hey i did the ag course last year so might be able to share a few tips with you all!

* know your verbs (explain, analyse etc...) because they will help you to answer correctly with enough information
* have examples that you can refer to (eg. as shown in the dryland irrigation areas of western nsw)
* know an example of an animal and plant disease and be able to describe them in detail
* a large portion of the exam (i seem to remember its section II) gives you charts/examples of experiments/tables etc.. and you have to use that information to answer the question... don't forget to also include your own knowledge in this section to score full marks
* for those of you doing electives (as opposed to the research project) don't forget that you can use info from your electives in the core paper - i know for me a lot of it overlapped!

hope that helped a little... good luck guys!

yeah.... i think i'd be kinda shocked to have to travel that far to school, as all I have to do is get out of bed, work up the passage, and I'm there!! (i home schooled ;) )
But we are also 50 km from our main town...

well..... only 3 days left :(
but i guess then its closer till we are all FREEEEEEEEEEE :uhhuh: !!
YAY!!

all the best..,

AG Trial paper 2004

i noe this is a little last minute, but.... i was wondering if any of you have the Catholic Schools or NEAP Ag 2004 trial paper?

some of you should have the NEAP if ur teacher was too lazy to write a paper of their own and decided to buy one instead.
if u do, please please please tell me. (having the solutions will be a great bonus!)

amber. :p

50km that aint that far from town. premer (population 61) which is were i come from is like a 100km to gunnedah... and thats gunnedah the mother of all holes.

i've lived in tamworth to go to school fro the last 7yrs which has sucked but the best part is its almost over.

good luck everyone hope u do well in the rest of your exams
