    Lol, well if The Asians (Iran, India, China and Pakistan), team up against the West, (provided the Russians team up with the Asians or don't pick a side until it's too late), we'll be demolished. Also In 40 years time, I think China will invade India, and start WW3.

    Recommended Textbooks/Study Guides for Year 12 HSC

    Btw I meant 4 quotes for the related text(s)^. In the essay, you'd have more on the prescribed, of course.

    Why would you be concerned over that? We only have a concern when the Americans come in, pick a side and draw the allies in with them, and we get smashed. Btw If Ron Paul gets elected, Iran will probably develop nukes and scare the crap out of Israel.

    Recommended Textbooks/Study Guides for Year 12 HSC

    My advice for you during the holidays: English - Read the syllabus and gain a brief understanding of the module, even if you haven't started it (e.g. ask your teacher if your going to be doing Texts in Time in Module A, or Yeats in Module B, or Julius Caesar in Module C etc.) - Read all your...

    Help, I feel like I've ruined my life.

    If you don't get into B Commerce/ B Science (Advanced Mathematics), why don't you just get into B Commerce or B Science (Adv. Math) and transfer after one year? You've learnt your lesson the hard way this year, but you won't make the same mistake at uni. You can get into B Commerce through bonus...

    raw marks for mid band 5 in english?

    For Advanced, I know that a band 6 is around 83/105. I'm not too sure what a band 6 is for Standard, but it'd probably be a lot higher because not many people get band 6's in standard.

    The reason l didn't go to UTS open day.

    After USYD's crap open day, I'm considering placing UNSW/UTS as my 1st/2nd preferences for Law. I want uni to be fun, not boring like that stupid excuse for an open day USYD had.

    To those who do 3 sciences

    +1. I can't agree with this more! I know a lot of people who picked physics and chemistry because of the scaling and now regret it. If your better at the written and spoken word, you might like to pick a HSIE subject like Economics, Legal Studies or Modern History. Saying that, if you like...

    What are you currently Reading?

    Just finished 'The Stranger', by Albert Camus, loved it! I started the Trial, by Kafka, it's really good so far, I like it so much more than The Metamorphosis.

    Can I get a high band 5 or low band 6 in Eng?

    I'm not sure of the accuracy of this, but my teacher said 82/105 is a band 6 for English Advanced. I have my doubts though, because of the amount of students who do it, and achieve higher than that. Aim for 95/105 raw and you'll most certainly get a band 6, but once again it depends on ur...

    What raw mark do you need for a band 6 in Advanced English?

    I got 98/105 in the CSSA trials for English. What HSC mark would that be? Also, what is the cut off for a band 6 in Adv Eng? My teacher said u needed 82/105 to get a band 6 in Eng Adv. Is this right? Thanks
