Re: The Official Tennis Thread Murray was so close. His performance was definitely a lot better this year & he had quite a smooth run. The switch to a new coach was a smart decision for him. Djokovic vs. Nadal for the Men's final.

Glad I got you addicted. Now you have some programming activity at least once a week. :)

Maybe you have found all of them. :P I shall let you know when the NCSS Challenge will be running. There's also CodeYear which you can sign up for which emails you weekly about Codecademy. You start learning javascript & they plan on adding python later.

:O Thank you for these Spiral! They're actually from the NCSS Challenge (site is currently down) which teaches you how to program in python over 5 weeks. It's fun. :) If you type in some search terms & 'filetype:pdf' you may find some nice presents. :)

Yay! :D Spiral is doing cool things.

:) Try the YouTube channel 'thenewboston'. Khan Academy too! trypython.org may be of some use too. Sign up to Project Euler. I think you may like it. I've never tried Pascal before.

Python is very fun. I think that variable thing is correct, not sure as I haven't really learnt any other programming languages. I have heard that Python is the closest to Pseudocode. Lots of resources out there to learn Python too.

Advanced English - Excel covers all of the AOS books but I don't recommend Excel as it isn't the best you can get. Try to borrow it from the library if possible. There's also a brand called Top Notes which is pretty good. You can also order some pretty cheap study guides for some books online...

Coding resources are very easy to find. It's just a matter of finding resources related to the SDD syllabus. Any particular programming language you are looking at learning?

SDD past papers are so hard to find. They don't stock any more of the Excel SDD books because the syllabus was changed. :(

I purchased the Mathematics Extension 1 HSC Practice Papers with Worked Solutions by Coroneos today. :) It was $16.95, I'm surprised it was under $30! More maffs work.

Exams & assignment difficulty can vary from school to school. Most schools chose to sit the Independent or CSSA exams for the yearlys or trials. Are you in year 10 or year 11 this year?

Wow, I'm surprised your friend managed to get into uni with a cert 3. I thought you at least had to complete a diploma. Whichever course you end up doing you should aim to get a Distinction in all your units. TAFE is actually offering a Bachelor in IT degree (Network Security). It might be...

Re: The Official Tennis Thread Women's final: Victoria Azarenka vs. Maria Sharapova. Prepare for a lot of shrieking. The winner of the final will become No. 1.

Usually the first 2-3 weeks of school are free travel for high school students as we don't receive our bus or train passes until the 3rd week of school. This means that you can try out both routes and see which one you prefer. Personally, I think going by train and bus is a lot faster. That 1...

What exactly is the name of the course you are studying at TAFE? The subjects that you do may be a factor in transferring into Uni.

The Big Bang Theory, Chuck, Community, True Blood

I come bearing gifts... Oh wait. It's still uploading.

Not yet. I get mine on Monday. I haven't seen anyone with their timetable yet.

If you decide to use Prezi make sure you don't go overboard & make the audience dizzy. There's also SlideRocket. Video clips can help keep the attention of the audience. Infographics are great for presentations as they give the audience some statistics in a nice form.
