    99.95 Triple State Rank Tutor Inner West

    Hi guys, I graduated as dux from Sydney Boys High School in 2010 with an atar of 99.95. I teach in the exam oriented style essential to mastering chemistry and physics. I can also accelerate course content so you'll have seen it before when it's taught at school. Most importantly, I have over...

    SBHS may relax entry requirements

    Okay, I'm just going to be very politically incorrect here. Anyway, I see this as a positive move for the school. The intake of 30/180 non-selective places shouldn't significantly dilute the academic standard but it should increase the number of anglo-Australian students from 25/180 to around...

    UWS Medicine Degree DILEMMA!

    No brainer. Postgraduate entry is extremely competitive and your university has minimal impact on your prospects in medicine (the main factor being what you do in PGY1,2,3).

    doing both umat and gamsat during the same year

    Honestly, I think that 30 hours of study will prepare you well for umat, but that's not to say that a big effort over time won't be better. It's just that you can't expect to develop your skills linearly and it's probably going to look something like this...

    2 really easy easy first year science subjects

    Actually I would suggest PHYS1901/1902 or 1001/1002. Although it's not "easy" as much as it is "straightforward" in terms of the course content and pracs, it is definitely one of the easiest subjects if you're going for a merit grade. The semester assessment is quite easy to get 95-100% in and...

    Combined med usyd.

    That being said, my reply did not take into account the fact that graduating from the PhD stream at USyd actually will help you gain a place in the more competitive speciaties. Let's not be politically correct, do you really think doctors in medical research do 0 clinical work and settle for a...

    Combined med usyd.

    Trying to be as impartial as I can, but from a purely financial perspective I think you could be better of with UWS/UNSW. Although 10k p.a might seem like an astronomical amount of money, it could mean you reach a consultant's salary a year later.

    how do you integrate 5^x?

    You know how to integrate e^kx, so write 5^x in this form. i.e. e^(ln(5)x).

    Are writing your own notes really necessary?

    There are 2 reasons for making notes: having notes and (hopefully) learning in the process of making notes. I myself rarely make notes when there's an abundance of resources but I have a friend who does very well and literally "files them away" after he's done. It really varies significantly...

    GT 86 Price

    Sorry, not sure on the exact date. Anyway, not to be captain obvious but the expected drive away price for the base GT model is probably going to be around 34K.

    GT 86 Price

    lol (hi Sav). Anyway, now that the price has been released, I'm sure this car will define a generation of motoring enthusiasts! 90% chance I'll buy one when I graduate.

    Logitech G27

    Yeah, herein lies the problem. I use the pedals on a tiled floor and they work really well-so much so that I find myself pushed back around 30 cm on my wheeled chair every few minutes. Although they're advertised as having a "carpet grip system" I think they work far better on tile. Also, I...

    Logitech G27

    I mainly play GTR2 and GTR:Evolution and I'll probably get Dirt3 soon. The current wheel I use is a $45 ebay piece of shit so whatever happens this should be good. Also, have you had any issues with a deadzone on the wheel? Will the center have any "slop" after a long session?

    Logitech G27

    Anybody have any experience with this wheel? I bought one for $195 shipped from Logitech and it looks like they're dropping the price before release of a new wheel. That being said, I honestly didn't think there would be much room for improvement so I pulled the trigger on the sale.

    "Rob them, they are Asian and they have got money"

    This is disgusting. As an aside, I think migrant communities and particularly the Chinese need to make a greater effort to integrate into Australian society but surely that does not condone this sickening act.
