You do 9 periods of 80 mins every 2 weeks? So what? I do 9 Periods of 40 mins per week. I have Maths everyday, you don't. SO who cares?

The only reason Ruse does well in the HSC collectively is because you steal 30 of the top students from other Schools to come into yours. Not to mention the amount of work you do. I know several people at Ruse and they all tell me all the do is study.

So even after all that if you didn't do well in the HSC then that would be pretty pathetic.

Build a bridge and get over it.
lol dnt tell me 2 tone down

and yes, u MAY point out that ruse is 5th in demand... who the hell gives a shit?? where does UR school lie? 150th in demand?
"I do 9 Periods of 40 mins per week. I have Maths everyday, you don't. SO who cares?" obviously no1 cares...

bottom line: GET A LIFE
No 'Queenie' my School is 1st in demand. I go to Baulkham Hills High School.

Thats not the issue. Anyone can do well at any school as long as they put their mind to it, so don't think you are better then anyone else.

Fuck this is dumb. I could have gone to a selective school but chose not to. Why? The quality of teaching is not any better, they do well because they choose their students. Or maybe so I could come on here and say I go to Ruse, I'm so much smarter than you are. I would prefer to be recognised for my own acheivements rather than those of the people who surround me. Seriously people grow up.

LOL....

I'm regretting making this post now :) - what with all this bitching and cock-fighting.

But anyway......just to clear things up. People who go to a selective school aren't stuck-up or arrogant. People who go to private schools aren't stuck-up or arrogant. And it doesn't matter which school is in demand! They're all the same! (except a few that really are crap). Whether you go to Ruse, NSBHS or an unknown country school, you can get 100%, a UAI of 100, or come 1st in the state!

Back to accelerated maths:
I accelerate 2U and 3U maths (we finished Prelim. in Year 10, and now we're doing Year 12 - I'm in Yr11).
Do any school accelerate 4U, coz that really is psycho if they do. :)

yeah my school does, but that's only one or two really crazy students every few years or so - which is quite rare - as you can imagine

You guys are right. Sorry mate.

It's a pointless debate. Now I got a question - I know Queenie has done [presumably :)] her half-yearlies - Did you have Double Angle Formulae in your half-yearlies?

at my school, if you do accel., you have to do 3U - there's no accelerant 2U :)

there are 9 people in my class (including me).

in 2U, we have trig. graphing/differentiation etc and physical apps to do.
in 3U, we have further work on the ones above + binomial th. + inverse functions.
we've already done 3U probability (except for binomial probability)

btw. how do u do past papers when u haven't finished everything? or did u do 15 of them over the last few weeks of the term (and where did u find 3 hours to do them in class?)

oh yea......what did u guys get for prelim. 2U and 3U last year - i.e. overall assessment report mark?
