    Creative Writing Questions.

    Technically, yes. But PIPs can be challenging despite appearing to be easy. E.g. a mathematics PIP: Derive the formulae for the area of a sphere (surface area), volume of a sphere, and thus find the volume formula of a hemisphere via derivation. Also find the surface area formula for a...

    "Identify" Dot Points

    Um. yes. Very hypocritical of a heterosexual to say that homosexuality is 'funny'. So is male and female sex, and with the intro of 'docking' male and male do fit together (provided there is a foreskin) anyhow: I'm not gay. I just am sensitive to the concerns of homosexual as before I met...

    Subject 'required' for Physio

    Excellent abstract thinking. Way to make it LOOK LIKE you read my mind, upcoming psychic! Fraud in the making, lol! :D But seriously; it's a good skill.

    Subject 'required' for Physio

    LOL I know-ay? But you see, I just did what my school (MCK: Marian College Online ) told me to do! "Pick the subjects you like; disregard scaling James, because it doesn't matter if you do well, which you most likely will (if you put your 'head down and bum up')." :) So I picked PD/H/PE...

    Subject 'required' for Physio

    LOL at the misinformed innocent 15-year-old kid!! :) Kidding, love NO, you dumbass, don't you talk to the Curriculum Coordinator??? It's not "TOO LATE" (ooh no oh dear it's too fucking late ahahahahaha) to change subject way later (Term 1, Week 4 of Year 11 2010, you ignormaus).. I am sorry...

    Subject 'required' for Physio

    That's okay; catching up would be fun AS... chips (lol, bastardized simile 'cheap as chips'!!) ... anyways; that's good to know. I actually LIKE Chem... I just found that Higher School Cert. Chem is quite boring (I tried to read Prelim text COnquering Chemistry Yr 11 from page 1... so ...

    "Identify" Dot Points

    I truly do not wish to be rude; but: kill yourself now if you're aiming for a BIO Band 6!! :) I'm in Year 10 (albeit I am one of the top five students in my year) and I understand that question... it's exactly like an SC Science test question - just fucking harder (and it's a Search for Better...

    Is there anyone on here who isn't aiming for an atar of 90+?

    Unlike you, I'm doing the HSC in 2011, two years' time; basically I GOT a shit time ahead of me if I want to do Physio @ USYD!! The ATAR req'd is 97.00 (it increased from the 2008 cutoff)/ATAR in general increased too but! :) I can get 95+ and that's bloody well why I aim for it: because I...

    Which subject is a crime against nature subject in year 10 syllabus?

    Newton's Laws of Motion are fascinating. YOU use physics, and Newtonian Motion, in your everyday activity (I don't want to say 'life' because you obviously don't have one), and you ARE a bunch of cells ... without the existence of science, you would basically be the same thing as God: an...

    Fail hsc is maths below 50%???? help

    40% would not be in the sixties or seventies aligned. So you're wrong. 2U Mathematics scales similarly to Modern History, at a sclaed mean of about 27/50 or 54/100. Of course scaling is different from aligning, but! Scaling is more generous than aligning, not less. So the aligning on 2U...

    Physics Questions Help Please

    Yes, the angle at which the stone is THROWN is of course, ZERO. But the initial angle of the parabolic curve is 45 DEGREES> BTW Way to go! You just bastardized a simple maths question by making it TOO simple with physics formulae. Please derive all of the formulae you mentioned to prove me...

    Who's going to the opera house to see The Taming of the Shrew?

    The Taming of the Shrew is much better, from what people say, than As You Like It. BTW you go to Ruse, so they probably give you dry, lame, boring Shakespeare to make you study harder than if they had given you wet (lol), excellently written, interesting Shakespeare. He's a great playwright...

    I want to write a story. But about what?

    Hello Shadowdude. It's good to see that you have created some concepts to work with ('concepts' makes this sound a lot like Physics or maths, but that's all right!). I see you (probably) like maths, as you do 3U. You could write a story about a mathematician. It would be interesting to explore...

    Physics Questions Help Please

    This is directly from the book I mentioned: "How to throw a stone "The best compromise, which can be worked out using a combination of Newtonian physics and some elementary CALCULUS, turns out to be as neat as one could hope for under the circumstances: the direction of the stone as it leaves...

    Physics Questions Help Please

    Ooh! I was reading about this just yesterday! Let me go get that book, Mathematics: A Very Short Introduction. BTW I'm not taking the piss, that's a real book, give me a minute or two. :)

    Which subject is a crime against nature subject in year 10 syllabus?

    What a load of bullshit. PD/H/PE prac is good, yeah, of course (not being sarcastic). Theory is awesome but! Who doesn't want to learn about what smoking dope and cigarettes does to your body! (Or didn't you study this in Yr 8-Yr 9?) SO I will assume that you are one of those people who thinks...

    Which subject is a crime against nature subject in year 10 syllabus?

    I love PD/H/PE too! Hi five! :lol: Australian Geography should not be removed from the curriculum, it should just be changed into WORLD Geography (like Year 8 Geo), which is much more interesting than the geography of this sad sorry country! :) BTW people on these web pages don't like PD/H/PE...

    Who's going to the opera house to see The Taming of the Shrew?

    Hello all, Please refer to the thread's title: a lot of Preliminary HSC (English Advanced) students studied the Taming of the Shrew for an area of study, such as Change or Conflict, others studied it for their modules. What I'm interested in is, who liked it, and who's going to see the...
