Just a quick question for Communication... The structure of the larynx? Is it good enough to know that it contains the vocal cords which are muscles that can vary their length, size and tension to adjust pitch as air is pushed from the lungs via diaphragm action? And this sound can then be...

That will throw at least 90% of people if they do... The consolation is that if there are shit questions, they'll be shit for the majority of people so there is no real disadvantage. If not, then it's a reflection on what you should have studied :/ I'm hoping for a lot of space and motors and...

It was pretty good... glad that it would throw a lot who rely on pre-prepared creatives. I focused on the relationship between a wife whose husband beats her and the man that kills him for drug money, how the actions of one affected the other etc. Mine was pretty much entirely off the cuff, I...

Loved this exam.. It would have sorted out so many people who went in with completely pre prepared essays and creatives, plus I think the 'responsibility' aspect of the crime question had a few interesting interpretations and the focus on character would have really screwed some people over. I...

Hey! Just wondering who has applied and for what courses? Also, does anyone know how we are notified? I know they send a letter but do they also email you on the offer release date? (11th of November on the CSU website....) I applied for a Bachelor of Physiotherapy :)

The shape of the tent was actually close to two trapeziums... So the trapezoidal rule gave a better estimate as it split the area into two trapeziums that would have been roughly the same as the actual shape of the tent.. If that makes sense lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

Compared to last year's, holy crap. It was so difficult! And annoying too, it seemed to include a lot more questions aimed at extension students and limited the ability of 2U students to demonstrate what they do know.. I get they can't make it easy but if they only test the top 5% of students...

Hey just a quick question... When writing answers what form do they usually want it in? For example, probability could be a fraction or a decimal, integral could be in terms of pi or an approximate decimal, equations of a line could be in gradient intercept or general form etc.. Obviously if...

As I've been told, it's a big no no. The point of related texts is to demonstrate wide reading and research into the concepts found in the modules. If you pick a text from the prescribed list, it looks kind of lazy and like you are just trying to prevent any extra work in analysis. If it was...

Note the 'in a fixated manner'. Haven't studied the Smithsonian website, but my guess is it has to do with originality and counter arguments. Of course that is one main aspect, but if you can argue from a different side or focus on another aspect of the text you have a one-up on most others...

Hey, so I'm studying Levertov's poems as a prescribed text for History and Memory. My question is, as it is a selection of poems that is our prescribed text, how many are we expected to analyse in depth in our essay? In my generic essay I have analysed 4 in depth plus a related text, but I'm way...

Looking at studying Physio at UoN too! :) Actually, I'm currently deciding my location....This may seem like a silly question, but how is Newcastle seen as a university in terms of prestige? Like if you were to go an apply for a job afterwards, how would Newcastle stand up against other...

I had a brand new jetstream, and I had rewritten my Physics and Biology notes which amounts to around 250 pages of 12 point font. It ran out literally as I finished the last page lol

I should have been clearer. I am actually doing solid work. If I sat down and tried to do what I spend all day doing in the loungeroom, while locked away in my room it would still take me hours and hours to do the same amount. Each day I've managed to completely rewrite ~50 pages of typed notes...

I do get stressed out, but it's more of a mental thing, not so much burning out. Instead of thinking "okay, so I have 6 hours of study today with no distractions, no tv no music etc" that takes a lot more motivation to do than thinking "So I'll do my work for today in the lounge-room until it's...

Your studies of religion mark might hurt, but as you have more than 10 units it will cancel out if moderation doesn't work in your favour. Just a tip to help maximise...if you feel you are running out of time to study, focus on your worse subjects first. For example if your General Maths mark is...

Anybody else exceedingly paranoid about misreading the HSC timetable? I swear, I can't stop double checking the times and days :| On another note, I'm feeling decent about spending literally all day rewriting my notes while in front of the TV. I figure a full day of study while multitasking is...

I tend to use 40/40/40, though I sometimes go a tiny bit over for the essay and compensate by doing the unseen section a bit quicker (I read quickly). Do NOT skimp on your creative....that is where people lose their marks! Even if you can churn out 1000 words in 35 minutes, put an extra 5...
