    Exam thoughts?

    WWI multiple choice was a bit weird for me, other than that the section was good. : ) Russia and the Soviet Union: Probably the best part of the paper for me to be honest, for question 15a. The other one was on Stalin's purges and Show Trials and yeah no thanks... Hahaha. Personality: Pretty...

    Band 6 cutoff predictions

    Haha same here don't worry I know how you feel for Maths. Mmm... maybe 85/105? Probably between 82-85/105.

    Modern History Essay Predictions

    If it's Cambodia or Pol Pot I will be pretty happy with that! Or a Tet Offensive question (but that was asked in 2016), or Social, Economic, Political impacts up to 1964. Big Three or Strategies/Tactics are pretty good too. Good thing for WWI you have the sources too.

    Predictions

    After the 4 unit exam I'm pretty worried. @SupR focus on your weakest areas and do some pretty hard questions on your weakest areas. Predict there will be a hard binomial question and/or a Projectile question for Q14. Pretty disappointed about the lack of Circle Geometry in this year's 4...

    Modern History Essay Predictions

    I think historical context means the background of the personality. E.G. For Trotsky his political ideologies of enforcing socialism in one country were highly influenced from his political discontentment with the Tsar's autocratic rule. He was also educated by the Spentzers and was exposed to...

    MX2 Exam Thoughts

    Don't worry guys it was definitely harder than last year's paper. Hoping for a mark that can be aligned to 85 (don't think I got the E4 haha). I found this better than the trials though surprisingly. I'm sure EVERYONE on here went great!

    Question 16 Predictions??

    Maybe Circle Geometry (PLEASE!) or Conics? As I have heard those two topics are being taken out of the new syllabus? Not too sure on this one...

    How are you studying for the exam?

    Working on the harder questions now and my weak areas (pretty much Volumes and Harder Mechanics). Aiming for a solid E3 as a final mark (not too confident after the Trials but hopefully it won't be as horrible haha). Good luck everyone!

    Didn't see the quote in creative writing stimulus

    Mmm not too sure. Keep in mind the HSC markers do want to give you marks for your creative, so I'm sure you will get a decent mark. It will probably just won't get you into that 13-15 range. Keep in mind that that is only 15/105 marks - I know it is very stressful, we are all in the same boat as...

    HSC Standard/Advanced Paper 1 Exam Thoughts

    Mine would have to be short answers not actually being short. Hahaha! :haha: Happy I finished in time.

    English Standard Paper 2 [Discussion/Thoughts]

    Module A - I was happy with the question, (did Distinctive Voices) hoping for a 18+/20. Module B - I think I stuffed this one up. We had to do Wilfred Owen and a lot of people in my grade were stumped. But yeah I would be lucky if I get 17 maximum haha. Module C - Story of Tom Brennan, pretty...

    Congratulations to you both it seems like you both smashed it!

    HSC Standard/Advanced Paper 1 Exam Thoughts

    Comprehension: Not too bad, once I read through the texts I was like 'Okay I can do this' because the questions freaked me out at first. Other than that it went pretty okay. Creative: The quote was good to adapt into my creative, so I'm cool with that section, however, creative is usually my...

    Study

    ^ What SupR said was pretty spot on. If you have to finish off notes for one particular module (E.G. Business Studies you just need to finish off Human Resource Strategies) you can use the time now to finalise, as it will only take a few hours maximum. But if you don't have any, get someone's...

    Trials Marks/Reflection Thread

    Don't worry I feel the exact same way. My Maths teacher said it was a very difficult trial paper this year, so far from what I know my class passed (apparently we were extremely close to each other in terms of ranks and marks for this exam) which is good, but that Trial was really crazy. Don't...

    Will I be able to get an ATAR of 65?

    Those marks are really good! Keep up the work and you'll definitely achieve 65 (definitely above 65).

    Should I drop 4 unit: URGENT

    Thanks for the responses. It turns out I did better than I thought (we received our marks back today), but thanks for the encouragement and advice. I'll continue it. : )
