    Can schools force subject choice? - the official opinion from the Board

    This question has come up quite a few times, so I emailed the Board last month asking for their opinion. This came in today, with all the nice vagueness that Board letters always have. My interpretation of it is: yes, schools CAN force you to do/not do certain subjects. Hope this clears it up.

    Worst textbooks

    What's the worst textbook you've been issued with yet this term? (Either size and weight, or content.) So far Jacaranda Physics 2 (I think that's what it is) is the largest textbook I've received since I started at my school at the beginning of this year. It's almost A4 sized and 550 pages...

    English exam failures

    Anyone else do really badly in their English exam? I ran out of time, so I ended up with basically no Section III (looking at maybe 2/15), and a very, very, abrupt ending to Section II (perhaps 5-8/15). I think I did OK in Section I though (maybe 10-12/15). Overall I'd be looking at 40%...

    Today the results summaries arrived, did anyone else get it in an envelope where the flap is on the wrong side? (the bottom, not the top)

    Assessment ranks and overall mark estimates?

    My assessment rank was 2/4. Knowing my class I would estimate a mark of perhaps 70-80 overall :(

    Anyone got a paper out?

    Has anyone managed to get any part of the tests out of the exam room? Our supervisors said no part of any paper was to leave the room so I assumed they'd stop me even for taking the non-writing section out. Interestingly in the HSC they have no problem with that.
