Heyyy all!!! This website is sooooo exciting!!
1. What year level are you in right now, and what are your subjects? (Mandatory)
I'm currently in year 12 and my subjects are Standard English, Gen.Maths, Modern History, Senior Science and Legal Studies.
2. What movie do you most passionately hate? Provide justification. (Mandatory)
Hmmmm....i think I've run out of time to watch movies...this HSC is crazy ;)
3. In the event of a zombie apocalypse, what would be your weapon of choice? (Mandatory).
Most likely a bar of chocolate. They surely wouldn't eat me instead of that??? LIke what they would havta be crazy!!...unless I'd already eaten it before they got there... :/
4. Who do you want to be as a person, what do you want to achieve? (Optional)
I want to be someone who is always positive and makes others feel wanted. If I can't do that, then really nothing else I do will be worth it. And if I could be anything, I'd probably be a politician. As Skyersie said "Its just a shame most people see all politicians and greedy and power hungry, when some just want to create change". That's exactly how I feel!!
5. If you had to summarise your life in a paragraph, what would you say? (Optional).
My life is the best! I'm incredibly lucky to have a loving family and community plus food, shelter and a warm secure bed! Not everyone gets this ya know!! :)

2. What movie do you most passionately hate? Provide justification. (Mandatory) Is it weird to say Hugo? We watched it in year 8 and ever since I have hated it with a passion. But everyone else seems to love it?!

You and I are going to get along just fine.

Welcome to the forums tay!! ;D

1. What year level are you in right now, and what are your subjects? (Mandatory) Currently attempting Year 11. It's difficult but I'm still fighting. Subjects are Advanced English, Mathematics, Senior Science, Modern History, Business Studies and Visual Design.
2. What movie do you most passionately hate? Provide justification. (Mandatory) Is it weird to say Hugo? We watched it in year 8 and ever since I have hated it with a passion. But everyone else seems to love it?!
3. In the event of a zombie apocalypse, what would be your weapon of choice? (Mandatory) Definitely an axe/sword of some kind
4. Who do you want to be as a person, what do you want to achieve? (Optional) I want to complete Year 12 knowing I did my best and achieved success...looks like i'm gonna be using AT a lot  :D
5. If you had to summarise your life in a paragraph, what would you say? (Optional) I had cancer in year 9-10...8 rounds of chemotherapy...numerous nights in hospital...missed 3/4 of year 9-10...injections like you wouldn't believe...lost my hair...lost my friends...lost my confidence...but I'm working on that ;)...so every lesson I walk into I feel at a disadvantage e.g. learning how to write an essay, those basic maths skills...anyway sorry for the negativity...really looking forward to using this site and achieving my dreams! :) :)

Regarding 5. Glad you're staying strong :) Congratulations for fighting it AND having the motivation to continue. I genuinely commend you for that. Dream high fam

As long as you work hard there exists no disadvantage, most people messed around the whole of year 10 anyway. Year 11 is truly where foundations are built and Year 12 is all part of perfecting them.

I hope Atarnotes is warm place for you :) I'll see you round~!

This isn't my first post (nowhere near) but I believe I did not post here when I first joined so here it is :)

1. What year level are you in right now, and what are your subjects? (Mandatory)
Year 12 and 5 months til graduation.

Extension 2 Mathematics
Extension 1 Mathematics
Advanced English
Information Processes and Technology
Studies of Religion 1
Legal Studies

I also took Preliminary Physics but dropped out at the end of last year.

2. What movie do you most passionately hate? Provide justification. (Mandatory)

It would be the latest Ghostbusters. That thing made no sense and bored me to pieces :( I also hated Ghost In The Shell and fell asleep during the screening :\ I did not feel any emotional bonding for any of the characters, they also seemed to never develop in a meaningful manner and the plots were really poorly executed.

3. In the event of a zombie apocalypse, what would be your weapon of choice? (Mandatory).

I would take a Gun. Maybe a P90 due to it's compact nature and armour piercing capabilities. Being able to run around would be a huge bonus.

4. Who do you want to be as a person, what do you want to achieve? (Optional)

No idea. 5 months til graduation and still deciding. I do have a interest in philosophy, psychology and politics though. I wouldn't mind doing a double degree with one of em involved. Alike to Jamon I also want to improve somebody else's life. My english tutor has genuinely impacted my life, introduced me into the world of philosophy and unearthed many of my previous self delusions. I wish to do the same for somebody in the future.

5. If you had to summarise your life in a paragraph, what would you say? (Optional).

Pretty damn good until recently. Still going strong though, last stretch~

Where to beyond Physics at VCE? What are the possibilities or the directions that Physics can take you after High School?

completely forgot to do this when i first joined, so ... better late than never? (:

1. What year level are you in right now, and what are your subjects? (Mandatory)
year twelve (vce). my subjects are in my sig, but for the sake of completeness: took bio last year, taking english, lit, revolutions, hhd, legal studies and extension history at ltu this year.

2. What movie do you most passionately hate? Provide justification. (Mandatory)
oooh. um. i'm not really a movie person? she says, whilst literally buying tickets to see wonder woman. generally if i don't like something, i just kind of don't watch it haha, but right now my most hated movie is bend it like beckham solely because i found out yesterday that jess and jules were almost a thing and holy heck i'd have sold my soul to see that. otherwise, idk, any horror movie ever made would also work as my answer.

3. In the event of a zombie apocalypse, what would be your weapon of choice? (Mandatory).
um. the golden rule is no weapons that can run out of ammunition, right? in that case, i'd probably take a baseball bat because i don't really trust any of my skills but fifteen years of tennis means my swinging's okay lmao. but like i'd straight up die in ten seconds, so it doesn't make much of a difference.

4. Who do you want to be as a person, what do you want to achieve? (Optional)
i like helping people? but i have no idea what i want to do with my life. graduating year twelve knowing i worked as hard as i could have would be a nice start.

5. If you had to summarise your life in a paragraph, what would you say? (Optional).
this one time, i slept twenty hours straight and it was the greatest day of my life.

1. What year level are you in right now, and what are your subjects? (Mandatory)
As of now, 2017, am year 11, doing Methods (CAS) 1/2, Physics 1/2, Economics 1/2, English 1/2, and VCE/VET Business 3/4.

Am starting an Accounting Cert IV through school, will be doing Accounting next year, after finishing Business

2. What movie do you most passionately hate? Provide justification. (Mandatory)
Ready 2 Die (2014). Absolutely horrible - have to dig through about a thousand layers to find the plot, which isn't worth that much effort. About as enthralling as a 3 year old would find Tolstoy's 'War and Peace'.

3. In the event of a zombie apocalypse, what would be your weapon of choice? (Mandatory).
Does a Cessna count as a weapon? Just some sort of transport to get the heck out of it all.  ;)

5. If you had to summarise your life in a paragraph, what would you say? (Optional).

Where to beyond Physics at VCE? What are the possibilities or the directions that Physics can take you after High School?

Hey, doddsy! Welcome aboard. :) Your best bet might be to ask this question in the Physics forum, where you'll hopefully get some good answers. :)

For HSC Physics, try this.
For VCE Physics, try this.

Let me know if you need any help! :D

Always better late than never. ;) 20 hours straight is impressive as - what was the motivation? Hahaha.

Was working towards Accountancy. It's a big world, and money is one of the few things the future will still have.
Not sure how I'll go if I have to drop out of Methods tho...
Ever heard of an Accountant that failed math ??? ?
