people actually do this. i was driving through wellington with my aunt a few years ago and she pointed out all these cargo crates stacked on a hill. apparently some guy lived there. he'd really made it liveable too, had cut windows into the side and light and everything!
so i can i hope for a 92 with a raw mark of about 82/120? I screwed this one up massively massively, was a bit upset for several days, was actually too afraid to look on BOS to read what everyone's saying. But it's good to know heaps of other people had problems with it as well
what the hell. that's the stupidest thing I ever read. "Drain on community's resources"? When the guy is like the most important medical services provider in the town?

yep. My English Adv teacher was a KL marker last year...has been giving us speeches all year about how hsc markers can "spot a pre-prepared essay from a mile away", the more specific questions are trying to pick out people who can really engage with the texts. although I suspect that most people...
not by hsc, by uac, don't worry. The HSC marks in the table correspond to the actual marks you will see on your transcript - ie. the mark and band you got in that subject. The UAC "scaled marks" are number not shown to anyone except to the UAC. They are used for no other purpose than to...
agreed. this is the stupidity of hsc english. it breeds kids with the physicality to speed-write essays and comparatively disadvantages people who try to show the spontaneous creative and analytical skills that english is all about. plus a lot of the top-ranked english students in my year are...
