    your opinions on experimenting with drugs.. while on schoolies?

    The reason why the media emphasizes that drugs are bad is because 90% of the people who take them are morons who will eventually get addicted, overdose and die. IMO the risks of taking drugs far outweigh a few hours of pleasure. Some of you on this forum are arrogant and proud of the fact that...

    Should Maths be Compulsory?

    For all you people saying yr 12 maths is not needed in most jobs, you're wrong! We learn how to do superannuation and time-repayments... it helps with budgeting. And I seriously most people will need essays in future jobs, perhaps for university but really that's it. (Unless you become an...

    Natural Rubber - Non-Renewable?

    Well by that logic oxygen shouldn't be a renewable source either and we should all be dead. I think renewable means it takes an exceedingly long time to replace, so much that it is deemed near impossible to replace it. (i.e. fossil fuels take millions of years). By that definition synthetic...

    failing 3 UNIT MATHS---WHAT SHOUD I DO?

    Maths is the sort of subject anyone can do with hard work, so don't give up on it. I went from a 24% in yr 11 (lol rank 100/110 or so) to a 97% now. It just takes hardwork, just do all your homework, extra work and don't ask for help if your stuck on a question. You gotta learn how to think for...

    Love of success or fear of failure?

    R4 for DS, anyone?

    http://www.bamboogaming.com was cheapest last time I heard. I got my M3 for $39 when it was on special. You can get micro SD cards real cheap off ebay, I think I got it a 2GB one for $30 but it may have gotten cheaper since.

    good horror movie?

    Asian horrors are always scarier than western ones. I watched the grudge when I was around 13 and that stayed with me for a while.

    All These Smart People On Bos

    On another note some people find physics/chem/maths easy compared to humanities subjects. Different people have different ways of thinking, I think intelligence should not be measured by how well a person does in logical subjects.

    All These Smart People On Bos

    Well sometimes its to do with intelligence (logical thinking) but for the most it's hard work. Even a person who is logical and has a very high IQ will have difficulty doing maths if they never practice.

    All These Smart People On Bos

    What is with the racism in this topic? Generally people whom visit this site are smart because the really dumb people don't care about their studies enough to come here. And for all the asian talk going on here: 1. Asians tend to pick subjects which aren't very english-based i.e. Maths...

    How to quit a tutor?

    Yep dead serious. She's really evil and scary. If you don't do your homework each week she yells at you. She yells even louder when you do bad in her exams. EDIT: Holy crap! What if she visits BOS? I hope she doesn't read this post.

    How to quit a tutor?

    If your tutor is as demanding and strict as my previous math tutor, I advise you not to lie. Trust me I tried and she picked me out in one second. Me: This is my last lesson here. Her: WHY?! Me: Um...because I live too far Her: Well that's a pathetic excuse ain't it?
