    school ranks?

    The moderating process*: For each of your subjects your school will send the BOS a list showing the school marks attained by each student. The BOS doesn't care what these marks are. They want to see a) the ranks of each student and b) how large the spaces between each student are. This...

    Uni assignments

    Harvard system FTW. So dirty that the History faculties are staunchly pro-footnote.

    What is your financial status?

    Abolish welfare payments to young people

    Lol Tony. Is someone feeling a little left out after all the healthcare attention Rudd is getting?

    Timetable for MW

    ... I dunno about timetables but at about this time last year I had ~1500/8000 done. No one in my group had finished any first drafts, some had done ~2000/8000 and some had done precisely 0. Our aim was to have it completely finished with about three weeks to spare and then spend the rest of...

    How do i do English Extension 2?

    I did four units of English and Maths and I managed a social life just fine. I kind of disagree with people who say that 4U English is really intense. It's as hard as you want to make it. There will be times of panic and frenzied work and there will be moments of laid-back zen and it...

    ATAR estimate please?

    Board doesn't really care what your percentages are, they only want to know your position relevant to the rest of your cohort so they can then assign internal marks based on the spread of results scored by your cohort in the external exams. It's because each school will mark differently and set...

    scholarships .

    A lot of them won't even be open yet. EG the USYD merit/entry scholarship apps don't open until August and they shut in September. Keep checking the sites - when they say they're closed they often mean closed for 2010, not for 2011.

    Is my concept too generic???

    I did something very similar (character change and withdrawal from the USSR) and it ended up working out fine. Differentiate your MW by creating an original and evocative setting, experiment with language forms and get to know your character really well so that you can think up a moving and...

    religious threads

    :uhoh: That's pretty much the point where you should pack this up and go home.

    religious threads

    Oh for fuck's sake. That's right, blame it on teh ghey. So we've got "talking shit about the Church = the Holocaust" and "their repressed and sick love of cock made them molest (male AND FEMALE) children, so sad ...". This is a fail of epic proportions. This argument essentially boils down...

    religious threads

    Lukybear, can I just take this moment to point out that your sig's Bible verse has a typo and it really cracks me up?

    religious threads

    Lolwhut. You're talking to a forum primarily comprised of people your age or similar and you think using the "as much as my age allows" excuse for lack of research and poorly founded beliefs will fly? The atheists in this thread aren't blind, you are.

    religious threads

    Crusades, Thirty Years' War and French Wars of Religion, just to name a few. And then you have the countless acts of genocide which have religious links including Srebrenica and massacres including the very recent attacks of Muslims upon Christians in Nigeria and Protestant-Catholic violence in...

    religious threads

    Lol okay. You have fun with your mind and the horrendous thoughts within it. But the vast majority of people don't need to have their morality recoded by an organisation which covers up the rape of children. Oh and to borrow your phrasing - in history, even in ancient history, countless wars...

    Or it gives horridly immoral people the opportunity to, I dunno, molest children?

    religious threads

    Gah I hate that line. Some of us don't believe in sin and don't appreciate being tarred with the "all humans are inherently bad" brush. As for the topic, can't say I mind the "kill all j00s/muslims" threads being deleted, even though it does lessen the chances of stumbling across the...

    PIP questions

    Also maybe you want to get a move on considering that you're about to start term 2 and the whole thing is due term 3?

    PIP questions

    General topic seems interesting. To avoid just giving a history of gaming's growing acceptance into mainstream, thogh, you might want to amp up your cross cultural component eg looking at possible gender conflicts in gaming communities or, like mjones14 said, talking about the censorship debate...

    Why isn't there a thread on the wikileaks "Collateral Murder" video yet?

    Seemed more like those troops were sitting on a couch playing video games. Fucking chilling.
