    Should English Be Compulsary Poll

    THANKYOU!!! I agree completely. The whole matter is black and white for me. One can present a good argument for every subject about how beneficial it is in life or whatever. But at the level of year 12, we should be able to make our own decisions as to what subjects we want to do and choose them...

    Does anyone get tutoring for French (or other languages)?

    Nah, that's ok. I wasn't looking for a tutor or anything. I was just curious as to whether many people did tutoring for languages... Silly question really. Actually, it wasn't originally a thread and was never intended to be, it was initially a slightly off-topic post in some other one. The...

    Best/Worst Novel

    i really enjoyed the obernewtyn chronicles! Jodi Picoult, on the other hand.....terrible. I hated Ninetenn minutes, didn't get past the first chapter. I read a review recently in the SMH of her new book and it didn't have one good thing to say. Picoult's stuff is ghastly.
