    Why is Law so popular?

    Good money making opportunity for humanity inclined persons. But I'd say the biggest factor is status and image. Dropping that your a lawyer in conversation= wet panties.

    HSC Falling Apart - Parents Divorce - Serious Discussion Pls

    I really feel for you. My parents are also going through something similar, but not to that extent. They're talking about 'separating' as of now, not yet divorcing. It's tough, but we'll all get through it. This is gonna be a bit direct, but this is my advice: just get into uni. You seem like...

    2014 Internal Ranks Thread

    Re: Official 2014 Internal Ranks Thread To my knowledge isn't this how it works: rank 1 gets the highest external mark as his internal (he's probs gonna get highest external anyway) rank 2 (me) gets the 2nd highest external mark as internal. ... and everyone keeps their external marks

    Re: Official 2014 Internal Ranks Thread Will the 1% difference between us matter that much?

    Subjects actually helping in real life

    True but what's the alternative? Make maths compulsory? I'm a maths person and there's no way I'd agree with that. Not a fan of forcing people to do anything tbh.

    Subjects actually helping in real life

    Doing MX1 and MX2 has greatly improved my problem solving ability, but I'm not quite sure it's seeped into my 'everyday life'. Content wise, economics is by far the most useful. Lots of the stuff you learn happens in real life around you all the time. Economics is one of the fundamental...

    cos sin question

    You kind of just have to know that cos(90-theta)=sin(theta) and vice versa, BUT there is intuition behind this. Draw up any right angled triangle and label one of the angles as theta. Since all the angles of a triangle add up to 180, the remaining angle must be 90-theta. Now take notice that if...

    Thoughts on Independent 2014 MX2 Trials?

    Re: thoughts on independent 4u 2014? Wonderfully articulated. It was a little frustrating to constantly hear "don't worry, trials are harder than hsc!" all the time. Like, have they seen Q8 from the 01,02 and 03 papers or even from the 80s? My trials did more harm for me than good. Getting...

    Common question buuuut

    My point is that I'm still limited by my cohort aren't I? Far out, I don't want anyone else's mark I want my own.

    Common question buuuut

    That's exactly what I meant though... rank 2 gets 2nd highest HSC mark correct? So if i beat him in the HSC, I get his cruddy mark as my internal?

    Common question buuuut

    I just got beaten in the English Adv course by half a percent. The problem is that 70% of our course mark came from assignments and only 30% from actual exams (10% hy and 20% trial, how retarded is that?). I beat the guy that came first by the order of like 10-15% in both the hy and trial, but...

    Anyone getting gifts for their teachers lol?

    Spoilers: Even if you get those marks, nobody will care except you.

    Anyone getting gifts for their teachers lol?

    I actually like all my teachers so I just thought getting them a present as a class after graduation would be a nice gesture. Don't know what to get though lol, flowers are a bit overdone. Anyone else doing the same?

    Post-Trials Atar Estimate

    Lol skies the limit mate. It's all about how you go in externals now. Dont stuff up (i.e. achieve B6 in all subs) and the bare minimum will be high 98s but most likely 99+
