it would be interesting if they added another physics course and it was like a physics advanced that went into the calculus and real math for behind it for students doing methods/spesh

We should have specialist physics as a subject

My wish list of things I wish I knew:

>Computer programming. (To a higher advantage then what I have now, it's great, but not perfect).
>A way to get a better job.
>The psychology behind reading people's faces. (Going to learn)

Off topic, but 7x7x7's are fun to do! :D They take a while but they're fun! ..... I wish I knew not to get into 3x3x3 "speedcubing" (lets say 17-35 seconds for me) during yr 11 while doing a 3/4 subject....spent too much time on it.

Rubik's cubes are awesome! So far can only solve 3x3, but I'm a lot slower than I used to be (now like 2min, was about 40s in yr10 D:)

Wish I knew how to time warp. Think of all the things you can do with that!

I would, also, have not chosen physics as a subject. I would have taken 4 subjects or picked up Literature (of which I thoroughly enjoyed in Yr 11)
-Would have not lost so many marks in chem sacs due to silly errors (headings not written on prac sacs, stupid mistakes on tests, sig fig error, not properly reading the question)
-Actually stop being cocky in Methods and do methods work (I think its a common problem with the spesh kids)- something of which i am trying to fix

Am taking in students for CHEMISTRY and MATHS METHODS tuition for 2014 as well as first year chemistry. If interested, pm me. Flexible with location.
