| 193945 | 2003-11-26 09:58:00 | Cool, what subject did you do? Well.. for some reason, we're still expected to do work and complete assignments, etc. Because in theory, we're fourth formers :p | ~~~~~ s y ~~~~~ (2054) | ||
| 193946 | 2003-11-26 19:40:00 | Apparently if you fail, and do a resit, you can only get Achievement no matter how well you do. | somebody (208) | ||

That was the policy used last year when NCEA was been rolled out and implemented. It was changed towards the end of the year after schools had ~3 terms to try it and then submit their opinions in respect to what's hot and what's not with the new scheme. Now you can fail and gain excellence upon resit. |

| 193948 | 2003-11-26 19:48:00 | That's what I thought too. But I'd assume there would be some level of misunderstanding about how the whole system works among teachers. |

| 193949 | 2003-11-26 19:58:00 | oh ok... now imagine how happy the people who did School cert would have been if they failed, and were able to resit and get 90%... | somebody (208) | ||
| 193950 | 2003-11-26 20:21:00 | Excellences are amied at the the top 5% of new zealand And then achievement is aimed at about 65% and then merit is 30% or it is something like that. I only failed one internal this year at that was P.E internal - Now don't get me wrong i love sport and physical activity, but it was crap, writing and stuff for p.e dammit |

| 193951 | 2003-11-26 20:45:00 | English was ok, it was economics that killed me, you had to give a reason for every flippen answer, and I ran out of a lot of time. I am generally a bit slow when it comes to exams, because stress just kills my brain, and I can't even work out simple problems, I gotta stare at it for ages. Bleeeargh. |

| 193952 | 2003-11-26 21:42:00 | I use cheat codes: 1) When I'm playing game, and i'm stuck at a point where I can't pass no matter what - and I either give up on playing the game - never play it agian, or use a code to pass the point - and continue to play the game. 2) I have clocked the game, or played it so much that it's no longer fun, I will use cheats - just to make it a little more funner - and playable. Take AoE2 - I played all the campaigns on that - no cheats (i loved that game :D) after i had done that (and purchased the expansion pack) i used to play deathmatch's and that using the cheats - teh cars, photon man etc - just for a bit more fun.. As for online games - I've never played a game over the net - i've tried - but no luck - as I'm on dail up |
