    Does Yr 12 students entitled to have 'holiday breaks'?

    Work a school day, 8:30-3:15 for me. Take breaks such as recess and lunch, then at 3:15, you have the whole afternoon to read, watch movies, masturbate etc.

    Ruse vs. Grammar

    I have good friends that go to Grammar. I got accepted there but without a scholarship, so i didn't go. You're correct when you say it's 'rounded', part of GPS, so has Saturday sport. Also, there's an avid debating culture and the kids are from all backgrounds, not all are affluent. All are...

    Difference between sophistication and verbosity

    I totally agree with that, my EX1 teacher said that the markers feel that we should write ostentatiously, so i assumed the same would be for advanced, but obviously not. Great point. I'm normally scraping 14-15, i understand 12's a fine mark, I just have high aspirations.

    Cambridge/Oxford Law

    Cambridge/Oxford Law

    I attend a city school and i feel the urge to escape Sydney. I may be taking it to the extreme, but i'm purely curious. I understand i'm in year 11 and it will require a high ATAR, but i've heard of people doing it, going to Cambridge and Oxford and studying. My only worry is that if, by some...
