							| Actually, they are both exactly the same.   eg. He is studying hard in  order to pass his exams.= He is studying hard so as to pass his exams.    They are both used when talking about the same person.    If you have different subjects then you use so that.   eg. The teacher is making us study hard so that we can pass our exams.    I hope I �ve been of some help to you.   Best regards,    Faye |  17 Feb 2010
