More school new for you!

Dear Ate, Rank slips are the most daunting thing year 11 students face. Seniors in general actually. But I guess in year 12 it matters more so I probably shouldn't be worrying too much. Point is, I had my half yearlies at the beginning of this term and with the results came rank slips. I told you the next few posts will be all about school... Ok so I got:

1. Chemistry: 56/69 ranked 44/100+ Not happy about that. Not at all. Soooo many of my mistakes were silly. I looked through the paper and the most basic things were overlooked MgF WHO WRITES MGF? ITS MGF2 LOSERFACE! So yeah, after tallying how many mistakes I made, I calculated my would be mark if I actually checked my paper in the few minutes I had let at the end AND I COULD HAVE GOTTEN 63! BOOOOOO
2. English: Pretty bad. like 75% bad but my entire graded did bad so I ranked 24/167 :P
3. Biology: 46/54 ranked 18th out 100+ I'm happy with that because I didn't really study for anything except legal cause it's all content based and there's sooo much to remember. So all my time and effort went into that and all my other subjects go t a quick read over my book :S
4. Art: 24/25 ranked 1 (H)
5. Maths: EHE ! I did terribly. Like super super bad as in 52% bad. Ranked 18th though. Which I found incredibly amusing
6. Legal: 42/50 ranked 12 out of 80+ Mixed feelings about legal because I had to write an essay and I did pretty well in that but the multiple choice and short answer... silly mistakes :P And teh essay, I didn't really want to do well in cause I was arguing for abortion laws to be eradicated and yeah.. not fun

Also, Art. The National Art School has asked a few schools to nominate a student to participate in an intense art theory program that counts as an extra unit to your HSC. And I really wanted to do it cause I'm happy with how I handle art theory but when I saw who else wanted to do it (who funnily enough were the other people who got 24/25:P) , I backed out because they're both interested in art/design related courses in the future and they'd probably benefit from it more. And while my being part of the choices doesn't mean I'm a definite winner, miss said she could squeeze two in so I didn't even say anything but I really really wish I did :P But whatever, they'd get more out of it and it would be mean if I took that opportunity away from them :P
