Ice222 Posted November 20, 2011 Report Share Posted November 20, 2011 Yeah, yeah smarty pants. I Bet you looked that up lol, me or Squirt ? I used to find NCEA so annoying, esp since were were one of the first years to be using it and some teachers continued to mark by ABC or percentage. Now that I've been to uni I've found that the ABC system can actually be worse depending where you go and what papers you do. Different universities, different departments and different percentages convert to different ABC values which in turn do different things to your GPA. I have friends who did medicine, telling me that it seemed much harder to get A's in some Arts papers they tired. Even if the content is easier, since the marking it's so subjective to the marker, it can be difficult to get the higher marks. Now I kinda wish that the uni marking systems were as clear as NCEA about what your are getting marks on, now you don't even get assessment papers back unless if you pay to request them sent back, and even then you don't get the kind of feedback you'd have gotten in school.

#!CrunchBang Posted November 20, 2011 Report Share Posted November 20, 2011 Auckland Uni has A's, B's, C's and D's. Massey Uni has A's, B's, C's D's and E's. NCEA's is similar to Australia's High distinction etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sophia Posted November 25, 2011 Report Share Posted November 25, 2011 In other news, this evening I did a feed, then a little while later a water change and moved the male rasbora in with the females in the breeding tank and then left them to it. This one has the marbles in the bottom so hopefully I get some fry from this experiment. Also found I still have 5 celestial pearl danio fry in the grow out tank which also makes me exceeeedingly happy. Their golden pearls arrived yesterday and so far all the little fish are excited to eat it. I took a video of some yesterday but photobucket wouldn't upload it.

Squirt Posted November 25, 2011 Report Share Posted November 25, 2011 Water change, some fish shopping and last exam :happy1: :happy2: , on a side note can you use pool filter sand in an aquarium? I find it's better to buy just the amount of sand I need rather than having 20kg to spare... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcrudd Posted November 25, 2011 Report Share Posted November 25, 2011 Staring at my grumpy kitty cat. She does not like her catcage or going for a drive to get vaccinations. So to top her bad day I added a microchipping too, she is following me around like a little tail giving me this horrible grumpy look all the time. Took a pic to show you guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squirt Posted November 25, 2011 Report Share Posted November 25, 2011 Cheers, I can order 25kg for $25. Anybody else want some? :slfg: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sophia Posted November 26, 2011 Report Share Posted November 26, 2011 I like that kitty photo, she does indeed look grumpy. Squirt, if you want cheap-cheap try a landscaping supplies store, I got a 25kg back of river sand for I think about $6. They usually have different grades and colours too.
