    Call from Telstra about Internet

    Haha, I just thought that if it was some sort of scam people on BOS may have heard of it. But thanks anyway anomalous and square! :) I will ask neighbours if they have received similar phone calls tomorrow.

    Call from Telstra about Internet

    Hey. Has anyone else received a call from Telstra recently saying that there is a problem with the Internet that needs to be fixed otherwise the Internet connection will be disconnected? I'm not even on Telstra... Thanks. Edit: Basically anyone know if it's legit or if I should be worried?

    Is it plagiarism to have your character say a quote of a person?

    Well, it depends. If the quote is very long eg a paragraph, I would not recommend your character quote it. However, if it is short (and obvious who you are quoting + the quoting helps develop your story in some way) then it should be fine. Note: I did Textual Dynamics and one of my characters...

    Racial discrimination in HSC language courses

    Well, mostly because there is no guarantee that you (or in this case, she) will get a better mark. People tend to feel bored when repeating a subject for the second time and will consequently become unmotivated. When you are unmotivated, you are less likely to put in more effort in order to...

    Distinctively Visual - Run Lola Run Related Texts?

    Wow you study Run Lola Run in Standard?! I love that movie :) I'm not sure what you mean by 'distinctively visual'. Since Run Lola Run is a film, it would be unwise to use another film as a related text.

    Racial discrimination in HSC language courses

    I don't think that's racial discrimination. There's probably just a lot more background Chinese speakers than background German speakers.

    Need help asap if i should keep extension

    Do you enjoy doing extension and do you feel that you understand the texts? From your first post I don't see why you are thinking about dropping extension. Nor why you think you may have been marked easily last year.

    What effect will my school ranking and cohort have on my ATAR?

    Yes. Unless someone else beat you in the external exam eg by scoring 97. then, this becomes your internal mark. Then you would get the average of external (95) and new internal (97) = overall mark of 96

    What effect will my school ranking and cohort have on my ATAR?

    If you are ranked at the top, your cohort will have limited impact on your atar. If you come first internally and external, you will get your HSC mark as your school mark regardless of how the rest of the year goes. Hope this helps! :)
