I feel that languages are the only subject which get easier over time cause you become more and more fluent as you continue learning while the content itself stays at the same level of...

    Japanese Heritage Course

    If you do continuers and extension you can't do heritage, and you can't do continuers and extension if you are a native speaker Have a look at some past papers for heritage to see what it involves (the kanji is quite demanding, even for a semi native speaker I'd assume) (here is 2014)

    James Ruse interview TOMORROW?? help pls :(

    Well, James Ruse is high pressure right from the start. I don't think any other school in the country ranks people starting with year 7. Naturally, it takes some time to get used to and a lot of people feel burnt out (myself included) by year 9. BUT the great thing is that because you "burn out"...

    The truth is a bit more depressing. You might be able to gather some information from the article itself, but you will 100% not understand the headline due to copious amount of kanji (or chinese characters they use). But yea, your point is right, the standard achieved at the end of Japanese...
