    Biology Excel Book.... is it thorough?

    thanks guys, I'm currently halfway through Maintaining a Balance and I've consolidated notes from Excel, Heinemann Biology and a few sets of Bored of Studies resource notes, as well as the Powerpoints that my teacher gave me that he teaches us from, so I think I'm doing fairly well. Thanks :)

    EEX2 - Short Story Idea..... comments/opinions?

    Hey guys, so I'm about to start English Extension 2, and the whole idea of philosophy/religion/atheism is really speaking to me. I am thinking about doing a dystopian plot, where basically the Catholic Church has gone all 'dark ages' again and essentially torn apart civilization. It would be...

    What subjects are you dropping ?

    Went in to Year 11 with Advanced English, Extension English 1, Advanced Maths, Extension Maths 1, Biology, Physics and Chemistry.

    Your Opinion On Chemistry ?

    Personally, I hate chemistry! But I attribute it completely to the fact that our teacher is not very good, in terms of explaining concepts in a straighforward way. He also makes you seem like an idiot for asking questions, which is DEFINITELY not a good thing for a Prelim course >.< I would get...

    Preliminary Extension 1 help! Essay on values, contexts and attitudes.

    Hey guys, so basically I am preparing for my half yearly examination, which will involve half an hour of writing an essay (focusing on Gilgamesh, Mulan and my ORT which is Underbelly). I'm going to write a generic response which I can then tweak to fit the exam question. Basically we are talking...

    What's your AOS this year preliminary-ers.

    AoS in Prelim is Journeys... (smashed the assessment task, 97.5% come at me! (: ) We studied Othello as a prescribed text and my ORTS were 'Changes' by three doors down and 'House' (season 5/6 - when he is a mental patient). Extension is the archetypal quest... studying gilgamesh and mulan...
