Re: Did you choose the High School you now attend or did your Parents force it on you Well my school is both primary and secondary. My sisters went through the school (graudated in 2005 and 2007), and my dad thought that my school was the best choice even though it's the only private school in...

Probably I will get expected like a Band 4. But I'll try and get a band 5.

Would be doing it if there was a Begginers course & offered at either OHS or my school. Since I would like to learn it and to talk to my Grandmother (she is from Russia).

Yeah, I been studying Japanese since year 7 (we had to do one semester of French, the other Japanese and for year 8 we choose either one of them), and I love doing it. I emailed my OHS teacher about if it's worth doing Extension if my score is 60-70%. I remember her saying that you have to get...

I'm doing Japanese Cont. through Open High School. Unless if your motivated, don't do any language/course through correspondence. Also if your doing extremely well in Year 10 maths, then do 2U Mathematics (not General). But I can't tell from experience because I dropped maths all together.

I knew one of the International students was doing 16 units at one point (Standard English, Maths, Maths E1, D&T, Physics, Legal, Chemesty, Chinese Background Speakers, and something else) but now has dropped Physics because she found the workload too hard.

So the remaining 8 units that count, if you do one Ext. subject it splits in half with a 2U subject?

Religion, Art, Drama. I have periods where I like and hate Japanese.

I am a little bit confuzzled with the HSC in general when it comes to ATAR scoring and jazz. I heard a rumor about that you can get extra points for your ATAR (like extra ATAR points for remote students) if you are a House/School Captain, is this true? Since the best 10 Units count for your...

I did that too with English. I finished a practice essay that we were doing in class and slept for like 2-3 mins and my teacher knocked on my desk and asked, "Are you awake yet?" I can't help it if I finished.

I know my Japanese teacher at OHS, they said that if you achieve 85% or higher then you can do Extension. I'm achieving about 60-70% and I want to do Extension. xD

I kind of laughed too. When I go to Open High (Japanese Continuers) or National Art School (Art Extension), people who live around the city seemed to be surprised when I tell them that I live in the BM (I presummed it's like a 2hr 30min train trip from where I live in the BM to Central) . But...

My course is 76-78 depending on which uniersity I go to. Since the "Blue Mountains" is considered as "rural" (a person who was telling info about Macquarrie was saying I can get extra points for that), I am aming for a 80+.

I want to study in Japan but when I checked out Tokyo University & Tsukuba University both have to sit an exam for Japanese proficincy. a) When and how do you take a JP test? b) What is the cheapest but a good Uniersity in Japan? c) Does the Universities offer boarding for International studies?

My class couldn't do any topics that were going to be done in the remaineder of the Prelim. course or the HSC. I did the Meiji Restoration.

I'm doing Continuers (but sadly through OHS), if I had a class, my textbook would of been Mirai. When I did elective Japanese, I used the Hai! series and it was really good.

Ahaha, is it demanding (from ehat you heard) so much that it isn't exactly wise to do it with two BoW subjects (Drama & Art)? Is anyone doing Japanese Ext. through Open High or already experienced it? If so, is it true that you have to hand in work every Friday?

Weekdays Get up at 6:30am Go to bed 8:30pm - 9:30pm (sometimes at 10pm) Weekends Get up: 7am (depending if I have sport on a Saturday) Bed: 8:30 - 10:30pm.

I got the interview stage for the 2011 JENESYS program. I still haven't got the time/date and where my interview is. Any advice for those who are going to have an interview? What do you exactly do on the program? xD

As my Religion teacher (or one of my teachers always said), Year 11 is the year where you can stuff up big time and learn from your mistakes. As a year 11 myself, I just do past papers or practice essay questions (I do Standard, Art, Drama, Japanese Continuers, Modern, SORII).
