Current Year 12 Thread Mark I (2012-2013)

well, I've never actually been to Melbourne before, so hopefully it's as good as people say it is!

How do I find all the odd vertices??? My teacher doesn't explain it well and Mymaths doesn't say it > :C


EDIT: How do they get the vertices and stuff like that so they can plot it on a table

Count the number of lines coming out of each vertex, or letter. For example, B has 3 lines coming out of it, so it is an odd vertex. You do that for all of the letters, and then all the numbers with an odd number of lines (3,5,7 lines, etc.) are the odd vertices.

Hope that helps.

Don't think I'll be going to this sixth form... It's big, and my maths messes up and I dont like the chemistry here...

Just came back from my awards evening. Got 3 prizes including the maths one where I got a book titled Fermat's last theorem. Also got my GCSE certificates, but my maths grade ain't on it annoyed with that.

school reunion today:')
it's going to be weird

Anyone know why polar bonds are not necessarily polar?

Reminds me, I need to go collect my certificates sometime soon.

I should get some sort of maths related book too, so I have something to write about on my PS next year

And how come your maths grade isn't on it?

I think it's because they are symmetrical when they are drawn as a shape and so the dipoles cancel or something like that.

what happened to my school awards ceremony???

I went into my previous secondary school yesterday & I asked to collect my GCSE's certificate,
my secretary told me to come back on the awards evening? Jw is the awards ceremony definitly
In November? If you dont turn up would they just post your certificates to you?

Btw what's this about people getting prizes? Honestly, I would just like to go in collect my certificates & go home.
I don't have time to spend sharing life stories etc in ceremonies.

I am in quite a bad position, I went to submit my application to do C1 in January but now my school knows about people wanting to do it in January and told us there will be severe consequences for people who do it externally. The problem is that as the law has changed and we cannot do any retakes I am worried that if I don't do my C1 in January then I will have too many exams in June and won't be properly prepared for all of them. Anyone have any advice?
