    does ANYBODY enjoy their text for english?

    One of the points on the BOS HSC Marking Centre Notes on EE2 is that too many people opt for "postmodernism" and think that by structuring work in such a way (btw, I wasn't saying that Elliot was being an arse by doing that, I was referring to others who try to produce po-mo work) as "cut up...

    Geometrical Examples of Mathematical Induction

    Hey guys, I was wondering if I should be bothered to learn this. My teacher said that in the whole twenty-five years of experience, she has NEVER EVER SEEN a question in ANY exam including HSC, and that it's only taught because technically it MAY be examined as it's in the syllabus. So I...

    What are my chances?

    Pardon my ignorance, but what does "bonded" mean (in this context of course)?

    does ANYBODY enjoy their text for english?

    To be honest, of all Elliot's poetry I've read, the only one that stands out is "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" ("Prufrock" hereafter). I have studied his poems in depth, and I can honestly say that this was the only one that stood out, simply because I thought he expressed his thoughts so...

    UNSW or USYD for Medicine?

    *Squeals* Awesome. Does that mean I could choose English and then two minor subjects, Kfunk? Philosophy sounds interesting, and yes USYD does require those high marks to get into med at the end of your first course. Which puts me off somewhat...

    UNSW or USYD for Medicine?

    In light of what everyone has said about my fierce interest in the Arts, I think that medicine will have to take precedence. I don't like the idea of doing graduate medicine because having geared up towards a medical degree all my life, there won't be anything much better than starting it next...

    UNSW or USYD for Medicine?

    Yeah, I suppose it is a little more than just a "side" interest, and I haven't really considered graduate medicine before. But I will definitely look into that now. And that's one of the drawbacks of UNSW combined arts/medicine - the fact that it seems as if I won't be able to fully immerse...

    UNSW or USYD for Medicine?

    Thank you guys for your input. I have to clarify something: Med is the only thing for me, and when I saw that you could do both arts and med at both UNSW and USYD, I literally jumped. I was so happy, because I have looked long and hard, and I know that medicine is really the only thing I wish...

    UNSW or USYD for Medicine?

    I want to pursue an arts degree because I love the humanities, and I would like to learn history or English (or both). Also, for scholarly purposes (I want to be a fiction writer), as EE1/EE2 I love to death. Thank you, point dexter. But then, I'm just asking which I should put first on my UAC.

    UNSW or USYD for Medicine?

    Okay guys, I have been thinking long and clear about this. :\ I want to study arts/medicine but I don't know which uni I would put up in first place on my UAC application forms. I know some people will be on here and say that it is much too early to think about UAC, and your concern is welcome...

    does ANYBODY enjoy their text for english?

    For Advanced, I love all my texts (Skrzynecki, Clueless, Emma, Antony and Cleopatra) except Wild Swans. But that might change. And I love all my extension texts: The Castle, Seamus Heaney, Shipping News. Heaney is my FAVOURITE poet of all time. Sigh, before I go on and wax lyrical, I'll stop...

    Study buddies!

    If anybody wants help with modern history, I am glad to help. I'm quite decent at it; 96/100 for prelims. My topics were: The Holocaust, Meiji Japan, Stalin and Causes of WW1. I've got some detailed notes on all these topics, probably amounting to 60 pages or so. So yes... (free btw). If you...

    Re: Anyone want to form a study group? Wow, this thread rocks. Too bad our posts are going to be deleted soon. My endorphins are russsshing! EDIT: My brother does law too. Actually, no, he's finished law, just this year, and might be getting a university medal also. This is what he said...

    actus reus

    Re: Anyone want to form a study group? actus reus Latin for a "guilty act." The actus reus is the act which, in combination with a certain mental state, such as intent or recklessness, constitutes a crime. For example, the crime of theft requires physically taking something (the actus reus)...
