2014 HSC English Predictions? (1 Viewer)

[mreditor16]

Something on barriers to belonging. Also, 2 relateds.
Barriers is one of the few aspects that hasn't been tested in the syllabus

barriers has been tested by BOSTES before iirc.

 

[mreditor16]

This is my poorly worded attempt at predicting the q:

"Different perspectives may or not be given a voice in texts.

To what extent has the presence, or absence, of a voice shaped your own perception of belonging?

In your response make reference to blah blab (One or more related)"

imo, draws too close to conflicting perspectives.

Has identity been tested before?

 

[mreditor16]

Has identity been tested before?

not that I remember...

 

[faisalabdul16]

not that I remember...

Probably something like that then.

But for some reason i just keep thinking that the question is going to be something that will put people off during reading time or it will be a speech however who you address it to or what you have to talk about will also be weird. :[

 

[Intrinsic]

Here are the key words from the syllabus that have been incorporated into belonging essay questions since 2009:

2013: Choices, Attitudes
2012: Perceptions, Time, World
2011: Perceptions, Connections, Places
2010: World, Enrich or Limit, Experience
2009: Understanding

Doing english the entire day has made me realise how boring it actually is.

 

[Fade1233]

Definitely wrong. I don't think the Board of Studies cares about your real life (if you have one).

Face facts, honey.

Oh I know this guy. Welcome back to insult people.

I wouldn't be surprised if they asked that, BOS hates everyone.
anyways, good luck

Ahhh.... Fms are you a girl or a guy?

Doing english the entire day has made me realise how boring it actually is.

Man you are slow. I did two mins in yr7 and I realised every second after that, the pain of doing English.

Hahaha my original thought was that English isn't that bad. Like yes it's boring doing essays blah blah but not that bad.
Whereas in maths, i can sit here all day and do it and not get bored, but after today, where english was the only subject i touched, it made me truly realise how boring it is.

 

[Fade1233]

Wow I'm so sorry just because I predicted a question....

And pls Shotsatme, its Board of Studies, Teaching and Educational Standards. Get your shit together m8.

Whow easy there fan. You got aggravated by someone you barely know.

The question will be: what is your definition of belonging and how does your prescribed text encapsulate this notion

 

[obliviousninja]

Also lol @ people's whose thesis show no insight. Great work if after 1 year of studying belonging, your understanding of belonging is about 'place, identity etc etc' all those stupid one or two word phrases listed in the rubric. Ie. No real thesis. Does not really jump out to a marker. Quite lack lustre

 

[Hi there444]

Would love that . Would literally started laughing during reading time [emoji1]

 

[YOLO_SWAYG]

This might be irrelevant but how do you structure an essay requiring two related texts?

 

[BLIT2014]

Paragraph 1- perscribed text
Paragraph 2- related text
Paragraph 3-perscribed text
Paragraph 4- Related text 2

 

[Colemans]

Paragraph 1- perscribed text
Paragraph 2- related text
Paragraph 3-perscribed text
Paragraph 4- Related text 2

Paragraph 1- perscribed text
Paragraph 2- related text 1
Paragraph 3-perscribed text
Paragraph 4- Related text 3

[Hi there444]

[BLIT2014]

[MrTammoth]

holy fuck if it is speech ... i'm gonna fking slit myself with my blunt pen.

 

[MrInoeverthin]

We shouldn't worry much if we're prepared (which I'm assuming). Just have 2 related texts ready, and you should be fine. I think....
