Re: Who else is aiming high for next year? I guess I will, but I just don't have the same motivation to succeed that I used to in earlier years. My dad has just realised that and is now doing everything he can to find out how to keep me motivated and all. He's even meeting with the careers...

What's the subject? Is it a school-wide rule that you can't drop it, or are they only applying it to him?

Revised (again) assessment: Best: chemistry (biology creeping up there though, evolution is awesome) Worst: still English...hand in one assignment, get another :mad:

Good luck with that :D You seem like a very qualified fellow... *assessment mainly based on that quote in your sig :)

We had ours last year. It was pretty much just like a normal school disco, except in nicer clothes. Actually speaking of clothes, so many people ended up wearing the same dress as another. It was funny watching all the girls ignoring each other because of it :D

It depends on the topic, and if you have different things to show...

Re: Maths Competition I was breezing through till about question 10. Then it just all fell apart. I made educated guesses for the next ten or so, and just put in random numbers for the rest. I did the one about 'cool' numbers though. Just because it had cool in it. I was one of the few...

If anything I plan on taking up a lot more stuff. That's because I do pretty much nothing at the moment and having too much free time means my organisation skills are pretty...bad. So I'll be sacrificing my free time :)

If you're only going to get 70+ in Senior science, why do you want to change? Most people only drop to a "lower" subject if they are confident that they can get nearly full marks... Although I would consider the effort you're putting in. If you think you can do better, keep Chemistry, but if...

Ooh, yes. Number 2 is what I need to do. I'm making it official now by posting it in this thread :D

Thanks a lot guys. We did think that the beaker glass would affect the results, but we had absolutely no idea how else to measure it. I'm not sure where else we could put the beaker though? Unless we just got rid of the beaker completely... Anyway, I spoke to my teacher today and she said...

My friend is 28/07/92! So many birthdays. Happy birthday to everyone. Just to keep it mathematically related: logs are boring, differentiation is alright but integration is super awesome. Maybe because I just started learning it so the novelty hasn't worn off :D

Re: Folders or Books? I have an everything book too, except I actually do work in it :D Basically it is one of those ones that you rip pages off, with the glue stuff on the top, and I write down whatever I need to, but I'm more of a listening-learner so I don't take many notes. I do...

Could anyone help me with my Physics investigation? My friend and I have been working at this since Friday and haven't been able to figure it out. We've had so many problems with this experiment that I think we've just gone brain-dead or something :vcross: Anyway, this is the experiment, to...

Our school has that rule, you are allowed to have your own teacher read through a draft and make suggestions (but not give you a rough mark) but not any other teacher. I gathered from somewhere that it was something to do with reducing the teachers' workloads (having to read through students'...

I hope you have a flair for drama, because with the right touch, that speech could be awesome. Although if he is drunk, then maybe sophisticated words would be a bit much? Unless he stumbled over them or something. I agree with the shifty/detached/human thought thing (bored of sc). But it...

There is your problem right there. The obvious solution, therefore, is to stop doing so much homework. Now, this might be a problem if your teachers are very strict about marking it, but as a general rule they aren't. This is like in Sims, where you spend countless hours and days just...

I have a chem quiz tomorrow too!

I think that giant equation-looking thing in your sig is intimidating people. Or maybe that's just me :) That seems really good, though. A couple of punctuation things, pretty minor and probably don't even matter since it's a monologue. Um...social-able? (haven't read the book so don't...

The beginning paragraph is very awkward, I thought. Probably because my English teacher gave us a huge angry lecture about show-don't-tell today, so that's why I'm thinking about it :D But yeah, the first paragraph is pretty much telling the listener exactly how Holden thought of him, and what...
