Don't make any decisions until you've found out from your teacher what the module will be. If you are a good English student and you like the area (or you could see yourself liking the area), you could give it a shot in Year 11 and drop it if it isn't working. It's a nice subject if you get a...

At first glance, the idea has some potential, but I think the problem will lie in how you deal with the show's target audience. Generally you wouldn't find sustained satirical programs in the children's market. I think you could make the case that the show is intended to appeal to both children...

Good plan to work on Music, but you also really need to think about English. Standard English students, even the top-ranked ones, very rarely pull Band 6s so the kind of score you'll get with a 7/39 rank won't be much help to you if you want 90+ ATAR. Get the English rank up a bit, work on...

~80. You need to pull up English and Maths.

The cyber police are coming for all of us!11!

Or parents could just not let their idiot foul mouthed eleven year olds onto the internet in the first place.

GOVT1105: HD GRMN1111: HD HSTY1045: D LAWS1006: D LAWS1013: Satisfied Requirements Total disincentive to end my procrastinating ways, but eh, very happy :).

One of my friends got a 46 with about 6200 words so it doesn't look like it necessarily stops you from getting an E4. Dunno about higher marks though.

Predicting: LAWS1006: C GOVT1105: D HSTY1045: D GRMN1111: HD Hopefully, at least.

Watched it all in one night, it's great. The dialogue especially. Really wanting the second season right about now ...

Not as hard I thought it would be. Because the two subjects require completely different mindsets I rarely got burned out on them (like if I was doing too much Maths I could move over and have a break with some English and vice versa). So that was good. The only really, really hard bit was...

Study. Past papers, syllabus notes etc etc. There's no magical secret to it - it's the same stuff you've been told to do all the way through high school :).

I love this. All my favourite paranoia-inducing spy films/TV series are now true.

Give it a go. Your ranks are great and it won't hurt to try. Personally I found 4U Maths, 4U English and Extension History to be a bit too much work so I dropped History, but I'm glad I tried it out.

Uni's only really stressful if you make it stressful (at least in my courses). And IMO it doesn't have anything on the pressure of the HSC. If you're panicking about trials etc, maybe sit back and take stock of what you need to do. Spend some time making lists and identifying what you actually...

Usenet. or eztv.

Yeah, don't drop d&t straight away because you're not going to know how you'll feel about the course for a while. I had a few scripts in my MW and it was a really rewarding medium to write in. I probably liked it more than the short story medium in the end.

Wow. Good job there, MQ.

Free!! Dear Geopolitics lecturer: it would have been really good if the exam paper you handed out to ~600 people was free of typos, bad capitalisation, poorly constructed sentences and extraneous punctuation. Just a thought.

Mixture. My feeling is that natural intelligence means you just have to work a bit less than everyone else for the same marks, but if you really want to do well you should try just as hard anyway. ATARs are based on a year's worth of work. You don't just hand UAC a copy of your MENSA...
