Stuck on part iii beta of this q thanks in advance

Subjects in the HSC course. JR accelerate in year 9.

Re: Truong's tutoring, any comments? It's hard to make an assumption about him till you actually meet him, go to one of his lessons. Then you can make a judgement about him.

Re: Truong's tutoring, any comments? Apparently he doesn't.

lol, is it true ruse uses the marks to their decimal points to determine the ranks?

Tennis was either 7th or 8th. Few years ago we actually came first in it. Maths is definitely the best department - awesome teachers (on a whole); 120 kids and an average of 70 ish band sixes. Can't compare it to the number of 4 u kids at ruse, but our exams are of similiar difficulty, if...

I have a friend who goes to Dr Du for physics and he says its terrible because they do nothing in class - he is planning to drop it next term. I don't go to either for physics (or maths for that matter)

They are dead easy.. seriously. Especially the science and writing comps

Wow man.. that's some committment... Seriously 2 hours can make quite a difference in studying ..

They normally have a form of 210 students, but in saying that, this year's year 11 is only around 200 (apparently they are a dodgy year). In the past SB have taken in about 30 guys in year 11, but I think this year was the last year where they were taking in so many guys for year 11 (there were...

lol GPS, stands for greater public schools. It's a sporting competition between private schools such as Grammar, Kings, Ignatius and the only public school, Sydney Boys. TBH, Sydney Boys are don't do well in some sports (like rugby lol), but are decent in some sports.

That's where excellent reports come in.. Plus academic competitions. They try to take some of the best students from the lower ranked schools who apply.

lol, here goes the argument again about which public school is best at sports :D Apply for Sydney Boys and IMO he'll have a good chance - they look for basketballers ( they play GPS basketball) and having a decent academic report would definitely help.

I'm just making a guess; if your school report is red hot, and you go to a lowly ranked school, or a not so academic one, I think the school will look at your marks/certificates that you attained in competitions, as they are more of a fairer indicator of how you achieve.. so they can kind of...

If you do want to buy the surfing series, try looking at some second hand textbook stores. You might get lucky and find mint conditions surfing series book at half price or even less of the RRP (20 bucks)

What's your current school? Your results at your current school may just reflect the standard of your school, e.g. 90% at your school will differ to a 90% at say, a selective school in a subject like maths. From memory, Sydney Boys High and James Ruse don't require tests to get in. They...

lol @ lines of best fit. Reminds me of science. I know some private schools actually create the timetables from scratch and try to accomadate as many people's first choices as possible.. Of course, it takes into account the number of people who apply for that subject; whether or not there...

o.O Swine flu at Abbotsleigh. well, despite the fact that its unfair.. well, there isnt much you can do about it really. Just spend the rest of the time practising the monologue, rather then being concerned about how unfair it is.

Hate english doing pretty good at it also, physics isn't one of my favorite subjects (probaly due to its difficulty) yet surprisingly its my strongest subjects

Seriously, don't drop it. As the other guys have said, you've done brilliantly in advanced, so don't even contemplating dropping it.
