Ermergerd photographic memory

Wow, I actually heard about that. Wasn't it because of her retirement? Good on you for sticking with the subject :3 I would've sticked if it weren't for the bad teacher... turns out she left the school last week and was replaced by an awesome one.

Originally I did legal but the teacher was so bad I switched. Physics was the only option left sadly. But I'm actually enjoying Physics at the moment :P

Hahaha still adjusting. Thanks :)

Don't worry, only NSBHS has circle geo and some extension topics for Year 10 and they are known to give very difficult tests. So you should be fine. No I wasn't admitted to Fort, but a different school.

Unless it's impossible to change to a different teacher, I'd say go for it and drop Physics.

The epitome of EE1 :)

Yeah I think it was around 20. Don't worry though, as far as I know, there wasn't much problem solving. It was more straightforward 'find the gradient of this' what is the trigonometric ratio of that'. I don't think anyone finished the paper as well so you shouldn't worry if you don't. Most...

If your brother goes to Sydney Boys, I recommend you DEFINITELY apply there. Because a relative of yours goes there, you have a much higher probability of making it in (say you have identical credentials with another candidate, then you'd be the favourite). I sat the Fort Street test last year...

Received three half-yearlies results today. 2U - 51/64. I did slightly better than average in my school. 3U - 47/60. I did better in this test than I did in 2U in terms of how well I ranked against my cohort. Physics - 16.5/30. I was ranked 68/~100 in my cohort. Receiving my first test...

Ahh it must be just me then. :( It feels as if at the moment there is too much work to do in proportion to it being only 1 unit. Most of the people who took up EE1 this year have plans to drop it next year anyway, so I guess I'll just have to suck it up.

Let's flip to the other side of the spectrum. Extension English is a nightmare.

How do you determine 'appropriate'? And if you're talking about the minimum required amount of units, then yes, that is sufficient.

How do they determine your half-yearly reports then?

I definitely think English should be compulsory. We now live in a world where English is pretty much needed for almost every job. Also, if you don't take up English and go into Uni pursuing a degree in Law for example, you're going to have a really, really tough time catching up. Although I do...

In what area are you situated? It would be easier to give you recommendations to your vicinity.

School rank?

Yeah that's true. I guess I kind of view now as the last time to truly have a break before Year 12 starts.

Half-yearlies are finally over! No more major assessments till the Yearlies! Yay!

At this stage hoping for 91+ for civil engineering at UNSW.
