    'after the bomb' elective for ext eng

    Guys this sounds like a FANTASTIC module! I mean I just had a think about it... it's bound to be wicked fun, looking at the insecurities the world faced after Hiroshima/Nagasaki and how certain composers explore the certain threats of open violence during the Cold War. Joseph Heller should be a...

    When are notifications sent for Showcase nominees?

    LOLOLOLOLOL. Actually, we figured that they were trolls, so I wanted to see some evidence. Of course, I sugarcoated my message, but the intent was still there: shoo, trolls! Shoo! Davo, I also looked at Captain nemo's past posts and was like... er... yeah, and then someone told me that they...

    When are notifications sent for Showcase nominees?

    Captain_nemo, melaniestrolll, could you post up the letter? I want to see what it looks like! If I'm obsessive I'll even do a nice photoshop with my name on the letter instead, just to assuage the pain of not getting in :D Prettty please. P.S. Debbo, that's a real shame. Your work is...

    Hexanoic Acid + Ethanol > ? and what conditions?

    Technically, esterification doesn't need any "special" conditions to proceed. If the reactants are just left there, they'll produce the ester (which in your case will be ethyl hexanoate) and water. However, because this process is slow, we use reflux (the gentle heating of the reactants, with...

    Which school should i go?

    I think Willoughby's a single-sex government school whereas you'd need to pay for SCEGGS Redlands? Iono. I'm a cheapo so I'd go to a government school!

    When are notifications sent for Showcase nominees?

    I'm such a loser. When the mailman came, I quickly rushed out to get the letters. I only got some USYD one today.

    17, pregnant, yr 12 next year.. what do i do?

    I feel sorry for you. Any decent human being would have considered how aborting the child may have affected the mother.

    17, pregnant, yr 12 next year.. what do i do?

    Lucy, How do you currently feel about your pregnancy? I know that it's been traumatic and just know that everyone - everyone makes mistakes... Have you considered the financial side of things; how will you support your child? I hope you've got the backing of your family. They mean the world in...

    17, pregnant, yr 12 next year.. what do i do?

    Do you even care about how others feel? Oh wait, rhetorical question. I suppose bagging out anti-abortion groups and using this girls' troubles to let out some of your ideological steam makes you so much of a better man. If you aren't willing to lend a compassionate hand, I say, get our of this...

    English Tutoring - North Shore/City

    Guys, Deborah is an extremely intelligent being, and with $20 an hour being a very affordable price, I'm sure you could benefit heaps from her tuition. How hard must it be to come top five in like all your subjects at NSG! Plus, I added her on MSN to purchase something from her and she's a...

    Schools In The Bankstown Area

    Well, this is coming from personal experience but students all tend to diss the school they come from – to look for their school’s shortcomings, how “crap” it is, etc., so it is not exactly surprising that alumni would focus on the negativity of the school rather than its beneficial aspects. The...

    School rank v HSC marks

    The HSC exam is more important because your internal assessment marks depend on how well you (and your peers) do in the external exam.

    Schools In The Bankstown Area

    Sefton is good if you're dedicated. Personally I think that those who do well don't have so much of a bad opinion of the school, while those who do not-so-well look for scapegoats, and the school in itself comes to the forefront of their minds obviously. This is just a generalisation that I've...

    When are notifications sent for Showcase nominees?

    Fingers crossed guys. P.S. Hysterik, your work's probably not as bad as you say. How did you get away with not showing your teacher your progress throughout the year (if you really did finish your major work in the last three weeks)? Maybe you just felt as if you did it all in the last three...

    What are you currently Reading?

    Finished Nights in Rodanthe. Indeed, unashamedly romantic. The movie got two stars but whatever, I still melted. :help:

    Explanation of HSC Marks (Moderating)

    Oh okay, but cem what would happen if I was put in this position (and I am): I came first in advanced English by around 10 marks, yet I feel that I've drastically underperformed in the HSC external. What would happen to my internal assessment mark? Would it be the highest exam mark recorded by...
