Financial maths is probably the easiest topic in the course.

I dropped from 2u to General about a week into term one. I had been in advanced maths from year 7 and have never been into maths at all, but have the ability to be good at it I guess. I have been first in the general course since I dropped down because it is just so simple. The thing that gets...

I got the day off today, no exams! Tomorrow I have my english paper 2 in the morning and then I have the afternoon and Friday off.

I actually wanted to do Ancient History, but when I wanted to swap into one of the Ancient classes they were on different lines on the timetable and I would have had to drop another one of my subjects instead. But I love Modern History, it is actually really interesting...

How did you know? :P But really, I just find it hard to study things I already know, so I just don't.

My boyfriend is leaving for a years exchange to Canada at the end of January. He is in year 12 now, I'm in year 11. I am not too fazed about him leaving now, if it works out it works out, we will see what happens when he gets back, we have been together for 16 months and hey, maybe a break will...

I looked into this, something to aim for thats for sure. Although I am hoping for a UAI in the 90's, I really do not think that i will get the required UAI for this course.

Jindy was awesome, however after a week of flat out skiing, I was in bed for 3 days because I could not move.

No, you just need to be able to make things up and write them in such a way that the marker is astounded by your sophistication, it seems to work well.

I dropped Business Studies a week into it and swapped to Modern History. I could not stand it, I liked Commerce in year 9 and 10, but Business was shocking. Aside from that the only other change I made to my subjects was dropping for Advanced Maths to General, why? Because I have a strong...

I love English, which is why i'll be doing Extension Two. Despite the fact that I love it, sometimes I sit there and think "this is ridiculous, how the hell am I meant to know what the composer was thinking or feelings at the time?!". Aside from that I can anaylse pretty much anything, so...

Some would say that, others say lazy with a good memory and a knack for the subjects she is doing...

Interesting, we are doing the Socially Unacceptable and Values of Society. We have done Frankenstein, The Life and Crimes of Harry Lavender, Snow Falling on Cedars (film version) Sin City and another of our own chosing, in my case Catch Me When I Fall by Nicci French. We do Apocolypse Now in...

You will get very sick of studying four hours a night every night. Although this is coming from someone who hardly does any study and is ranked between 1st and 5th in every course she is doing. Plans for year 12? Drop General Maths, pick up Extension 2 English and Extension History, and start...

Figure out how you study and how you learn, then use that to your advantage. If you learn by listening to people, get someone to read out your notes, or read them and record them. If you learn by writing things out, re-write your notes, summarise, re-write them again, until you know them off by...

My Extension Exam is not until next week and it shouldn't be that hard. What are you studying?
