so did i, but it helped knowing that there were people out there who were experiencing the same things as me.

i got help from cafs and society forums, because they involved major projects and it was good to return the favour to others. :)

thanks bos!! :D

didnt make much of a difference

sorry guys. I still love you all.

mostly because i needed help on either

texts with no notes available eg

On Giant Shoulders
In The Skin Of A Lion

or they're pure majorworks so notes arent specific, which is expected

eg:

English Extension 2
Visual Arts
Music Extension

I spent more time browsing the forums than studying. If I get into my desired course, I will sell my excess body parts and donate the cash to BOS. If I don't get into my desired course I will fire bomb you, your families and your places of employment/study.

For those who bomb out the HSC, dont worry theres still pathways.

Listen to "Good Charlotte - I Just Wanna Live" and you will understand.

hell yes i used this site. the people who put up those extensive chem and physics syllabus dot point summaries saved my bacon :) i startd making my own originally, but towards term 2 just couldn't be bothered being that meticulous anymore. the ones on here and on hsc online were really helpful to supplement my own notes.

I must confess, I used the English resources a great deal in preparing my essays. I know for a fact my English results would have been worse had I not used these resources.

haha yeah .. i paraphrased and squished all the english essays into one ball for my english exam.. so great help there.

Then the physics and maths boards were a great help too.. the only thing was art which I just bullshitted.

Thanks BOS. for all those hours of my life you've wasted away.
