    Penrith or Fort St

    You realise nothing happens if you lie about your preferences? They aren't cross references. The list is only used if, for example you try out for two schools that use the same commercial paper. E.g. Normanhurst Boys, Hornsby Girls and Girraween. So if I'm so incredibly talented to try out...

    industrial separation processes

    Give a more specific question and I'll gladly answer it. Not your assignment though, a question on what you do/don't understand.

    Why is CO2 less soluble in salt water than fresh water?

    Because CO2 only dissolves due to the dispersion forces between H2O and CO2 (remember, dispersion forces exist between everything its just how strong they are). And the ion-dipole bond with Na+ Cl- with the H2O is much stronger than any dispersion force, and hence, CO2 is has much less free...

    Coaching rates?

    yes but it depends on your qualifications. I mean if you got 99.95 a few state ranks, 100th percentile UMAT, and you're coming first in med in your last year before graduation you'd be worth a lot. but if you're just some first year uni guy who got 90 and did 3u math you wouldn't be worth much...

    Coaching rates?

    group, anything over $20 an hour is ridiclous... like seriously just look at Dr Du… shoving as many students possible into one room at his overpriced costs. I understand the homework is very good and he had a doctorate in mathematics but still it seems so greedy to gain $50 x 50 students for one...

    subject difficulty

    phys maybe? Physics can get quite hard, but unless you go to a private school like grammar, which steers off the syllabus ALOT, it should be relatively easy. The same goes with mathematics extension 1. Personally, for me 90+ eng is a dream (ignore the sig, I'm just making shit up. I'll never...

    Biology or Economics?

    In essence, no. UMAT is derived into 3 sections, which are no longer marked as 3 sections: 1: Logical Reasoning and Problem Solving 2: Understanding People 3: Non-Verbal Reasoning Nothing about bio. But the problem is, GAMSAT. this requires 1st year uni bio and chem, and HSC phys. I know you'll...

    PHYSICS or Economics??

    THIS. +1 Physics makes so much more sense to me. But some people hate it. Physics textbooks are :/ so I'd recommend a tutor if youre doing phys.

    How do you "self-learn?"

    it depends on what subject really. :/ Eng: practise and ask peers to edit Maths: past papers. in maths for me, understanding the concept doesnt mean you can do q's. its actually doing the q's that count. Sci: textbooks. I cannot stress this fact enough The more you read, the better and more...

    Difference between Casion FX-82ES and FX-82AU ??

    on the AU you have to press the S<->D button for a perfect fraction While on the ES it gives it to you in fraction form regardless. For decimal, press the S <-> D button. Also, the ES provides roots (type root(8)) in, and it gives you 2root(2). Does surd conjugates and shit too. It has the...

    Should I do 4 unit maths?

    from the amount of 4u I've done (75% of the course ish), 4unit is really about critically thinking about questions that examiners can really just pull out of their ass. there are obscure questions that really fuck students over, but while I'm not pretending to be a state rank student or...

    HSC Maths textbooks

    I find that textbook hard to understand and the questions are not complex enough to my liking (4unit student here who likes harder 3unit questions)

    Question about exam questions

    In the HSC, and in this case, they will always look at the first three answers. Any more provided after third one will simply be crossed out with their bold red pen, and regardless if its wrong or right they will not consider it in their marking criteria. It's like multiple choice and you circle...

    What happens if i fail a subject?

    There's someone in my class for eco that has completely failed, but its alright, according to the social science head teacher. For the 10 units, for you to go onto the HSC with those ten units: "you must satisfactorily complete 10 units at both the preliminary and HSC standard". The other...
