Welcome all. This site is dedicated to helping students through their final year of Secondary Education. Here you can find guides on how to handle exams, manage your time for assignments tests and of course a life! There is also a download area for students who wish to sample previous Year 12's work and maybe use them as a guide for your own work or simply use them for ideas. This site is mainly aimed at Australian students, however it may also be useful for others around the world who need some general guidance and help in the final year of school which precedes College(America) or University(UK and Australia). Below is a small menu of options which give further info on this site.
To start looking through the resources on this site:

My name is Andrew Halliday and I am an old collegian of Concordia College in
Adelaide, South Australia. I graduated with the class of 1997 and am studying a bachelor
of Software Engineering at the University of South Australia. I built this site to teach myself HTML programming in the time between finishing year 12 (the final year of South
Australian secondary education) and starting university.

This site will be of most use to Concordia students. However, a lot of
this site will be equally as useful for all other South Australian year
12's. On a national level, the usefulness of various sections will vary,
depending on the differences between syllabuses (educational content
guidelines) of each subject. For example, English may be a useful
subject to students of other states because similar texts are studied and there
is a lot of free choice in the work given. However, with a subject like
Chemistry, there can be a lot of differences in topics studied and the depth of
coverage.
Internationally, I would have no idea of this sites usefulness and I
assume that only the general section would be of any great
relevance. In the more specific sections, only certain notes or pieces of
work may be relevant, so feel free to pick and choose.

There are two main sections to this site:
GENERAL content will include:
SPECIFIC content of this site is limited to the subjects
I completed in year 12. These are :
On each of these, the following will be available:
- HELP / General 'pointers' on
- overall approach to the subject
- approaches to major assignments of that subject
- all of my past assignments that I handed up in year 12 for that subject* and the mark that I obtained
(fully downloadable word documents for use on school computers or whatever)
- typed versions of notes that I made in major noting subjects
(these are Chemistry, Economics and Business Maths)
Finally, all of this information has been placed in point format wherever
possible to make it pleasing to the eye and most of all, easy to read.

Having done year 12, I know that it is not exactly a stroll in the park. In
fact, calling it total hell would be an understatement.
Therefore, the main reason for establishing this site is to help fellow
Concordians, South Australians, Australians and even people overseas, who are
doing year 12 (or the equivalent).
In three of my five main subjects, I did almost everything on the computer, so
it is not really that hard to place this work on the internet. In other words,
my other main reason for making this site is that I can get it running fairly
quickly and it will be very robust.

If you have trouble in exam study, test study, major assignments or
time management, then the general section is the place to start. Simply
follow the guidelines that are given in the documents and see how well they
work. You can get back to me about these things (preferably through email) or
you can speak to the teachers at your school.
If you need guidance for a particular subject, maybe management of
assignments, presentation, or general approach, then the specific subject
discussions will cover this.
Finally, if you simply need ideas or want to get a sample of the type of work
expected, then you can go into the download section to see samples of my work
and the marks that I obtained (moderated).
If something in this site is inadequate or you are in need of more specific
help, and there are no other sources available (always try teachers first),
then you can email me with your problem. Please see the next section for my
contact details.
