With show questions, it doesn't matter which side you start with. If you can get to the line LHS=RHS, either from starting from the LHS or the RHS, then it has been done

I think your problem is that you are just integrating between pi and 3pi/2. You have failed to realise that the two graphs intersect at 5pi/4. Once the graphs intersect, then their position changes. That is. Between pi and 5pi/4, y= 2sinx is above y=2cosx, but between 5pi/4 and 3pi/2, y=2cosx is...

Ditch conics, it doesn't come up anywhere in the first year. Volumes of revolution come up, so don't discount teaching it. You may also want to suggest to your friend to start looking at matrices. It is quite a large part of 1st year maths. Also, people who don't do 4U maths can be...

If you get offered a scholarship, it means that you will get money if you take up an offer at the university. You can choose another university, but you won't get the scholarship. Also, the offer and the scholarship are separate.

Also, they generally cover extra questions in the tutorials. For example, you will most likely get access to the tutorial sheet to do at home. The tutor will spend time with solutions, and then they may post up extra questions for you to work through that they do not put online. Also, if you...

If your passionate about it, then you should be able to teach urself the course. I know people who have basically taught themselves the 4unit course and achieved that Band E4

If you are doing History Extension because you think it scales well, it is probably not a wise choice for it. Do it only if you are really passionate about History Having Extension English and Maths and doing well in them should be sufficient enough for you to get an ATAR of 98.5. If you enjoy...

Haha, we don't have these weird introductions in science tutorials! We just get straight into the worksheets. Couldn't imagine having 2 keep going through it though...

Not really, because there are different levels of language teaching. There is one stream for those who have no background, one stream for those who completed beginners, one stream for those who did continuers and one for those who did extension/background. Some knowledge of the language...

For beginners, expect to be covering an entire chapter of a language book in about a week. The contact hours are generally 4 hours in the 1st year, but that decreases. You are also expected to spend this much time on the language away from uni. You will also find that the lecturer/tutor will...

I believe the answer is wrong. I used both the ratio of general terms method and actually expanding the terms out, and I also got 1792

Re: Is it good to use foreign language terms in essays/speeches etc if they're releva I thought this section meant writing the WHOLE essay in another language, not quoting. If it is relevant then use it. In regards to Modern History, we were always told to learn the french/german terms for...

I would not recommend doing both 3U history and 4U english because both require a major work to be submitted. U will find that of the people who do both 3U history and 4U english, most will drop one because they haven't got enough time to dedicate to two works. History extension is good if u...

Law requires a lot of reading, so the time at uni u have is generally 3-4 days a week (i.e. 12 hours). In terms of workloads, science and engineering degrees are the degrees that have the most contact hours.

Yeah, if ur doing engineering, they generally expect u 2 pick up maths anyway. Much of the MX2 course (ex conics) is taught in the first year @ uni in either maths or physics. Also, it is possible to take elective subjects in first year. Check the specifications of the exact degree u want 2 do

U'll b fine tutoring 2U maths (or general?) If ur really worried, get practice with the university tutoring programs. From personal experience, it is not about whether u have the marks. U just need 2 make sure that u can convey the knowledge well enough for ur student 2 understand. If u enjoyed...

Re: depression caused by failing everything +1. u can still dramatically improve ur mark in six months. As long as u begin a steady workload. It doesn't need to be too much, maybe just 1-2 hours, revising what u've done, and typing notes. Besides, it's holidays, so what u should b doing is...

HECS census passed, so yeah, u'll get a fail if u withdraw

Yep. However, u should really b aiming for high Band 4/low band 5 in English and gud marks in ur other subjects...

Just get married next year. It'd b so much easier on u. Anyway, compared 2 a lifetime of marriage, then the 6-7 months before the HSC is a very short time. Congrats :D
