Yeaaaah but the whole point of being the VN Dux is that you're a regular contributor to the forums. Hence, Appianway is the true Dux of 2010.
2011 - English, English Language, Philosophy, Indonesian SL, Outdoor and Environmental Studies.

“We are all alone, born alone, die alone, we shall all someday look back on our lives and see that, in spite of our company, we were alone the whole way. I do not say lonely -- at least, not all the time -- but essentially, and finally, alone. This is what makes your self-respect so important, and I don't see how you can respect yourself if you must look in the hearts and minds of others for your happiness.”
― Hunter S. Thompson

That would probably be because they all dropped physics and then went to uni bio/chem. A few from my class alone (we had one of the worst teaching years in a decade) dropped physics to do a uni sub.

+1, I think the limit should be 200 posts or more

I think 'totaled' shoould be a candidate.
He's quiet on the forums but ur mind will be blown at what hes done already LOL.
+ he is breaking MHS traditions and doing uni subs.
Awks.
And i will not reveal who he is hehehe...
its an asian btw. And not me :D Not pro enough.
He's got some 50's in the bag
I also think thushan is a good candidate (yeah i know hes on the list)

p.s should totes make a poll on 'who will get into monash med'
I reckon that is harder than being dux of .. anything :P

+1, on the day results came out, I searched the 50s section and he was there.

We should make another vn dux poll towards the end of the year. That way it gives a chance for people to contribute/post more so we can see if they are a potential dux.

Yep, or even a something related to time active, considering the Dux should probably be around helping for at least half the year, not just joining at exam times like a lot of people do.

Agreed. Or the 99.95ers that join AFTER results and try to claim the VN Dux title.

So many 99.95ers joined up after results with some posts about their result and tutoring ads and whatnot.

Whilst it is fine, definitely should not be labelled as the "dux" of VN.

why do you need to post to be a vn dux.

you can use this forum for all its good resources without having to poast heaps/


i don't see why a person with minimal posts cannot be counted as a legitimate dux.

IMO they are still 'dux' but i dont think that they can be called the true dux compared to someone who has contributed to the community - as this is one of the purposes of VN

I think that a forum is meant to include providing your opinion and resources, not a one way ticket of taking and not paying back :P
2010: Business Management [47]
2011: English [44]   |   Chemistry [45]  |   Methods [44]   |   Specialist [42]   |   MUEP Chemistry [5.0]   |   ATAR: 99.60
UMAT: 69 | 56 | 82 | = [69 / 98th Percentile]

I don't think there's anything wrong with that particularly and I'm all for people just leeching, but I don't see why someone would want to be recognised as a dux in a community where they're not known anyway. Don't see what they have to gain from that at all.
