    Study smarter not harder! Make sure you're doing the study sessions in short bursts, you'll remember more that way :)

    Inverse Fuctions

    You have to do it the long way because you don't learn hyperbolic functions explicitly in the HSC courses and they asked for it in terms of log. But it is indeed sinh inverse :)

    Why does english standard and advance scale the same according to ATAR calculator???

    Re: Why does english standard and advance scale the same according to ATAR calculator It's not a theory, it is a fact. The advanced and standard streams of english are scaled as one but aligned differently; see the document below, page 29...

    HSCers! What were YOU actually doing during Prelims?

    Enjoy high school while you can, year 11 is as bludgy as it gets in senior years. If you're motivated enough, go get a job.

    How To Get Your Dream ATAR

    You must be blind. I'd do it all over again; i got everything i wanted with my ATAR. Managed to get into uni and my dream course, got an the one scholarship (and others) that i wanted and pleased my family without compromising much of my social life. But, if i were to aim for 99.95 instead in...

    Do you like it?

    I love most aspects of uni - the open environment, the freedom and the awesome people/societies. I do hate how some courses do not have books that correspond chronologically to the course/lecture outline, but that's my only complaint so far. Oh and massive 3/4 hr breaks such that lectures are...

    What should i drop?

    ^ I'd rather get a high band 5 for economics than a band 6 in general But seeing as you seem to want to do general, do general. Enjoy counting boxes to find the gradient/slope of lines :)

    Red Dead redemption?

    Hmmm i may buy it now, especially if it is long. I hate games that have ridiculously short single player modes.

    Titration.

    Doesn't matter but if your indicator is phenolpthalein, i suggest you put the the acid in the conical flask as colourless to pink is easier to see than the other way around :)

    Give up computer games for HSC. Yay or Nay?

    If you're addicted to games like I am, compromise. Make a realistic list of things you should do by the end of the day and get it all done. Then, game like there's no tomorrow. Repeat :)

    Question on polynomials (3 and 4 unit).

    ^ +1 Yes, but your tutor will have to teach you all the prerequisite polynomial skills which'll cover 3u polynomials :)

    them Sydney Trains moments

    Re: cityrail moments Wow, I'm glad i'm not on the Western Line much. The South line is usually packed but nothing remotely exciting happens unless you're on a train at say 11pm on a saturday night xD

    Is race a biological difference or a social construct?

    +1 If race were really subspecies, then breeding would be a lot more difficult than it is.

    How To Get Your Dream ATAR

    Sleep. Dear heavens, sleep! I did an english exam after a night/morning of gaming and felt awful - ending up falling asleep half way through it and getting a crappy mark lol. Thankfully that was in year 11, not in year 12. If you're in year 11, find your best study method. That is, work out...
