    Type or Hand-write notes?

    You do the exact same Adv Eng texts as me.... And to answer your question....HAND-WRITE YOUR NOTES.....takes time and helps you remember.

    Sciences All Nyter Thread

    Also, you need to really get your head around OIL RIG to understand the difference between a Galvanic and Electrolytic cell. (If you do Shipwrecks for option...that screws you up big time..)

    Physics and Chemistry

    So these two are my last exams...and I really need to get Band 6's in these two if I am to have any shot at my ATAR aim of 92. So what tips can people give me for these two subjects?

    Scaling Question

    So I expected to get 35/70 in this. But after coming out of the exam, my friend tells me how I got Q1 wrong... So now, I expect to get 27/70. My question is: what would that scale up to?
  19. Mr Hippopotamus

    Can someone upload the paper?

    ^ This. There was nothing special about the MCQs....they were as you'd expect them. The option (relationship hardware/software) was the REAL challenge in that paper. Most (almost all) people in my class failed in Section III
