you're serious about doing it yourself, purchase the tim reilly market economy workbook and do one exercise a week. I study this via distance education meaning i dont have a teacher for it and i send away one of these exercises a week and he'll send it back later with marking etc. Theres...

    HSC question help

    Im pretty sure madharris is right. the formula weight of BaSO4 is 137.3 + 32.07 + 4x16 = 233.37 The moles of sulfate are the same as in a chemical equation the moles are in equal whole number ratios (at least for most of them) That means that ===> Ba^2+ + SO4^2- <> BaSO4(s) As there...

    Changing Subjects?

    Trust me, if you develop a good relationship with your English teacher early on they will help you out so much, and you will be a lot better at it. I found the jump from yr10-11 a little hard, but it wasnt completely unexpected either. This will make me sound like a douche, but I came 9th in...

    If i get 2 interviews..

    Most likely they will not hire you on the spot. They congratulate you on the meeting, shake hands, blah blah, and say someone will contact you in a few days to discuss whether or not they will hire you. In the event that they do hire you on the spot, try and say something like "can you give me...

    Help Plz! iPad on school laptop wifi?

    I have a couple of friends that use their ipads at school, (as well as our science HT) and i know that if you're trying to connect to the DET network that has been built, you need to connect to the school network, not nswdet, and tap the "manual tab" and type in an ip address and such. I cant...

    STATE RANKING CHEM (3rd) AND BIO (12th) and MODERN NOTES

    I recently purchased Kamal's notes and they are extremely comprehensive and concise. His use of colour and diagrams is much appreciated as well as sticking to the dotpoints and some HSC style exam questions. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
