    Two Shakespeares and One Cup

    In case you're interested, my memory just jolted (finally, and very randomly too) - "The Arrival", by Shaun Tan. A beautiful picture book =)

    Share your 2009 ATAR here

    It depends how you define 'succeed' in regards to the HSC. I would call my HSC results a success (95+ ATAR), but I still enjoyed my holidays - maybe spending the last week of the Christmas holidays doing the holiday assignments I'd been given (I think I had 2 or 3?). So I would have to say...

    Two Shakespeares and One Cup

    Don't do two Shakespearean texts - in fact, it's not recommended that you even do 2 dramas. Try to get a variety of text types. My English teacher told me on numerous occasions that the related materials you use shouldn't be of the same text type (well, it's ok to prepare 2 texts of the same...

    5 Fruit and Veg a day

    Wow, not even per week?! CRAZY! When I went to Asia at the end of last year, I went without real veggies/plant matter for about 2 days, between plane food, maccas in Malaysia, more plane food... etc etc... I pretty much wanted to run up to the nearest tree in Cambodia and take a bite out of...

    Structuring ideas and essay for Frankenstein/BR

    I found the best way to structure my "frankenblade" essays, similar to the way you have described, is to take it one idea at a time, and one text at a time. For example: Paragraph 1: The significance of nature and its role in the human experience is explored in Shelley's 'Frankenstein' through...

    Question on Locus and Parabola

    Before you do the question, do you understand what the terms Directrix and Focus mean? If you can find a diagram which points this out it may be easier to understand. When finding the locus, it is best to have the parabola in the form (x-b)^2 = 4a(y-h) where a, b and h are numbers which can...

    minimal study and pulling out with a mid 90?

    "minimal study" is a very flexible term depending on your own standards. I worked hard in 09, but I still considered my study to be "minimal", in that I only studied what I had to such that I had a basic grasp of all content. I didn't go overboard like some people did. I think you can study...

    Anyone going to UNCLE?

    Well, I know a few people who currently do Biomed at UNCLE, but i don't know anyone going into their first year.... i'm not sure about the number of places either. All I know is that, from reading the undergraduate degrees course book, the 2009 UAI cut-off was 86. =]
