    Plans for starting Year 12 in a few months?

    Dropping bio for sure. If I get into 4 unit maths, I'll stick with 11 units. If not, I'm fine with 10.

    Wish List Thread

    I want TOMS shoes D: Also a DSLR would be nice. And a Gibson electric-acoustic. Plane tickets to America where they have awesome line ups for festivals. And more freedom ):

    Investigation question

    Haha my chem teacher was just stressing the importance of equipment names so I drilled it into my head. Turns out she was right, the exam we just got back had a question where we had to draw a diagram of this experiment. It specifically had to be named, and the end of the tube had to be in the...

    Ideal Units in HSC.

    Mm. The poll didn't have a "10-11" option, I would've chosen that. I'm definitely not doing 12 units, and whether or not I do 11 units is if I can do MX2 xD

    Investigation question

    NB: the "bent glass tube coming out of it" is called a gas delivery tube. If you wanted to be more specific, carbon dioxide reacts with the calcium hydroxide (limewater) to form the precipitate calcium carbonate, which is why the limewater turns milky.

    gas exchange methods

    Hmm I haven't come across this type of stuff (specifically) but if I had to answer I would probably talk about surface area to volume ratio. This won't wholly answer the question, but you could talk about how frogs have a very small SA:V ratio, and diffusion would be very ineffective, which is...

    Clash of the titans

    We chose to watch How To Train A Dragon instead. I was very happy about our choice. Well worth it.

    what was the first song you learnt on the guitar?

    Yeah, and also the other progressions using just those 4 chords. Amazing isn't it? I learned Paramore's cover of Foo Fighters' My Hero first. Oh the days when I struggled playing C.. xD

    is having 12 units for year 12 hard?

    Other people don't always know what's best for you xD Like last year, everyone who said they wanted to do 3 sciences for prelim this year received an :O and a "that's suicide!" response. I'm one of those people doing all three and personally it isn't that bad =) Also take into account how you're...

    Studies of Religion

    True. We just got our half yearly exam back and many many people got extremely good results. I doubt that it's just my school, the course isn't exactly difficult. I've changed my mind about religion and I'm keeping it in year 12 xD
