Isn't that called... Modern history? =P

I did Yitzhak Rabin who was involved in peace within the Middle East. We had to go to class with a speech prepared in the persona of our chosen character, and I'm presuming that you don't have to do that... If you want to do someone really really nutty, go for Hitler, Stalin (though his...

I have two hours a week. So all up that should add up to 60 hours per year. But I've heard stories similar to yours, where the hours don't quite add up. Follow it up with a higher authority. And the work load is quite strenuous... I did an 8000 word project at the end of last term. (Stayed up...

Well... a) sin 3x = sin (2x + x) = sin2x.cosx+sinx.cos2x = 2cosxsinx.cosx + sinx.(cos^ x-sin^2 x) = 2cos^2 sinx + sinxcos^2 x - sin^3 x = 3sinxcos^2 x - sin^3x. b) cos 3x = cos (2x + x) = cos2x.cosx - sin2x.sinx = (cos^2x-sin^2x)cosx - 2cosxsin^2x = cos^3x - sin^2xcosx - 2cosxsin^2x = cos^3x...

I really like The Crucible by Miller though! SHE'S A WITCH!!!!1111 AND SHE IS TOO!!!!111 REBECCA NURSE WHO DOESN'T HAVE A BAD BONE IN HER BODY... SHE'S A WITCH TOO!!!! John Proctor: *eyeroll* This is so dumb. LOL. Ooooh Kite Runner. That would have been tres bien.

Study, make notes on important dates and stuff. Look at your essays and write one weekly even, and hand that into your teacher for a look-over. Participate in class more - that will surely help you. Revise constantly. Hannah, if you scored 6.5/40, the only direction you can go, is up now...

Aside from maths, English and history, you've got the language extensions. French, Mandarin, Latin, Classical Greek... I wish I was doing French.

A lot of us are and will be stuck with texts we absolutely despise with passion, so I just wanted to ask you all which texts you wished you could do for your prelims and most importantly, the HSC. For me, my favourite text of all time is To Kill a Mockingbird. Omg, it's such an awesome book...

Re: Science Olympiads I've been making notes at lightning fast pace for the year 11 chemistry, and I bought a year 12 text book yesterday so I could start. Had a look at the chemistry syllabus for the Olympiad. Most of the stuff there is in the HSC course. So guys, the bio/phys one might be...

Re: Term 2 Holiday Discussion temp. My attitude to global warming: Live Earth concerts don't work. People go for the music, while the stars singing there fly off in their private jets and just how "carbon neutral" are their concerts? (eyeroll); Global warming exists and it's no coincidence...

Re: Term 2 Holiday Discussion temp. My bio teacher is sceptical of idea that <1% of the Earth's atmosphere is having such a detrimental impact on our environment.

Yeah. A girl at my school got 99.75 without doing maths. Good on you, if you stuck to the subjects you like. Which school do you go to? And zomg the head teacher of maths is your MUM? LOLOL.

English - N/A Modern History - Teacher prepares sheets which is better than getting a textbook for it. Chem - Surfing, Conquering Chem Bio - Surfing, Jacaranda Maths - J&C 3U

Well I mean, I really like English and maths, but for different reasons. I like English because it gives me a chance to be articulate in my answers and I've been quite astounded by how I can at least get the message a lot of obscure, vague modern poems by looking at some of the techniques and...

OMG. Hey S.Yong :D I know you! Yeah you should do history extension.

Hey, Funnily enough, I do very well in chemistry practical reports but for the major one I had to do for bio, the field research thing, I got 58% which severely demoralised me, caused my rank to suffer, and hence Zephyrio will not be undertaking the course for year 12. =) (The average for the...

LOL. Good luck :)

I love English. Planning to study English at Uni. LOL at the reaction you guys will have after hearing that.

Hey, one of the most written about conflicts EVER is the Arab-Israeli Conflict. Question: Why are you doing this topic now when it is clearly a HSC option module? Anyway, from what I've gathered throughout the years: The land of Israel is the land that God promised to the Jews. Yet, when...

I hope something not too nasty. But Lucid, wow. Sounds like you did a cracker of a job. Good man.
