    TRIALS -- Is it too late to start writing up notes?

    Cheers guys. Since I've got no hope of writing up notes for both courses within say, 10 days, I think I'll just get stuck into some past papers. :jedi:

    TRIALS -- Is it too late to start writing up notes?

    Hey there, My trials start week 4. I've got 23 days, 14 of which are school days, to study basically the ENTIRE Physics and Chem courses. (I've studied my other subjects throughout these holidays) I've struggled through both classes and can't remember too much. I scanned through some papers...

    Are we allowed to attempt a question twice? Can we give more examples than asked for?

    1) In a Math exam, are we allowed to attempt a question twice in our answer booklets? Without crossing out one. In my yearly I went back and re-did a question -- and got a different answer. I wrote this 2nd attempt a few pages back from my 1st attempt, as I didn't have any space below the...

    I'm thinking of using a related from Deviantart?

    I was thinking of using some pic on DeviantArt as a related text. It's not a professionally "published" text, but it's still a text. It has a title and a composer, and it's posted on the web, as a news journal or blog would be. Would I be allowed to use it?

    After reading the rubric and feeling angry, this is what I've come up with. "Shakespeare's Julius Caesar presents conflicting perspectives of the personality of Caesar, the event of his assassination, and the situation of political tension in Rome. These perspectives (answer question). They are...

    What specific types of questions could we be asked about Conflicting Perspectives?

    My teacher's given me a list of about 5. Each of them asks, by various wordings: "How are they conflicting perspectives created and for what purpose?" Sounds very general and vague and strange. Here's the 2009 HSC question (2009 was first year for Conflicting Perspectives): "Analyse the ways...

    Where can we find sample exemplar responses?

    Where can we find A-range responces to any of the Advanced English modules? Besides the ARC website, which only has responses to 2001/2003/2007 papers, most of which are outdated or irrelevant to my modules. Or are exemplars more a private thing that tutors and teachers usually have...

    Why do we get a really low value for Planck's constant?

    So, after measuring the voltage required to stop the photoelectron current induced by light of varying frequences, and graphing Frequency against Kinetic Energy (which is equivalent to stopping voltage), the gradient of our LOBF should equal Planck's constant of about 6.6. -- However, most of...

    Oh haha, didn't know you could do that... But that makes sense, since when I've got something multiplied by dx I integrate it, so this would be the opposite. Thanks again

    Thankyou guys for your help :shy: darkchild, I don't know how you went from the first of these red lines to the second...you seem to have derived it from 15x^2 to 30x, but I'm not sure why?

    Is this the complete description of Belonging as set by the Board?

    Hmm, that only just occured to me. :( I'll be giving my teacher a look, however he's not big on feedback -- it's usually a soft appraisal: "this is good" as opposed to: "this will get you about a B+, but this is what you need to change to land an A." Erm...is there anyone here on the forums...

    Is this the complete description of Belonging as set by the Board?

    Thanks. I just read WithoutWings' General Information + Rubric thread on Belonging, and its description of Belonging as set for 09-12 is the same. So I'm all good on that front -- now it's a matter of condensing it all into an engaging thesis. I'll report back if I can get one up.
