I wouldn't say it was a matter of once being dumb to becoming smart. It could just be a matter of maturity. Low marks in the Junior years could be the "don't care because I'm a teenager" factor. Hard work and application to study can certainly make a big difference in Senior years or later in...

The problem with having a job is that you are working to someone else's timetable. I would actual recommend you continue doing your fun sport or social stuff. You can take time out from that without causing major harm AND use it to let off steam. If you have a family that is able to support...

"Waiting for Godot" is coming soon to Sydney! Ian McKeller and Matthew Kelly and one other guy.

Hence the reason why themes (and probably classical) are good - no words!

Summarise, summarise and summarise. Carry those short summaries with you and review when you are standing in a line, on the toilet, waiting on the phone or those times when you are wasting your life but could be doing something. Write and rewrite (that was worked for me). Hence, summaries...

The marks are in the working. You may get it wrong BUT you should get part marks for working. It all depends on where exactly you made the mistake and even then, if you work correctly with the wrong results, you can still get marks (CFPA used to be all over my exams - Correct For Previous...

HEY! I'm a parent and I used to listen to TV and Movie themes (some were rock some were classical). Being a visual person I think it helped by linking the theme with the subject so I could remember stuff better if I thought of that TV show or movie. Learnt the 1st 20 elements of the periodic...

That would indeed be the correct answer IF the current were going in the other direction. Well done!

Each branch in a parallel circuit has the same voltage across it, so the voltage in the top branch IS 18V. Now, you need to know the current in the top resistors. Rtop branch= 4 + 8 = 12 ohms Thus Itop = V/Rtop = 18/12 = 1.5A SO, the voltage across the 4ohm resistor is V4ohm = IR = 1.5 x...

Check out this website: Youthleadership.com - Resources for Preparing A New Generation of Everyday Leaders And these: 1. Moby Dick (Melville): Captain Ahab can teach us a thing or two everything about vision as it relates to leadership. 2. Catch-22 (Heller): If Heller didn’t invent and...

Hey there, I think perhaps the first thing to do is work ur your best learning style. There are three sorts: visual, auditory and kinesthetic (seeing, hearing, doing). Once you know that you can then work out a study routine that works to your strengths. Here is one questionnaire that can...

Thanks for the correction. But the bell curve, I am pretty sure, is still how they moderate marks in University. So hold onto that for later.

Questionnaire 2 For non-redheads: 1. Age . 36-45 2. Gender . Female 3. Honestly, have you ever discriminated against a redhead? No. 4. Do you think redheads are treated differently than other hair colours? No. 5. Which of these, if any, have you called a redhead: None of those listed or any...

OK this is how it was explained to me. The HSC mark you get, is the HSC mark you get, regardless of anything else you do. They take those raw marks and scale them so that there is a bell curve over the scaled mean (it was 60% in my time, 50% befor that). You do school assesments and gain a...

For the original person who started this thread. Hey there, I can completely appreciate what you are feeling. There certainly is a very competitive attitude in Years 11 and 12 because the students are trying to be the best and get the best ranking. Rather, it would be more healthy if everyone...

Hmmm, it kind of makes all those July School Holiday study camps kind of useless, then.

Though there are many passages that do indicate that life begins at conception and there is no interpretation needed. Many Psalms (particularly the one about being known at the hour of one's conception) and the jumping for joy of John in the womb at the news of Jesus' conception. Therefore...

Fun = Maths, Physics, Chem & German Not Fun = English (because the texts we studied were BORING!) But I like English now. Funny how things change.

Is it hard-boiled conventions? They probably are NOW (since everyone seems to refer to Rear Window in this sort of thing) but Hitchcock was reknowned for being ground breaking. He probably wrote the book of hard-boiled conventions.

I = current in amperes (A) q = charge in coulombs (C) n = no. of electrons e = electrical charge of one electron in coulombs (C) t = time in seconds (s) V = voltage in voltes (V) R = resistance in ohms (sigma) p (rho) = constant proportionality resistivity of a metal (in ohm metres) l = length...
