    How is dux of the year determined?

    We don't have a dux per se, but we pass on a $4000 UNSW scholarship to the person who tops the most units.

    Ive been studing xhrs on average per day since trials.....

    Haha, hm. I don't think you should force yourself to study. I personally believe that the buzz will come to you within the next week and you'll have that sudden urge to actually do some work. If you forced yourself to study, wouldn't that remove the enjoyment factor we should all get from...

    Combined Medicine at USYD.

    Thanks guys. I really don't think I can get a UAI of 99.95.

    Combined Medicine at USYD.

    Yeah. It's around 5 people, I think. It may or may not change due to USYD increasing its 2009 intake, I don't know.

    Which Medium Scores Better With Markers

    I doubt that this would be the case, because it would be unfair to a short story to have otherwise scored the top band, to acheive E3. Likewise, it would be unfair for a suite of poems to receive the top band when it would have achieved E3.

    Combined Medicine at USYD.

    Hey guys, Contemplating UAC choices and in particular, medicine. I'm in a bit of a dilemma. The combined med course in USYD lists its UAI required as being 99.95. My question is: is this actually the cut-off? More specifically, is 99.95 the cut-off for medicine/arts? My friend told me that...

    Ive been studing xhrs on average per day since trials.....

    My rationale: Give yourself a break from the trials. It's better to work towards the HSC on full batteries, rather than just starting again and working when you're just flat/tired/over it. I've given myself two weeks of "NOTHING" time. I'm feeling much better and am going to start studying a...

    You've F*CKED up EX2 and you KNOW it.

    I'm very concerned that my work will not be understood by the markers and be liable to receive a low mark. :( I know that my reflection statement should explain my work, but as other EE2 teachers have pointed out, includng my own, there have been many cases where brilliant major works have been...

    Trials Thoughts/Results

    Congrats everybody~! I hope we're all high on motivation after taking a small break. We've got 50% (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) left of our HSC - let's make the most out of it!

    Trials Thoughts/Results

    Post up your ranks, Kev. Btw, Kev topped like seven-nine units. LOL.

    Trials Thoughts/Results

    Wow Sonya, good going! I hope some prick doesn't come in here and say that you only got your ranks because you go to a school ranked like 400th. Your ranks are great and you are well on your way to absolutely ripping the HSC! I rounded off my internal assessments by getting extension English...

    James Ruse Agricultural High

    Yeah, it's true actually. My friend who transferred to NSG also talks like that. LOL.

    James Ruse Agricultural High

    I declined their offer, after having been accepted for entry into year 11 in 2007. And I don't regret it. At all. :) I go to a wonderful school, and I don't care how much crap it puts up with.

    Year 12 Regrets

    Doing chemistry. Not doing ancient history or geography. Bloody idiot.

    Short Story 2 - 'Worked Out'

    I think that it would work really well if you created your persona as this hypochondriac who was fussy over a lot of things. To achieve this effect however, you have to be a lot more intricate with your descriptions, to give the reader a sense of claustrophobia almost. By this, I mean that it...

    Guys true story

    Annnnnnyway, just because Sonya does not attend a selective high school does not mean that her own academic abilities aren't "high". Ugh, I hate double-negatives, so I'll just spit it out: Sonya is highly intelligent, and your comments about her school being ranked lowly seemed to suggest that...

    School sending the ranks to BOS

    So who's coming first now? You or him, and has this been sent to the Board?

    School sending the ranks to BOS

    Well if he's above you by around 0.1%, then he should be ranked first. There's nothing unfair about that, I don't think. Just accept it and do your best in the HSC exam - it's not as if 2U is going to count for you in any case.

    Is History Extension Capped?

    LOL, I don't know. But give me 49.95 if you want :D 49.95/50 is basically 50/50, no?
