    Order your CAO by what you want, not your nerves about what you will get in points!!

    Yeah it's hard to do that! :P Cause I want Engineering, Medicine and Mathematical Science, and I'm not sure which I want more. :pac:

    For applied maths I'm going into cram overdrive from Monday afternoon to Friday :pac:

    Ah sure it's grand, just what I'm used to.

    Oh stop :p You've two whole days to revise :) Besides, Aspiring, Nimrod and I are doing it as well!


    Stop with the defeatist attitude, it's bit befitting!



    If you want it you definitely should :) Just start working :p You'll still get a better HPAT result than me :pac:

    I guess two days is enough time to get a lot done.:pac: I already have 8 subjects, Applied Maths is my 9th hahahha :P

    I am not looking forward to these HPAT results, I forgot when they come out.

    Is Ubuntu any good? My friend recommended it but I just never got around to getting it..

    It's grand once you get used to it.

    It also stops your parents from ever trying to use your computer. Assuming your parents are of average IT literacy.

    One thing I'll give opera is that you can download torrents straight from it. Well you could in 2008 don't use it anymore but I assume that's still the case :o

    I didn't know about that. That's actually a good feature, if it still has it.

    We do CAST, going anti clockwise.

    I think for S it's 180-x, for T it's 180+x, and for C it's 360-x.


    Please tell me that's right. Please. I could do without panicking over trig. :pac:

    I think it's C A S T ?

    Formula is like
    image length= k(object length)

    area of image= k^2(object length)

    where k is the scale factor :)
