They don't publish the reflection statement anymore.. therefore the mark doesnt really matter, since someone could have went very well in their major work, and shit in their reflection statement.

Congrats everyone!! I got 46/50. MUCH higher than i expected. I think that the subjective nature of the marking is very much hilighted by the fact that even though i barely got an E4, i'm still nominated for showcase.... Hmm, i BET a man marked my major work! arghhhhh Anyway, regardless...

YAY! i got a letter today saying that i was nominated! BEST-DAY-EVER!

Mine was kind of like that in a way... http://community.boredofstudies.org/608/major-works/219421/bos-showcase-2009-major-works/16.html#post4558523 (it's about half way down the page)

The essay Q was almost identical to the one on the catholic trial :)

LOL, ditto!

if they say 3, i will walk directly out of the exam room and over a cliff....

It would be mean for them to say "all 3 perscribed" or to specify which perscribed IMO.... they better not.! But, i'm going to know them all just incase, because otherwise i won't be able to sleep at night :S

hahaha, yeah, i know.. but i'm speaking explicitly... like, there were no complicated calculations of financial ratios, ect... I just think that in relation to previous years, it was extremely unbalanced.

Did anyone else notice the semi-absence of Finance and Business Management and Change on the Business HSC exam? There was like 2 or 3 MCQ's about it, but that's it. hmmm.. why the hell would they do that? It makes the exam look unprofessional. Shouldn't they have balanced it?

it makes up for the ridiculous SOR exam yesterday :)

I found the peace question quite gay! It only asked for 1 religion.. and i prepared for 2. So i could only write half an essay. FML oh, and section 3 was bullshit. that is all.

I've had a cold since last Sunday morning... and i'm on meds that interact with panadol and cold and flu tablets ... so i've been downing strepsils and covering myself in vicks chest rub all week. It's harder to study when your sick, i know, but try and do some reading and gentle revising...

You really need to buy the economics book new. The book changes ever year, and sometimes the content changes DURING the year (i have to re-learn the first few topics for HSC because everything has changed.... AND the final chapter of the book is now obsolete because labour laws have changed)...

Economics 70% eeeek :S
