Yeah the teachers are a bit :|

Like in Methods 1 & 2, they ran out of time & didn't teach the cohort Probability! :P

IT teachers are the worst though, for some reason.

My Methods 1 and Physics 1/2 teacher was a graduate, who had no experience teaching before.

lol  my physics teacher was a women who was utterly incompetent. My grade had an average score of 60% compared to the other grade who had 85%.
Sure, there were a lot of dropkicks in my class, but she just didn't know how to explain things to us properly!
Lucky ive got my dad who has got a phd in physics, which helps when im stuck on a question :P

Ours was a women also. Average score for both classes was 50-60%. Provided I get into my Enhancement Study, I'll be dropping Physics. The Physics department at my school, frankly, sucks.

Yeh, University Enhancement Study. Study two IT subjects at Monash, and get an increment toward my aggregate based upon my results (HD = 5.5 increment). Anyway, this is getting off-topic :P

Thanks for the help though! :)

Just one last thing: To get a good score in IT, all you need to do is try. 

This is so true. I did SD last year, where everyone messed around heaps (played CS most days), but when it came to the SACs and exams, everyone knucked down. Class avg was about 37 (i got 40).

Also, the texbook i used was the one by Adrian Janson and someone (don't have it anymore and forgot the name sorry), as Janson was my teach.
Awesome guy, but in like 12 months he went in for major surgery (wasn't at school for 3 weeks), had a kid (wasn't there fore the final weeks of school), and then the year after went on long service/paternal leave/won a holiday to Spain for 2 months!
