    English Advanced Paper 2 [Discussion/Thoughts]

    For Metropolis how did people incorporate the still? I just used it for 3/4 of my first paragraph and talked about the destruction of corporeal agency as robot Maria seduces the modernist individual.... Did anyone go with a gender approach? Would have been interesting

    English Advanced Paper 2 [Discussion/Thoughts]

    Very pleased- questions were all standard for me. Only interesting bit was Mod B for Hamlet- about empathy. I just talked about the form of the soliloquies and how they enable the audience to view into Hamlet’s mind and deeply connect with his moral paralysis etc

    HSC Standard/Advanced Paper 1 Exam Thoughts

    Yeah I also wrote about how he rediscovers when he writes in the letters to his mother and father- I think this qualifies because it’s a rediscovery. But for majority of text no rediscovery

    Look at Venezuela and honestly tell me you can make the poor richer by making the richer poorer. Same goes for education

    HSC X1 2018 Predictions

    Predictions for our paper? I'm thinking it will be hard since last year was so easy but maybe not since they are trying to encourage people into STEM...

    Amount of Work/study

    Been putting a fair amount in. Anywhere from 7-10 hours a day. Hoping for upwards of 99.7 but would be happy with mid 99s
