Well that reflects the idiocy of the system. You're literally saying you don't need to be good at the subject to do well, which is sadly true. That's just fucking ridiculous.

Why would you bother memorising an essay word for word and then not writing out that essay on the day? I don't understand why you would go to all that effort. If you're going to adapt it, you might as well save yourself some time and say "Okay, here's 3 topics I can talk about and here's some...

I know people that do. What are you defining as a memorised essay?

Maybe so, but everyone I know that knows what they're talking about doesn't memorise their essays. Most of my english class memorises their essays and they themselves admit they have no clue what they're talking about.

Hardly. I've actually got something out of the subject (well, not really, but I would've if the subject wasn't total BS), whereas you've learnt nothing. There's also the possibility that I'll beat you anyway. There's a difference between memorising and essay and knowing points that you can...

Nah, I've got no hope of duxing. I lost all motivation before trials and barely managed to get through them. Everyone else has been studying hard out since then and I've been sitting around drinking.

Furthermore, what happens when your memorised essay doesn't fit the question whatsoever. You're fucked. I, on the other hand, am completely fine. What if they specify writing a speech or a feature article? Again, you're fucked and I look incredible because I actually know what I'm talking about...

I'm perfectly capable of memorising an essay. I just have the decency to place value in my education and not reduce it to a competition to see who can memorise stuff the best.

Re: Tomorrow morning Eat breakfast, have a wank, snort some coke (because according to SMH, that's what everyone's doing to help them study -.-), maybe hit up the gym. You serious? m8.

I'm planning on downing a bottle of cough syrup at about 12.30 - Hallucinate on the DXM and use that as inspiration to write a creative. Dickheads in my grade tried that in the half yearly. Except they didn't use a pain reliever - they used some cream that was basically a mild anaesthetic...

People who memorise are fuckwits IMO. They're completely missing the point of their education - if they're good at english they should be able to write a decent essay on the spot.

Surely it's too late to be worrying about this.

Aiming for 80/105 (Which I got for trials). I'll be happy with 75+ though.

Woof.

Indeed :D

English notes. I mean sure, you can have them if you want, but as far as I can see the only thing they're useful for is firewood :p

Cannot wait to burn my notes.

I wonder why? :s

Just improvise for a feature article. Can't be that hard. Just talk about cyber bullying or something.

LEL!!!!!1!!!eleven!!!! COMEDY GOLD! xD Remember, standard kids have to sit this too.
