    IP Performance (Monologue)

    Okay, so my IP is going to be performance (monologue) and I haven't a clue what I am doing let alone where good monologues are to find. I want a serious or funny monologue but have no ideas for it and I don't want to be cliched. Does anyone know a good place either in the Blue Mountains or...

    BOS. TOTALLY SUCKS MY CHINESE RESULT WAS CHANGED FROM 76 TO 90.

    Life goes on. People would be thrilled to get the marks you have. For example, I would be over the moon if I got a band 5 in all of my subjects. Especially Japanese.

    Has anyone got an ATAR of 99.90/99.95 without doing Extension 2 maths??

    My sister did well even with English E2, she did Art, General Maths, Advance-E2, & Legal studies and gotten a UAI of 96.3. But in other words, if you don't do an extension, just heads down, butt up and study.

    Has anyone got an ATAR of 99.90/99.95 without doing Extension 2 maths??

    +1 I say screw scalling of subjects do what interests you and floats your boat. Just think, it would be better enjoying Art for example than failing like a whale in Maths E2.

    EXCEL STUDY BOOKS - are they good?

    There is a Japanese one and I as skimming through the book and it's pretty good, coming from a Japanese POV with all the practice questions for all sections of the exam & they divided up with the 3 topics in the syllabus. My sister who graduated in 2005 and got the UAI (back then before ATAR) of...

    GPs ..do yous get to form your own or is your teacher giving you them like me?

    Ours is like, we write three lists, those that we want and can work with, those who we can but don't mind to work with & those who we can't work with at all. The teachers will sort out the groups for it. We did that once when we were doing performance of Aussie plays & I got a group that I can...

    DUBBO / other correspondence schools...

    I kind of agree. I was about to do Chinese Beginners at OHS but since my Japanese class was cancelled I chose Japanese over Chinese (the Head of Curriculum at my school told me it was too much work doing two subjects through correspondence). But I prefer a face-to-face teacher even if I am on...

    DUBBO / other correspondence schools...

    I just want to ask, is doing a subject through OTEN/Dubbo similar to doing a language through Open High School? For example, you get work from your teacher and you have to send it weekly, then have a phone/Skype/etc lesson with your teacher? I am really curious because I know a friend who is...

    Open High School

    +1 As long as you like the language you are doing, being motivated to do the work, traveling to Randwick a couple of times a year for Face-to-Face lessons or exams, then enroll. ^.^

    OHS Japanese Continuers???

    +1 I remember doing Prelim Japanese Cont. @ OHS, they told me just to do the CP and forget the booklet, then recently my Japanese teacher at my school, who I could of have if there were enough people in my class (I was the only one doing it), said that I shouldn't listen to my OHS teacher...

    Is it possible?

    The course I wanted to get into (well one of them) needs an ATAR of 98.45-ish (flexible entrance needs me to get a Band 5 in Japanese & get at least a 92 ATAR). Is it possible for me to get the mark? No. people in my year = 70 No. people in English Standard = 24 Rank: Maybe 10 No. people in...

    10 units vs 12 units???

    I do 10 Unites, much easier to focus on the subjects that I actually do care about and I know I can get good marks. But I think the "bad" side of doing 10u is that you can't fall back on a subject if everything goes pear shaped. If you want to focus the subjects that you KNOW you can do well &...

    OHS languages

    If you think you are capable of it, go right ahead. Depending on your teacher, then they can really help you. I don't know other departments at OHS except for Japanese, but I only experienced two teachers from the Japanese department within a term. My old teacher was a massive hag who was just...
