I go to a Catholic High School and we get apple laptops in a few weeks as a part of a Wollongong Diocese program. Apparently our principal got a letter from Julia Gillard providing us with additional funds to do so aswell!

Do Pleasantville. It's a really excellent film which demonstrates change and has been used in the past as a HSC related text for the AOS change. We watched it in english last year and it's brilliant for a related text. The cinematography and mise en scene is also easy to analyse in relation to...

I don't know about this particular competition, but in past Youth of the Year-type competitions I've been involved with, the best thing to do is to speak about what you know and are comfortable and passionate about. If the audience and more importantly adudicators can tell you actually put...

I want my UAI as high as possible: 95-100 If I aim any lower then I'll slacken off, get complacent and fail :)

good luck to all those people who have spent their summer holidays learning whole syllabuses and topics, you have more discipline than me. this is only year 11 (except for those accelerated), so don't we just find out how to study effectively and suss out what works for 2010?

I haven't been studying, though I did have to read a novel for Eng Advanced this year. People doing Mathematics Adv and Ext were given booklets to complete the first prelim topic though. We got told this our last holiday for 2 years so relax while we can!

I hated PS I Love You, it bored me, so based on my opinion I would go with 2 Days in Paris because the title seems a bit substantial. same with the Painted Veil

I'm not doing maths next year, but my year 10 teacher told us that if you do advanced/extension you need a whopping big grid book and a normal lined exercise book for explanations/theory and then a display folder for worksheets and past papers. That may be completely innacurate, but that's...

Oh, okay I don't know what to do... My plan was for each subject have an exercise book and display folder for eveyrthing at school. For study I would have a binder with loose leaf divided into topics because I hand write all of my notes???

aw you shouldn't feel like that, everyone has a different style and as long as it works then that's awesome

Yeah i'm also having the same problem. I have myself put down for economics atm but i'm not sure about it so I may change to ancient history. Do I change it before having my first economics class or do I give it a few days and see whether I like it?

So If I get 192p A4 exercise book and a display folder ( for worksheets what a pain flipping back and forth) for every subject, that should work? I hate it when books fall apart half way through the year, hence the staples not binding

Yeha I'm looking forward to year 11 actually. But scared its going to be overwhelming... my subject are in my signature and im dreading economics though, its a hard-ish subject

If my notes and sheets correlate then I write the heading of the worksheet up the top of my notes....

Re: 2008SC SC Results ~ Yep, I agree. The guy who got 1st place for the year in science at my school got an 87 and I, who is not doing any science next year and who got 77 in my trial walked out with a 93... I'm ecstatic but also kinda confused. So yeah, I get that it may not always be a good...

Two good websites are Sparknotes and Cliffsnotes = lifesavers

The exact same as me... For my maths outcomes I got: D, C,C, B so my teacher gave me a B grade :haha:

Am I going in to politics? No, but you have no idea how many people have asked me that in the past 12 months. If my brother gets the UAI he wants, then he will be though. But if I do suddenly feel the desire to be PM, I will remember you 'little people' haha :p I always stick to my...

Oh yeah that's fine. My room is so messy, yet when it comes to school I like full on organisation and that means as many display folders as I may need

Our deputy principal told us that this is our last free holidays with no work to do, because after these hols its all work, study and assignments. So I'm bludging and reading a book for English next year and organising exercise books. I'm going on a cruise so I can't wait to just get away...
