    How is everyone feeling about MX2 lately?

    How is everyone feeling about MX2 lately?

    Yeah! And after all the enthusiasm from 2007, 2008 seemed so much harder. Haha and for 08 I got more mistakes in Question 1 than Question 6-8 combined!

    anyone who can do the paper in ~1hr and get 80+, I have a question for you!

    I don't pay particular attention to the time I spend...I just ensure that I don't stop on one question for too long. Look either way, I reckon for the actual exam its better to go slow and easy!

    Texts asked in the creative writing?

    I'm pretty sure you DON'T use your own name. I remember coming across some place on the BOS website asserting that students must not mention their own name/address in their writings. (for letters etc.)

    Please help me pick out a uni course :)

    mate I reckon you're not using time effectively by worrying about this NOW. Ace the HSC first and then decide. (It's what I intend to do...) Oh and Engineering sounds like the ideal choice for you UNSW is considered to be one of the better ones for it as well. Look up the different streams. You...

    Macquarie University 'Merit Scholars Program'

    Really don't worry about this until after the HSC (Unless the application form is due in now) Choosing between the two Unis will depend on how much better UNSW is in comparison to Macq. I mean, I've heard both are quite good for Actuary, so perhaps side with Macq if you get the scholarship? Try...

    Advanced English- Module B- Critical Study Of Texts-Speeches

    Shouldn't have done Atwood imo. (For eg. try answering the 2009 HSC question with Atwood...it's too limiting and doesn't explore the more wider values of peace) Also, the third speech you use depends on the way you explore the other two. If, for example, your themes include peace then Sadat may...

    anyone willing to look at my industrial chem responses? lol

    Make sure your equations are right! It's CaCl2 Talk about ammonia lost to the environment as well (green house gas etc. etc.) and mining CaCO3 Why exactly do you mention the importance of hydrogen carbonate/carbonate as a buffer? You say that CaCl2 increases salinity, and then jump to talk about...

    Okay, so let the roots be a, a, b Their sum is 2a + b = -m Product is a^2 * b = 7 Sum two at a time is 2ab + a^2 = -15 Solve simultaneously and you'll get m Cheers

    Getting into selective

    I was in a similar position (only, in year 9 instead). You can try contacting them, but it was a straight no for me, without even a look at my application. That being said, please DO try! A mate of mine went from a partially selective school to Sydney Boys just for Year 12, and for him the...
