Yeah Atwood is long, but an interesting speech - I could've used hers - tell me guys - do you think it's better to do a small amount in-depth or a big amount less in-depth?
Did anyone else had to file for illness/misadventure on paper one? I was so upset - my whole family got sick and at 4am on the morning of the exam I started throwing up and couldn't stop. I went to school to take the exam anyway because there was no way in hell I was letting my study go down the...
geez!
I only did 4, 6, 4.5 - I am not a huge writer though - not a big writer at ALL. SO I guess that's okay, I was writing the whole time - god my hand hurts!
I did 2 with a passing reference to a third, not because I didn't know any more but I felt I would do better writing in-depth on two that brushing only lightly on several. I did Ghettysburg also as well as The Paul Keating one (the passing reference was to Socrates) :) - how many pages did every...
-_-
meh.
not great...
Probably should be reading Browning again but I find him so thoroughly WIERD. Well, I guess its not as BORING as North and SOuth at least :)
3rd out of like, 20 or something (small school)
Which I am happy with considering some of the smarty-pantses in my class - I'm not what you'd call a genius...
I think I might be able to open a can of woop-ass on the exams though! *crosses fingers*
Got 83.5 which was 2nd... still coming top over all though... yay!
I think I will do a whole lot better in the exam though as I know where I went wrong and also I am very pleased with my PIP
I got 50% in my first ever English HSC assessment task - reason? My teacher really hates me. I cried all night when that happened - thought i'd never be able to bring my marks up. Eventually did thouhg, kind of.
Did you do the independant schools trial?
P.S, even though I am still coming 3rd (out of 3 - ha ha!) in Extension, I managed to scramble a woop-ass, class topping mark in the trial!
too bad it wasn't worth barely ANYTHING or I could have changed my ranking... *sigh*
It is very hard when the...
okay i attatched the assessment to the email i just sent you - hope it helps, i forgot to proof read it or anything before i sent it but you'll live... :)
I feel greatly vexed that legally_blonde wishes to kill I&S
lol!
sorry! It's just not really my STYLE - i got outvoted when we chose the topics...
thank god - i just did my trial for it yesterday and the creative writing was a diary entry - i can do a pretty convincing Lydia Bennet...
yeah there's a coupla hopeless people in my school too who refuse to study... i was worried about that also
i actually can't wait to see wait kinda UAI i actually get after the BOS and UAC people finish screwing around with my marks... it will be interesting
yeah we're also apparently up to 'revision time' by which our teacher means we should be up to our 3rd or 4th reading! Ha! As if! North and South is just SO boring i could barely read it ONCE! And as for Robert Browning... sheeshkabob- what a wierdo! The only thing i have managed to do...
yeah i know this annoys you guys but i am way psychin... it would be super awesome if i could get a prediction...
1) Subject: Advanced English / Mark: 87 / Rank: 3/20
2) Subject: English Extension 1 / Mark: 80 / Rank: 3/3
3) Subject: Society and Culture / Mark: 88 / Rank: 1/7
4)...
I'm finding it really helpful to incorporate a lot of my Society and Culture terms into my English responses... (enculturation, socialisation, social construct etc etc)
believe it or not I've almost convinced my English teacher that I am semi-intelligent hahaha
