Exams. I study for them like crazy because I don't know what might be in it. (well, I technically do, but I don't know the question) As for assignments, I get them, look at the question, say, 'meh', put it away and don't take it out until 2 days before the due date. Bad, bad habit.

Isn't it easier to comprehend if you read it quietly/aloud to yourself? :confused: I find it easier to initially read the text, then have educated class discussions.

Try the State Library of NSW. You can't borrow anything, but they have a very comprehensive collection, and you can ask the librarian for help as to where to find certain books and request certain titles to be found for you within 20 minutes. Other good libraries are the City of Sydney and...

iPods are the most searched for item on eBay, so try finding an iPod wholesaler. (who would expect you to have an ABN, and will not sell you discounted iPods unless you buy several hundred units) :rolleyes: Not a good idea, IMO. Unless you have the money to invest.

Change the lyrics of your favourite song to make it related to the subject, record yourself and then play it on repeat. :) I listen to: The John Butler Trio Gin Wigmore Led Zeppelin Radiohead Guns N' Roses Velvet Revolver Bob Dylan The Beatles and more.

Precisely. I'm on the verge of getting a stroke.

*Facepalms* There should be a facepalm smiley.

Gee, that's weird. Where'd you get your statistics from?

Oh, I was not aware of that. My teachers don't seem to know about BoS though. So everything is blocked by default? Explains why you cannot access 90% the internet. :mad1:

Kid's Help Line: 1800 500 1800 http://www.kidshelp.com.au/ It's for big kids too and they'll listen to everything you say. :) To Dani0814 - If you're having trouble with school, you could talk to your year adviser, careers adviser or the school councillor. It's good you've realised that...

Re: Gap year [Rollcall] I would love to take a gap year off and go traveling the world in a beat-up, hippie caravan painted with funkadelic flowers accompanied by my friends. Unfortunately, my family would chase me down with a chainsaw even I even dared propose such outrageous an idea. And I...

Or he was just bored of studies. :rolleyes: But, I agree with your point.

My childhood crush was Cookie Monster from Sesame Street and Madeline from Madeline (Oh please, I was like 5 years old, and wanted to be her best friend). I also wanted to be friends with the cast of Arthur. My first actual celebrity crush(es) would be Hayden Panettiere and Johnny Depp, and...

Nope, just sharing the freebies. I mean, like seriously, FREE TAMPONS. Don't pretend you didn't sign up for some. ;)

Mostly agreed with. Just make sure you know your content. And play the game. ;) If you were aiming for a 99.9+ UAI, that would be a different story.

Thanks to the amazing School Student Transport Scheme, compliments of the State Government. ;)

lyounamu, how does Japanese Beginners and Society & Culture scale? PS. Where'd you get the actual data? I can't find it anywhere on the BoS, Bored Of Studies or UAC sites?

Sport is compulsory at my school for Year 11, unless you're doing an offline subject. We did that for recreational sports like Snooker and Bowling. Basically we paid $9 for the bus and entry to the venue, and then we'd spend another $10 on hot food and sweets and sit there, watching people...

Make sure you send it via Express or Registered post, in case some guy having a bad day at work gets a hold of your post.

For the SC, I studied about 2 - 3 hours on weekdays, and more on the weekends. At the moment, I try to study at least 4 hours a day, English and Mathematics usually being my top priority subjects. PS. I agree with the notion of not studying too much for the SC. However, if you are bad at a...
