    Yep, we get Independent as well. For the option topic, we're doing the Evolution of Programming Languages, which is apparently easier. Last year's cohort at our school did the Hardware and Software one though, and it like binary and all that lol. As for resources, all I have is that zip file I...

    Haha it's going quite well actaully, coming 1st at my school, but it's a small cohort. How have you been doing? It appears you've dropped IPT, wise choice if you did :P. By the way, do you guys set your own trials or is it done by Independent or something?

    Is it possible to be among the best without coaching?

    Everything seems to have been mostly said already. Any student can do well in the HSC if they're motivated enough, but it can't come from sending them to x y z tutoring, they should be motivated themselves. And I never went to tutoring in Yr11-12, and I'm doing quite well I think. I've...

    Free 4 Unit maths papers

    Though James Ruse is one of the best schools at maths, their papers aren't nearly as difficult as they should be, for some reason. If you want to do trial papers where you'll actually learn a lot, you probably should look elsewhere. A friend I had theorised that if the exams were too hard the JR...

    A Comprehensive list of Source Code Websites and Programming Sites

    codeacademy.com apparently a new interactive website, structured a little like Khan Academy. Have not used, but looks good for basics.

    WARNING to all students look for tutors. Most are greeedy, too expensive.

    How the hell can someone make $1500 from tutoring on a weekend, let alone in a week...Even if you charged $50/hr, that's 30 hour's lol. I guess it's all been said but I don't get why people care so much. If people want to be stupid and won't listen, you let them. Anyway I think almost all...

    why do so many people hate hsc english?

    Critical thinking and analysing skills may be important, but why are we forced to do it on some texts we hate or don't care about? There has to be a better way of doing it

    permutations

    Problem is the two boys aren't necessarily sitting together in the group. They could be on opposite ends of the front row, so that's why the 2! x 3! isn't correct for the front row, I believe. The problem with 4! is that means your organising 4 people in 4 different spots. But you're not...

    permutations

    I got 5760 and thought I was wrong til I realised that was the answer you meant. I just thought of it like this. Let's deal with the conditions first. We have one girl who has 4 possible seats she can sit in, in the back row 4... Then we have the boys. The first boy can sit into another 4...

    Do state rankers usually get tutoring?

    People only go to tutoring because they see everyone else going to tutoring and think it's the way to do well, and the cycle continues. Nowadays with the Internet there's way better teaching resources, even for the BOS syllabus, than any tutor can give you. The only other thing could be...

    Worst scaling? Or close to?

    SD scaling is pro if you get over 90. Deadset.

    What happens if you don't get a ATAR that can get you into any UNI?

    Epic Fail. It's a shame students are indoctrinated to think they need to get a good ATAR, or need a uni degree, to go far in life, otherwise you're some garbage collector. Are you serious? some sort of steroetypical epic fail thinking. these are the same people who think doctors and lawyers...

    How do I get better at English?

    This. Except you won't catch them, you'll beat them. As long as you're studying smart, you'll eventually be beating most of the people at your school, especially in selective.

    Does anyone learn anything in class?

    Guessing teacher is Dolan? man i never learn anything from teacher's here, tbh. Occasionally something in English. Yeah no most people at our school would rather we didn't have to go to school so we could just study at home.
