My To-Do List (before I go away):

- Get money exchanged / organise overseas funds access
- Buy a new bikini
- Get a tan (probably from a can)
- Clean my room (so it doesn't look like an explosion any more)
- Visit various family members
- Acquire a suitcase that isn't as dodgy as mine (likely borrowed from some random family member)
- Put some blonde back in my hair again (I shouldn't have dyed it brown -.-)
- Various parties (must also recover from the strange illness that enables me to go to parties, but not work)
- Get very drunk at many of these said parties.

Don't think so.  He goes to UoM and I think the best method to get there is by public transport.  Unless of course if you're willing to fork out a bit of money for their carparks.

LOL I took French instead, but dropped it last year - didn't want to add to the stress of yr 12 by doing both a LOTE and Spesh so I didn't take 1/2 GMA, and my school didn't let me pick up 3/4 Spesh directly this year, after I'd dropped French, as they believed I'd be disadvantaged because I did not do 1/2.

  given your methods score, that's just :idiot2: of them

Post by: Ilovemathsmeth on November 25, 2009, 04:28:55 pm
Hahaha =P thanks

I told them that I'd do the Spesh 1/2 book in my own time over the Summer and if that wasn't good enough, I'd just do the 3/4 course instead of doing the 1/2 and really work for it, but apparently it still wasn't good enough =(

But in regards to this topic, gosh I'm SO bored today, just went and did the Methods 3/4 exam 1 myself today purely out of boredom.

argh, all the same, and goodluck, althoguh it's easy, i got 98% YAY

LOL, sorry, um. What u should do is look through the yellow PAGES!!!

There are DOZENS of adds, and also many offer great deals. Like yes u can do RACV with the typical "5, 45 min lessons, 1 free" or soemtihng fror $160-200,

BUT, also look for in the yellow pages all these great deals where "make a friend book as well, and get "x" off"

OR "we GUARANTEE u will pass your P's, if not you gte "x" lessons free"

etc, so many good deals. And tbh I think ANY are trustworthy enough, and u only need like 4-5 lessons to kick u off, and then its al up 2 you and ur guardian.

The law is that if you're under 18 you must hold your learner permit for a year, and if above the legal age you must hold it for 6 months.. So either way a bit of coffee wont do much justice   :P

Post by: Gloamglozer on November 30, 2009, 11:09:23 am
Is it difficult to obtain your Ls?

Well, common sense is definitely a pre-requisite and if you sit in the front seat of a responsible driver and are usually quite alert to the road, then you should be fine.

However, most people do find the test pretty easy. 
Title: Re: AFTER EXAMS.. what are we all doing !
Post by: xXNovaxX on November 30, 2009, 12:24:22 pm
LMAO, OF COURSE IT'S EASY!!!

Like, do the online practice 1 or 2 times, 3 if ur good, and u are 99.95% guaranteed to pass =P

Like, they REPEAT THE SAME QUESTIONS. So the more times u practice the more likely the same ones are to come up

Word of advice though.,  it is vital you UNDERSTAND the questions...not merely memorizing them. It's really common sense, you have been driving with ur family in the back seat for 16-18 years, you'r bound to know what "give way" means ><
