Wow what a freak, :) congrats to her.

I don't see how that proves/clears your point.

idk. To me, you just seemed to contradict yourself, and thus I forgot what we were arguing over. o_O
Well, nvm...

edit:

Yes, but don't you see, that contradicts what you said before?
I said james ruse is not neccesarily the best school but they have lots of top students. How is that contradicting myself. I didnt say they had crap teachers. If my post earlier was the problem then I apologise.

Ok, so this is what I thought you meant:
  • Ruse is not necessarily the best school. But they are leading because they get the top students.
Hence, if we remove the students and examine the school/teachers, we can find the best school.

But then you said:
  • Students and teachers are equally important in what makes a good school.
Contradiction?
  • The best teacher will only improve the worst students' marks, and the worst teacher will most likely result in a decrease of the top students' marks.
How does that support what you said before.

No need to apologise. :) Arguing is fun, if you don't get worked up. Which I'm not. So it's all good.
haha arguing can be fun but can be so painful if you are doing it orally. Currently I have a sore throat not from arguing though but from being sick.

getting back to topic, if you have an early day at your school, go straight to the school you are applying for that way you can make it hopefully in time well before the school closes.

same. But you didn't answer my question!
Which question? Well I am contradicting myself in the way my post is viewed.

I don't think turning up and handing your application in person would give you any brownie points.
Yeap! Also you rather hand it in early than like the last day or get it in late on the last day as things could go wrong on the last day...

so angry at my deputy for not forwarding my acceleration application form for me. Got the marks for Chemistry but didnt get in as too late. Well the principal knew about it in like week 7 of term 1 when i applied in like week 2. She think its not good for me as I wont be able to catch up

Don't you have to do the SC for science in year 9 if you want to do accelerated Chemistry?
