I'm currently in Y12 taking L3 Eng, Bio, and Calculus. Looking back on this year in L3 Bio, it hasn't been my greatest and I'm finding myself struggling quite a bit, only getting merits on my topic tests and internals. And an additional worst case scenario: I happen to have the worst bio teacher for L3. It really stings because I've enjoyed Bio so much and even got a prizegiving award for L2 Bio, which I owe all respect to my L2 Bio teacher who had helped me through it all. But it's been really hard this year, especially with the low amount of support that my current teacher has given us - it just happened to be that out of the 4 L3 teachers at our school, I just happened to have her this year, for the most important level as well.

I'm hoping to study dentistry (or optometry as a back up) hopefully in Australia, but my performance in L3 Bio hasn't been the greatest lately, and I'm not expecting any good results for our mocks next term. Calculus and English I can try get through well, but Bio not so much currently. Our subject choices are beginning soon, and I've looked at my current choices, and still have one remaining spot for a subject of choice. Since I will have completed L3 English and Calc by the end of this year, I was wondeirng if it's possible to retake L3 Bio in order to try and reach greater results? I'm yet to discuss things with some teachers at school, but I'm really desperate. This year has been really tough: doing triple science, calc, eng, and japanese. I hadn't done physics further than year 9 accelerate (so for 2-3 years) so picking up on L2 Physics was already a hard juggle. I don't plan to take japanese next year, but will instead switch to music and take it as a 'free' period due to previous experience.

Please, I need some advice. Is it possible to retake L3 Bio next year in Y13?

*also worth noting that the atar requirement for dentistry (let alone Med) is quite high in Aus so im just trying my best to get all the excellences i can from subjects that are much more heavily weighed for conversion 😓🙏*

I see people are all over the place on Twitter/X and other platforms, so I'd like to just quote this from a post on X (I will post this under the discussions for others to see too):

Here is the actual factual ground truth from South Korea to save you from the timeline panic

The petition on the National Assembly board is real (due to a historical detail dispute in Ep 11), but its actual threat level is completely overblown. A petition needs 50,000 signatures in 30 days just to be reviewed by a committee—it is nowhere near a binding law.

Furthermore, a local government committee has zero legal authority to force a global, US-based platform like Disney+ to wipe an independent piece of intellectual property from its worldwide servers.

It takes 7 days for a petition to fully process so it seems these people were already planning a scheme towards the actors and the drama from the moment ep11 aired. This isn't anything but a smear campaign now. If we take it into account: Snowdrop faced intense public backlash over allegations of historical distortion and romanticising the South Korean regime. It received a whole lot of hate and controversies before and even during airing, with and even had a massive petition sent to the South Korean presidential Blue House which garnered over 365,000 signatures. But it's achievements globally and on Disney+ - it was NEVER removed. The Blue House dismissed the formal petition to stop the broadcast, as the law protects artistic freedom, but JTBC network later issued formal apologies and released episodes 3 through 5 consecutively to contextualize the storyline and alleviate concerns. It still remains iconic till this day. Actors are free to talk about it.

All we can do now is ignore everything and just go with the flow. This is just a minority of people who want to apply a smear campaign on Perfect Crown and its actors due to its immense success. Being realistic: there's no way a drama whcih garnished intense popularity and broke records nationally and worldwide would be removed from a global, US platform this easily. These people need to actually get a grip. I also hope the production team fight for the drama's rights and speak up or something.

The production team and Director Park Jun-hwa have already chosen a practical route: they formally apologized and explicitly stated they are simply editing and patching the specific audio/subtitle scenes for all future streams. Both IU and Byeon Woo-seok also handled it with immense grace, posting sincere personal apologies on Instagram taking full responsibility as lead actors. This is no longer constructive criticism or hate: it's a smear campaign that's been calculated to tarnish all the actors and the drama's success.

Petition is only a weapon of agitation, and the drama cannot be forcibly stopped as a petition.

Most of the people who submitted this petition are haters who already have a 'grudge' against the lead actors, especially the right-wingers who hate IU for donating food to the impeachment demo supporters at the end of 2024. So this petition doesn't represent the public who have actually moved on from this controversy.

Needing 50,000 in a country with millions of people, where there was even a drama that had over 300k and it wasn’t removed..... They can keep making mockery of themselves atp.
Well, this is not even our headache to bear, may they keep having headaches over PC till their heads blow off💀

The domestic noise is already settling. The show concluded its domestic broadcast run at an incredible 13.8% series high and is currently dominating at No. 3 Worldwide on Disney+ with 490 points. It is NOT being deleted; it is simply being patched behind the scenes. Rest easy! 📈👑✨

I've chosen to take L2 physics this year (along with my other two sciences) as it's a required subject if I want to look into studying optometry in the future (an option). I didn't do L1 physics and so I'm lowkey finding myself clueless as we go through the mechanics course.

I was part of the accelerate program at school in Y9 and so I have a very limited scope on physics, but we only covered the basic Y9/Y10 materials of forces and motion, light, and electricity (with forces and motion being my weakest point). My teacher isn't one who would be recommended as a good teacher, especially when it comes to cases like me who hasn't touched physics-related work since Y9, 3 years ago.

I think it's just all the concepts covered in the mechanics unit and the amount of formulas too which seem confusing and jarring to me. Is there any hope for me to progress well in physics despite having no prior knowledge of L1? Also, because we were accelerated, I never covered energy as well.

Can someone also explain to me about the different concepts in depth (I don't think my teacher does it enough). The only ones which I've got understanding on (due to completing L2 Calc) are:

• Graphs - Vectors and Scalors
• Kinematic equations
• Vector works (adding, subtracting)

Can someone please help me with these concepts:

• The different forces + in context
• Hooke's law (springs - energy?)
• Projectile motion
• Circular motion (centripetal force vs centrifugal force + calculating them)?
• Torque (single pivot, double pivot + equilibrium, centre of mass)
• Energy and momentum (kinetic, energy stored in spring, gravitational potential energy, conservation of energy, momentum + change of momentum, impulse, conservation of momentum)

I've really got to find time to go over everything that's been covered and make notes on them, but as we've only been doing our 2.1 reports portfolio these past few weeks + whole of last term, I've been focusing more on my L3 subjects and other internals so I haven't had any time to review physics.

Hi! Just wanted to ask if anyone has excellence exemplars for the L2 Chem 2.1 titration quantitative analysis. I have my internal beginning next week and wanted to ask for help on structure and things to add + tips.
