    Does this happen everywhere or is this just me?

    I used to work at Maccas and they paid by the minute too. Often Id be asked if I wanted to leave early if it was quiet, and when i declined I was never forced to clock off. However I was never asked to clock on late because "it wasnt busy enough". I did do a lot of closes with Maccas (e.g...

So I'm grouping...

    Sorta easy question regarding internal and external marks

    Im not completely sure about this, so dont quote me, but im pretty sure BOS doesnt actually look at your internal assessment marks as such They look at your rankings, and then apply some mathematics to whatever your cohort got in the externals to find your moderated assessment mark Since you got...

    A good pen to use in exams?

    Definitely Papermate Profile 1.4B, so smooth and easy to write long essays with, and is also pretty thick, which I like. It's personal opinion, some people love thick pens, some hate them, but I have this one chick at school that always takes my pens cause she likes them so much

    Back to School Shopping for HSC??

    I used spiral-bound for year 11 but i found that even after 3 terms they were very annoying to open and the bottom corner of every page was ripping when i tried to turn the pages. i think Im just going to go for stapled exercise for year 12, and contact them to ensure they last.

    Studying both MX2 and EX2

    Our maths department was pretty disappointed this year, they were going to ask who wanted to do it and select from them. Turns out only the top 3 wanted to do it, rather than 7 or 8 that they have had in previous years. Our English department was ecstatic, as 8 people nominated themselves...

    Studying both MX2 and EX2

    Yeww, I actually live on the far north coast of nsw, but i did attempt the selective schools test for fun and i was able to go to north sydney boys if i wanted to.
