    Probability

    No you don't just add them- look at it like this: 1) You either get an ace on the first try which is 1/5 2) You don't get an ace on the first try which is 4/5 and then get an ace the second time which is 1/4. So the chance of getting the ace the second time around is 1/5 (4/5 x 1/4) Add...

    850 Words in 34mins

    Well personally, I spend more time on S3 because there length is strength but in the creative you can get good marks with less writing. So I'd be inclined to make it longer but that depends on your creative length etc. You have to keep in mind that on the day it will take you longer than 34 mins...

    Just a Reminder

    Yeah I've got two relateds. Though with two my essay is like 1300 words LOL which might be possible but I'll probs have to cut down some stuff.

    A Day In The Life of a Law Student

    I know I'm not a student at UNSW but I've sent them emails on this so I can actually answer this haha. At UNSW, they don't look at ATAR when looking at transferring into Comm/Law- its purely based on WAM. They guarantee 100 internal transfers into the entire law program from other degrees and...

    Yeah I hope I don't get effed up by them either haha. My Frank is 1070 words but obviously depending on the question, it might turn out longer or shorter. It used to be 1200 (like I had a 1200 for trials) but timing was really, really close and the questions were nice in trial so I had to cut it...

    English Creative writing

    Yeah definitely subtle is better than "I didn't belong". Personally, I don't have the word belonging at all in my creative and I know a lot of teachers recommend that as well

    Belonging Question Predictions.

    Personally, I reckon this would be heaps easy to adapt a memmed essay to. Just look at the crux of your essay and then basically shape it in that I have learnt all of the things in this essay through studying belonging and that has made me a better human being (lol its the biggest BS but you'd...

    Belonging Question Predictions.

    Oh haha that would be the biggest wank of an essay but I'd like that tbh. Basically through studying belonging, I have gained insights into fifty billion things (its importance in the determination of identity, our intrinsic need to belong, to understand others etc.) and through these insights I...

    Is it ok to move up to Advanced english After the school Exams on AOS during term 1?

    Re: Is it ok to move up to Advanced english After the school Exams on AOS during term Wait... I don't get the question... If your school will let you then definitely, definetly, definitely take the oppurtunity and move up. You wouldn't be disadvantaged in terms of what you've learnt (because...

    Is this plagiarism?

    There's a thing called turnitin that I think a lot of uni's use but honestly you'd know yourself if you plagiarised. If you wrote it yourself then don't worry about % counts etc because there's no way you would have written the exact same thing as someone else

    Belonging Question Predictions.

    The idea is to answer the question on the day. If the question asks for belonging to community and you write about belonging to place, relationships with others, identity, perceptions etc. then yes you will get marked down and so you should because what you are doing is pretty much just writing...

    BOS MX2 Trials discussion thread.

    I think I got top for MX2 with 68/100 (not in the table because he gave it to me on the day) but to be fair, I explained the working for a few of my answers to him in person so I should get docked a few marks so I think the guy that got 66 (not sure who that is) really topped it.
