Had mine this morning. The topics were complex numbers, conics, graphs and hard 3U. 2 hrs. Didn't get the exam finished and feel that I majorly screwed a graphs question when it wasn't 2 difficult (Sketch x^0.5 + y^0.5 = a^0.5 and determine where the tangent at P(x1, y1) crosses the X-Axis...

Our half yearly was really good. It was about Historical truth and the 'battle' between traditional Historians and Postmodernists. Our source was some Newspaper article written by Christine Keenan.

He was a bit 2 descriptive describing the sex in Dirt Music... But if u go beyond that, his texts aren't 2 bad...

Happy 2 hav helped u!:cool:

I'll give you some possible points to compare/contrast, but am not 100% sure if they will work, because I haven't studied the text Father and Son/Feliks Skrzynecki "I am old, but I am happy"/ "happy as I have never been" "How can I explain, when I do, he turns away again"/"like a dumb...

diprotic acids are weaker than monoprotic acids because of the steps they take to completely ionise. Similarly, triprotic acids (H3PO4) are weaker still.

Hav u thought of what degree u want 2 do. I'd speak with ur careers advisor and ask him about uni courses. But 2 b honest with u, I wouldn't worry until Year 10 shapes up a bit more 4u. Y10 is one of the best years of High School. Try not 2 worry about the HSC yet! What subjects do u want 2...

Believe it or not, this is not a new idea! Every few years some person brings it up, saying it is better, but it gets 4gotten after a while. I remember it being mentioned in the news back in Y8 or 9

I think preparation will b the hardest part 2! Ther are so many sources 2 use. Our half-yearly is in exactly the same format as urs. We were going 2 hav an appeasement question, but since the teacher went away, we don't!!!

Am quite surprised 2 see that lots of ppl r doing JFK and Elizabeth! Although, they r interesting! We're doing appeasement as our case study. For my MW, I'm doing Nixon and Watergate. Some really fascinating info out there, especially with media hype! U guys hav had some gr8 ideas 4 topics...

Actually, from what I hear, conics is coming out of the HSC course around 2010-11... They're replacing it with statistics because only a few subjects @ uni actually hav nything 2 do with conics... Pity that change wasn't this year!!! PS: Am loving graphs because it is really easy!!! And...

Mine start 2moro!!! Hav an exam every day this week and all my extensions the first three days of next week!! nervous...

I can never seem to come up with the answers to the last conics questions when I practise past HSC papers. The ones in Q3-4 r generally not hard, but yeah, the ones in Q7-8 r a bitch!!!! Anyone who wants 2 feel better about conics, try the 2006 MX2 paper, the conics questions r really...

Not crazy yet... Although, by the end of the year, perhaps!!! I'm sure the half-yearlies will be painful. Still, Y12 is one of the best years because its ur last school year... Thats gotta count 4 something...

From the preliminary course, Strong Metal+ Water creates a Metal Hydroxide plus Hydrogen gas...

1) Convert the complex number into mod-arg form. (Draw a right angled triangle on an Argand diagram. Get the modulus using Pythagoras and the Argument using Trigonometry. It is a lot easier 2 do if u've got a diagram) Then use DeMoivre's theorem... and simplify 2)Always have the answer in...

Just don't see the big deal in the whole issue. If the people at James Ruse are working hard, let them. I also thought that stuff covered in Year 11 and 12 was touched on in earlier years by most schools anyway. We learned Polynomials and circles in Year 10, and they're on the Extension Maths...

Didn't think Lear and Bladerunner was 2 bad... Loved BNW and Frontline though. Would definitely read and watch again! Am I the only person who thinks "The Shipping News" is boring?

Year 7 History was quite odd actually. Our history teacher was was wearing this Shirt with a White Tiger on it. One of my class mates asked her if he could pat her white tiger... One of the oddest comments that was ever made in any of my classes to date. Year 8 History. One of my friends asked...

Try this: To what extent have Japanese views of kamikaze bombings from WW2 changed over time? Or, you could change the "To what extent" to "How and why". This will give you a better opportunity to look at the context of the Japanese.
