Mine are pretty easy on academics (they'd be heaps cut if I failed something, but my marks are all pretty good so they're cool) but they've lately been pushing the "you fell asleep in class!! that's not funny at all, you need to pay attention to your studies and show respect to your classmates...

Physics!! I've been absolutely in love with it since yesterday, when my friend and I made this breakthrough in our (experimental) assignment, and everything just fell into place and I understood everything, and how magical physics is... that feeling is just amazing...

Do physics! Especially if your main reason for wanting biology is that it would help with medicine/pharmacy, because biol isn't just the human body, it's also plants, ecosystems, animals, all sorts of things... If you're interested in maths, then I so recommend physics (yes I am on a huge...

Yeah, that's what I do, so I get what you mean... I do it because I'm lazy: understand everything in school, so don't need to study after school; teachers don't mark/check homework, so don't need to do homework after school = splawesomeness for me, because I have heaps of free time :D I have...

Re: Folders or Books? Depends on the subject for me, maths I have very tidy exercise books, English has no notes, just random scribblings and doodles on bits of paper... But I'm trialling folders and loose-leaf for my science subjects this semester. I did it a bit last year but wasn't very...

Yeah, I can't really concentrate with music on. So if I'm really buckling down or if I want to do something in a hurry, then I don't listen to music, but if I'm just mindlessly doing homework and already have other distractions then I do, just easy listening 60s and 70s stuff and random 80s pop...

Going into next term, I think the most interesting subject is going to be biology, because we're doing a topic on ecological systems, then leading into evolution and that sort of thing, which I find really fascinating. Also, we get to go on camp :D

Don't know about chem, but for bio we've done quite a few speeches and presentations, just in-class ones though.

What are your actual marks in maths? If they're alright, then I would say stick to normal maths, because moving to an easier subject to get easy rankings is kind of cheating yourself unless you're doing it because you genuinely can't pass maths well (based on your other marks, you seem like a...

Haha. Thanks. In other news: I like your sig :D

Mmm, but the OP says he is trying his hardest and still more or less failing. How hard are you failing? If it is that bad that you are seriously considering pathways (ie you're not just doing it because you want to have an easy couple of years) then you do have good reason. And you...

Haha, me too! Especially if they just removed every bit of concepts and applications and just made you do the maths bit of it. Then I'd ace physics. Unfortunately it isn't. Stupid people who designed physics syllabus. Grr. Let's start a campaign, DJ :D

I had a competition with my sister and friends about who could be the most organised in terms of school notes and stuff. I won in the colour-coding section (although the writing notes section I quite dismally failed :D). My subjects have all the same: exercise book covers; ink I write with...

Haha. I can't do that. I'm so paranoid that someone will see me putting heaps of effort into an assignment or something, and then they'll think it's stupid, so I just mess around and have to keep hiding my work and scrolling away from my writing and wasting time fixing up the fonts and...

I'm short-sighted :D (like practically everyone else on this thread...) I don't know how strong they are, but I've been told that they are pretty bad (even my other short-sighted friends wince when wearing them :) ). As for my studying, well, it's sporadic...I pretty much do only what I have to...

I got my report back today :D Travelling, but papa called me for it! And they were all right... English A+; Maths B A; Maths C A+; Biology A-; Chem A; Physics B+ I'm happy...but since internet is getting cut off because campsites are so expensive, I just want to say... QLD for State of Origin!

haha, thanks anyway :D

Re: Prelim Subjects '08 New people these days get so much welcoming, can I pretend to be new so I can get people being all friendly? :D Hi, I'm selablad, I'm from Queensland and I do straight maths and science... *hopes for chorus of welcomes*

I thought that was a book...I didn't know there was a poem...
