    Is there much difference between bachelor of psychology and bachelor of psychological

    Is there much difference between bachelor of psychology and bachelor of psychological science? From what I've gathered, psychological science is more.. well, science focused. See, I wanted to possibly do psychology and become a clinical psychologist, and it's also really important to me to go...

    Q about English and ATAR

    So I was playing around with various ATAR calculators. I realised they all require you to put English. I would assume if you are trying to estimate your ATAR, you would put your top 5 subjects, right? Or would you put all your subjects? I guess my main question is, if English is your worst...

    IRP diary entries help

    The diary entries seem the easiest part... however even though I've read the marking criteria, I want to be sure. Can anyone who got full marks on their diary entries show me a couple of entries as an example to know how to go about it? Thanks!

    Jump from year 10 to year 11

    Well year 11 and 12 are more important and have more work. Although your year 11 marks don't matter in the end, I still suggest you try and do well and study. I've found now that I'm in year 12, in some subjects we still have to recall stuff from year 11. I wouldn't say it's hard, just more work...

    What do you think of this as my PIP topic?

    I need to find a topic soon. I want to do something unique, however something that is not too difficult to get information on. My interests lie in gender studies but many things I know have been over done. I was thinking to do something like 'The under/mis-representation of black women in...

    Why does everyone freak out in Year 11 so much?

    I care because if I don't get into good habits now then next year is probably too late. I hate changes and I never used to study, almost end of year 11 and I am still struggling with getting good studying habits. I will study for like 4 hours a day for 2 weeks then the next week I won't study at...

    Question about bachelor of nursing UTS

    I am considering to maybe do bachelor of nursing at UTS to become a mental health/psychiatric nurse. I realise that nursing will have chemistry components in it. The course does not require chemistry as a prerequisite however it recommends any 2 units of a science subject - and I have done 2...

    Question about exam questions

    I was wondering something today about when an exam question asks for a specific amount of 'reasons' or features or whatever. Ok let's take agriculture for example. If the questions asks: "Name THREE features of a monocot plant" If you put down four features instead because you are not...

    Most annoying book of all time

    We had to read "Raw" by Scott Monk in English - perhaps not so annoying but goodness, I really dislike the way it was written. I mean, we are in year 11..averaging 17 years old and the book sounds like it was written for 10 year olds. So..simple.. basically when I read some parts of it I had...

    Suggest me some books?

    I'd love if anyone could suggest me some good books to read. But please note.. - no fantasy books - realistic fiction very much preferred - interest in psychological stuff - interest in books that will trigger emotions such as sadness Books I enjoy that might give you an idea of what...

    Looking for Alaska

    I think John Green is overrated.. Looking for Alaska really wasn't so great as everyone made it out to be, not to mention it was pretty predictable.. People always reccommended me to read books by him. First I read Paper Towns. I thought it was OK, not my type of book. Then I read the Faults in...

    What is the best way to study for yearlies? eg yr 11 yearly exams

    @HSC2014: It's difficult for me too to find past papers. However I found some dot point books at my school library for preliminary. Your school library might have some - they are basically questions related to the syllabus, like exam questions and they really help. Also I am not sure if they...

    Do You Wear Glasses?

    Yes, I'm short sighted and I hate wearing them! I only wear them in class if I can't see what's on the board and when I am driving. I failed maths in year 8 because I didn't know I needed glasses and couldn't see the board, and was too shy to ask to move up front. XD On the opposite sex, well...

    Is it too late to start writing notes?

    For all my subjects I summarised everything that year the day before each exam (albeit half yearly), got 99percent in one and all others at least 80percent. You can easily summarise notes a few days each subject but maybe it isnt the best method for everyone. Do what you think will help you more.

    How many quotes do you normally have in an essay?

    Usually as many as I have to use (and that's between 5 - 10). You need a quote to support everything, and be sure to explain it as well. Try and pick shorter quotes to remember them easier. If you have too many, just pick the more important ones.
