    Year 11 Subjects.

    Hi Is it reasonable that my school doesn't allow students to pick both D&T and Industrial timber together as it adds too much pressure and costs on the student, as 2 major projects need to be built.

    Can unis see our HSC marks and Preferences?

    I need clarifying. Can they see our HSC results or just our ATAR? Also for our preferences can they only see what we put for their uni? or can they see our entire preference list.

Just as if a school marked ur exam and you complained so you got...

    Is there any way to find out what subjects were used to calculate my ATAR?

    And so I turned on my new PC... PART II

    Since the other one closed down and I wasn't finished yet here goes: I used Gparted. It comes with an error, that it loses the DVD drive, and says please specify what drive the data from the disc is located :/ bit weird, since everything loads from that disc already.
