At least two. Marking guidelines, from memory, say that three is probably better.

*Goes crazy. I don't know how I've stayed in the class, there are only 4 of us remaining though, the teacher is good and relatively lenient when it comes to not doing the work. I make up excuses all the time, he laughs but tells me to get my arse into gear... Too late for that now! Even though...

With a little over 24 hours to go before the Extension English 1 exam, I thought I'd waste my time here making a thread to see who else hasn't studied, rather than using my time productively. Leeeeeet me see, I haven't read Anil's Ghost, I've read half of Skull Beneath the Skin and it's been a...

Haha. If only i LEARNT those notes I compiled and wrote a half decent essay... If only. *Sigh.

We're all asked to prepare a creative writing piece throughout the year, as the creative writing section is very broad in what it asks - you can basically adapt any pre prepared answer to the question asked. I haven't yet written one in full yet, but that is because I'm lazy! You're given a...

Okay, basically here are some notes that I have compiled today about The Wizard of Oz. My related text is The Tempest, so I have related some of the points back to that. I hope it helps! :) Initially, the tone and atmosphere are dull. Through the use of sepia, the composer has created...

One day. And I STILL haven't written a creative writing piece or essay. Blooooooooooooody hell. This is really not a good time to have writers block! Symmetries in The Tempest: The Tempest is like, " 'A hall of mirrors' in which reflection is added to reflection in a curiously claustrophobic...

I basically haven't started studying at all. I'm just about to write my creative writing piece. Getting up early FTW.

Yes, cliched and wankerish sums up the HSC English course perfectly! Thanks for those. *Writes a complete imaginative essay for the first time* Arr I'm screwed.

Errm ... He was going out with my bestfriend.

My train was horribly late, I had to basically run to school (it takes 30 minutes to walk at a slow pace) and I got there 3 minutes late. The teacher made a smart arse comment about it, but she accepted it anyway. I'm so lucky they actually submitted it into the Board of Studies...

The past two weeks have led me to realise a myriad of things. Looking at my assessment results lately, and the fact that my Society and Culture Personal Interest Project (30% of exam from my understanding) might not even get marked because it wasn't finished when I handed it in, has made me...

If my teacher wasn't such an idiot, then yes I would probably enjoy it.

My PIP topic was: " 'Bloody Bulletins' - How the media's portrayal of violence impacts adolescents in Australian society." Something like that. My intro and log (mind you, no conclusion or bibliography) amounted to well over 1000 words - more so than my actual Central Material. I...

Well I am currently in Society and Culture at the moment. The teacher just passed me. And said ... "You need to come to terms with your exalted view of your own abilities. You've only produced 800 words in the body of the PIP, we're debating as to whether or not to send it in." Haha...
