    Method of Sections Question

    yea that method works just fine (Y) :) and yes your teacher should be helping you with this. it's a foundation thing you need to know. Here's what i believe is an easier method of thinking of method of sections: - generally the toughest you'll get is three unknowns like in this question. so...

    Engineering Scaling

    the scaling isn't so great unless your class average and your mark are VERY good. in my grade we had a class average a full 19 marks above the state average so we all got scaled very well. how well you scale is literally up to you so just forget about scaling and just work hard and the marks...

    Russia Essay Question's, Thesis' and Plans

    tad late, i know, but better late than never. using the civil war as a vehicle for consolidation of bolshevik power is a good idea but in my opinion it's restricting your thesis focusing just on that. there are other factors such as winning the vote of the peasants etc. think about the whole...

    the structure of the exam is the same. know sketching mechanics and ethics etc. really only way to say it is a bit of everything. consider doing all the hsc papers. they really help.

    Engineering Question/Answer Textbook/Website Source Recommendations?

    I've heard Rochford is good. Copeland is quite definitive (as it's name suggests) but it lacks in certain details. Schlenker McKern is fantastic for HSC and Prelim Mechanics Excel didn't seem all that great to me. has some bugs

    Yr12 Engineering Studies help.

    hey guys, Copeland (or "The New Testament" as we called it) is pretty decent in that he'll cover all the main points. However he doesn't go into too much detail. See if you can find Schlenker's Materials Science Textbook as Copeland lacks a lot of depth in that field. Go through the dotpoints of...
