    Can someone explain an aspect of the ScalingReport

    Scaled marks aren't really comparable to aligned marks by the way. Almost all HSC subjects "scale down" for most marks if you consider it that way. But scaled marks are essentially arbitrary, what matters (when discussing scaling at least) is how they scale relative to other subjects. Also...

    Test and compare your internet speed

    My ping on speedtests dropped considerably too when I got NBN, the speed is no better than what I could often get on there a few years ago with cable - but the ping has halved!

    Failing a unit/s!

    What everyone else has said, pretty much. Also, I hate to be negative, but from what i've seen people who fail a subject in first semester typically go on to fail more - unless they change their mindset in some way or decide what they are studying isnt for them. There's no point running away...

    Transferring from UWS Law to UNSW/ANU

    One thing to note is that when you transfer to UWS/UTS/MQ you are probably going to want to get credit for your commerce subjects. At UTS at least (and I assume it'd be the same in most Comm/Law and Bus/Law programs) most people who transfer into UNSW/USYD after first year do it primarily as a...

    Is there any way to install aux into my old car?

    The other option is the FM transmitters that plug into the cigarette lighter.

    Sydney property investment guru Stephanie Brennan has $2.3 million portfolio aged 24

    Re: Sydney property investment guru Stephanie Brennan has $2.3 million portfolio aged Not when, if. Just because property has been a safe investment historically, doesn't mean it always will be.

    CARS & RIDES & Mighty Car Mods

    re: CARS & RIDES & Mighty Car Mods Probably best to get something without fairing. Like a VTR250 or GS500 if you are heavy (500cc, but 80s technology) A thrashed, imported 90s zxr250, cbr250 etc. is probably a bad idea and the newer ones are all just dressed up to look like 600cc/litre bikes.

    The Superannuation Thread

    Re: Confessions That's pretty good, i'm guessing your super fund has no insurance or salary continuation at all? (dont really need it if you arent full time though) I wasnt really convinced about all that stuff before, but I went to something at work about super and now I see why a lot of super...

    Thanks for reporting this. Should be fixed now. Edit: Still seems to be issues, it's being looked into.

    Transferring to UTS business

    It's extremely unlikely that something like that would happen. By the way, internal transfers at UTS are typically just between the faculty - and sometimes even more strict than that. i.e. the Engineering and IT faculty are considered separate despite having merged.

    re: CARS & RIDES & Mighty Car Mods Maybe lamborghini should make small cars and hybrids too then.

    re: CARS & RIDES & Mighty Car Mods Cayenne and Range Rover have that segment, thought Maserati wanted it too. I thought Lamborghini would be the last to sell out.

    CARS & RIDES & Mighty Car Mods

    re: CARS & RIDES & Mighty Car Mods Lol, iirc that app was completely useless. You'd have to copy it down to the real book at the end anyway and it didn't offer any automation of note.
