    Europe, April '07

    I went to France and Italy in April/May last year and it was considerably colder in France than it was in Italy...we were wearing jackets and scarves in Paris and slowly took our layers off as we headed down Italy towards Rome and Naples, but were still wearing jeans by the end of the trip. It...

    Why do you study a foreign language?

    Why do you study a foreign language? What motivated you to do it? I first did Italian in year 8 and found it interesting and quite easy to pick up on, and because of this was good at it. I decided to continue with it in year 11+12 since I wasn't given the opportunity to in years 9+10, and...

    Guidance needed regards to stuffing up internal assessments

    i dont know what you mean by stuffed up, but if you got say...60%, then 60% of 15% is 9%. then you have the 9, because half your hsc mark is your assessment mark, and youve only lost 4.5 marks off a perfect hsc. and if your uai is ROUGHLY an average of your hsc marks, allowing for you to have...

    How many units for hsc is too much?

    it definitely depends on the person...even though only 10 count to your uai, some people like to have more on their hsc and if you were capable and wanted that, why wouldnt you? theres a girl in my year doing 16, but she finished 2 last year, and then there are people (like me!) only doing the...

    songlyrics for change texts..

    i wouldnt say its frowned upon by all english teachers in general, but a lot of them would probly see that you could choose a more challenging text to analyse than song lyrics. generally, song lyrics are just rhyme, rhythm, similes and metaphors, but so are a lot of childrens texts and poems. it...

    Does the Bachelor of Arts/ Bachelor of Science degree still exist?

    Bachelor of arts/sciences according to 2006 (not 2007) uac guide...they do languages but theyre more language and cultural studies combined i think, and if you major in a language you can also major in government and international relations. As for science, you can also do both psychology and...
