    if I may interlude with my complete lack of experience on this topic but one of my Ancient teachers (Ms Terry) is a HSC judge for Ancient History. they were trying to decide upon a state ranking for a student in that year this was last year they brought the nominated entries before a...

    State Ranking

    zomg! ours does the whole long gay speeches and talking in a convoulted manner too!! I knew those boxes that appeared on the last day of Year 11 were supplies from 'back home' - and that WAS her spacecraft cunningly disgused in the staff carpark. heck. glad I got out while I still could!

    State Ranking

    What's wrong with this new Ruse principal? Not as strict or something? It is hard to see how one principal could affect the entire school cohort. I'm sure there's been a succession of Ruse principals before and have not altered the marks much. I know our new principal (Gosford High) in 2007...

    When are notifications sent for Showcase nominees?

    its leaked from all of our ears in between chilling with friends and not having to do work i really need to get back into novel-reading P.S I have no hope of Showcase. I think I actually managed to spell 'appropriate' wrong on one of my webpages. my friend pointed it out (actually, it...

    Maquarie Merit Scholarships

    OK, let me explain this in a lengthy sort of fashion despite the sentiment from other people, where it is believed it is possible for myself to acheive a University Admissions Index of greater than or equal to 98.5; I do not share the same belief wholeheartedly. Oh sorry - that's badly...

    Maquarie Merit Scholarships

    Just wondering about this program; has anyone else gotten the scholarship before? Didn't work as hard as I should have due to varying reasons, and despite people saying "Nowai you are 98+ material" I don't believe its possible for me to get 98+ really. So... the question is, does Maquarie...

    B:IT App's

    Aw that's a shame ^^ Did you try out for the Maq "Merit" scheme? So there were 40 people who applied in Round 1, and 30 who applied in Round 2? Tried out in Round 1, apparently I'm still eligible but not definately in. .. I heard there were more sponsors than ever this year I could...

    Formals (yr12); Semi-Formals (yr11); Socials (yr10)

    yeah, sucks ay. makes me wonder how people once moved down here. there must have been more open in terms of work 10 years ago then there is now. its a good place to return to, once you're done with Sydney. Apparently its the place to raise a family more than anything else. I'll always...

    Formals (yr12); Semi-Formals (yr11); Socials (yr10)

    I wouldn't know, I didn't actually go to the Formal. :P Yeah, I am a Central Coast kid. It's so good!! on an unrelated note, there's a Problem: We all have to leave after we're 18 because there's just no culture or work here.

    Anyone else put on a few kgs 'because' of the HSC?

    i never stopped during the trials - exercising, but I never really studied. In the HSC I stopped and it felt really bad. I'm only just getting back into it now. It's hard to get back into. yay for 2.5 hours of bikeriding today!! absolutely insane!

    Formals (yr12); Semi-Formals (yr11); Socials (yr10)

    answer me this, is it a 'date' if I asked someone to the formal about 3 days before, but they already had booked a limo with friends and we had our tables sorted months ago and was too late to change. sooooo she said we'd hang out for 'date' photos. Not really a date is it? When I asked I...

    should i do software design??

    Sure its heaps fun. But you can do that at home. The actual SDD course is the only computing HSC course that does not teach the use of a programming language. Developing a software package was OK but it didnt help during the exam nor were we taught coding - you can still get full marks for a...

    Which faculty had the "best" Teachers?

    Gosford High School I was joking though. Usually in Ancient History at our school, out of about 40 kids, about 15 get Band 6s, and the rest get band 5s - most of those are 88s and 89s. (According to our ancient teacher). Last year we got 2 Band 4s unfortunately. This year however...

    Lee waited for the phone to ring..

    no... you end up going to Newcastle with the same qualifications. There's a difference. Besides, somehow I don't think getting less than 90 lands you in the narrow category we call 'Same qualifiications'... if you don't get in in the first place, I mean. That, my friend - is a solid...

    its times like this I realise why us selective kids shine so brightly out from the rest of the state.

    Which faculty had the "best" Teachers?

    HSIE. Ohh I could tell you about the crazy antics of the HSIE staff. I had a sort of war thing going on since Year 8 -- where I started doing well at history; had the same history teacher for Year 8, 9 and 11 and 12, if I got 19/20 it was disappointing lol and I got class groans. lol In...

    should i do software design??

    Software's very impractical. 70% of theory? Try... 90%. Some of it is stuff you'd never use, never consider, unless you were going into business - and even then sometimes you're like htf is this relevant? We got lucky; we got a good teacher, but even so - I think if I would have known my...

    Q6 is King's Court, Heinermann Defintion:

    your post contradicts itself. Where were the principles of equity FIRST developed? I don't need to say any more.
