Except the final section on the archaeologists and new technology - that's a real bitch.

My teacher keeps telling the class to study all of the poems in the off-chance that we are tested on a specific one. Has this ever happened? Could it happen? By examining the past papers, I cannot see how it ever could, as there is only ever one question for all the texts available. If this...

That's actually really relieving. Thankyou so much.

Hey, I don't quite understand what that means. Can you explain that a bit further?

How will they divide a 2 unit subject for 1 unit? Thanks for the quick replies by the way.

My school is ranked 480. I thought that because 3 units isnt possible, it's just one 2 unit course that doesnt count. eg. If I do bad in Multi and maths, only my worst subject isnt counted since I only have 1 unit remaining, not two.

Hey do you have a link to the school rankings, then I could tell you exactly where my school is. Maths probably wont be counted for me, But I do another low scaling subject (Multimedia) so i'm a little worried. 'screwed' for me is anything that will drop my atar, I'm not trying to get Band sixes...

Hey, I've been discussing this with a friend. My report has come back and I am 10th in General maths. It's a pretty poor-ranked school, from memory I'd say 300-500, and I dont see 10 people in the class getting above 90 (Probably 1 or 2 might get 90, while most of those ranked 8 - 10 will get 75...

Re: Will Universities be discouraged to offer me a place if I have them as a low pref Thanks for that.

Re: Will Universities be discouraged to offer me a place if I have them as a low pref Wait, so if Macq sees that I have placed two of their courses as my preferred degrees they will only give me the first one?

Hey, I am currently debating on doing a generalised arts degree or a more specific B.Ancient History degree at Macq. I am about 50/50 on both, however on UAC I placed B.Ancient history as my first preference, while the B.Arts is around my 5th or 6th because the Atar is pretty low (70ish)...

Thanks that's what I thought too. Edit: Do you normally wake up this early to study? :P

Hey, I'm wondering if I should/shouldn't be overly biased in the evaluate responses (or any response that needs you to judge something). I'm talking about using highly emotive language or suggestive language to support your perspective, not bias as in a one-sided argument. eg. "The Japanese...

Yea, I was considering just reading a book on the train, except its a hassle swapping between two trains. Also, i'm concerned that I might just get sick of the travelling and slowly just stop going to lectures.

Hey, no problem! Yea, I'm really concerned that I'm not going to be able to cover all of my content, or not it a great amount of detail. I am relying on the fact that most of the content has already be learnt, and I just need to retrieve it from my memory! :P Thanks.

Thanks for that.

I'm also interested in something like this. I'd love to live on Campus. I had to travel out to Mq just a few weeks ago from South West Sydney. I spent more time on the train than I did on Campus. I'm just not sure if I could afford it.

This thread makes me feel better about myself... :)

Hey, I'm about to begin studying a bit of Hamlet, but first I thought I would collect every possible exam question that could be on it: So far I have: * General themes: Loyalty, Revenge, Honour, etc. * Characterisation:How Hamlet is more evolved / How Hamlet contrasts the others, How...

In comparison to the modern exam, ancient is so much harder...Well, to me anyway.
