    Mathematics Notes Survey.

    And maths pick up lines- I can provide a decent number :D

    Mathematics Notes Survey.

    Sounds like a good plan- top tutor attitude =) Personally, I'd like notes to cover the theory (but I don't need too much on that). The main thing would be to have nice worked examples but a lot of textbooks just do simple worked examples, I'd like worked examples for some of the harder or more...

    Balance of Payments Issues in Australia

    What exactly are you asking sorry? Do you just want small pointers or more detailed stuff? For example- one major issue in Australia's BOP is the fact that we've run a CAD for a ridiculous amount of time now. Is this an issue? Maybe, maybe not. Look at things like the Pitchford Thesis, look at...

    Hahaha- I didn't notice that. Tbh I'm not really concerned with what I'll get- whatever happens happens and I can't really change that. Hopefully we get some nice reuslts :D Yeah I hope it works out for you- what are you aiming for?

    Units

    I think this is a very personal question. Personally, I liked all 12 of my units and I could cope with them all so I kept all 12 to the end and even now I still don't know what'll count which I think is fantastic because it means that my backup was actually useful (like my chem might end up...

    GET AHEAD- Holiday acceleration course

    Someone asked for proof of ranks so this is a screenie from students online: Right now I've had a bit of interest for economics and for chemistry so I should be able to form a BOS thingo definitely for those two but I'm still more than happy to do the other subs.

    GET AHEAD- Holiday acceleration course

    Hey guys, I'm George and I graduated this year from a selective school with an ATAR of 99.95 :) Quite a few people (not from BOS) asked me to do a holiday acceleration course for their subs so I thought I’d also offer something similar here in case people are interested. What...

    Not sure if this will help at all or even if it'll be counterproductive but right now you can't change anything. Whether you stress your head off or chill, your atar will still be the same. So don't think/worry about it- whatever happens will happen and then go from there IMO. I hope you get...

    Chess thread

    Re: Chess thread? Yeah yolo- why not. Though I'll get raped. Can we make it sorta quick though? Like I don't need time limits, but I don't want to be spending 20 mins per move etc

    University course

    Bachelor of Commerce/Law at either Usyd or UNSW but 95% leaning towards UNSW

    Year 12 2013 Chit Chat Thread

    Re: The p00n thread How about when people judge you because you're white? I've had everything from me doing gen maths, to expecting ATAR's in the 80's at the best etc. haha. Its actually hilarious- I love having those conversations sometimes

    Year 12 2013 Chit Chat Thread

    Re: The p00n thread This so much. That's why I'm so against this 'everyone can get 99 ATAR' thing that some people have etc.- I know heaps of people that have done their best and gotten 70's or 80's or 90's etc. and they are proud of themselves and so they should be. Its all about individual...

    Haha I haven't even thought about my ATAR since school- this'll be interesting. What I'll do when results come out is look at each subject individually (cover up the other ones) and then look at my assessment mark and then the exam mark. School was fun but I'm loving this freedom and stuff now...

    does 0.5 get rounded up

    Your school probably shouldn't be giving half marks because HSC doesn't but a few schools still do. This would all depend on this individual policy of your school but I'd guess that it stays at 17.5- that would defs be the fairest thing- you should only ever round at the end- sorry

    Does any other school have before/after school classes?

    Our school had morning classes for two of the four MX2 classes but everything else was on the timetable. Generally, smaller schools run extension classes off timetable whilst the bigger ones and especially selective schools that have a lot of extension students will run the second extensions...

    Help With Past HSC Multiple Choice!

    Think about it like Le Chat's principle. You are constantly removing the products of the reaction so equilibrium keeps shifting to the right -> therefore whether its a weak acid or a strong acid, they both essentially fully ionise under the titration. Therefore the volume is the same for both

    Do most schools have people who leave 40-30 minutes early?

    To work out if you just feel this way because you are jealous of people who can simultaneously get a 99 ATAR and have a social life... BUT, this whole debate is missing the inherent idea of individual potential. For some people, they could study 10 hours a day, go all out and get a 95 ATAR...
