I like simple explanations that are clear in composition. I a textbook that has clear explanations for "idiots" and questions that are designed to mirror HSC ones.
maybe we should write one after we finish the hsc.:graduate:

hahaha, i had no idea :p


textbooks dont make a huge difference. if u work thru the syllabus, each text will give u enuff information. then there is also the net, Bos, etc. so u cant really use the fact that u dont have a good text as an excuse....but u can try

LOL @ Rahul?
You do 3 core modules + 1 option topic.
What's the go?

Space is in my top 4 modules, because I only do 4 modules? (I'm not taking the piss out of you, I just thought it sounded weird?)

Or are you saying that given the opportunity to do all modules, (3 core, all the options), then Astrophysics is in the top 4? :confused: :p :D

I dont mind surfing..its just that we have two other textbooks, which the whole class has, and the teacher has the surfing book...its just a waste of paper when she photocopies only the surfing and we dont use any other resources...
