    Visual Arts Exam Thoughts

    Exam was pretty good, Question 1 a bit difficult, but the rest of short answer was fine. I did Question 7, something about art making the world more humane or some shit, fit well with a lot of the politically-motivated artwork I studied lmao

    Breaking up during HSC exams

    Update: I'm having a conversation about whether we still wanna keep the relationship going on Monday after my visual arts exam, bc then i have a week break until modern so it won't be like super impacting. Thank you everyone for the replies, it really means a lot hahaha :)

    Breaking up during HSC exams

    I guess I could. They really wouldn't take it well (like visibly upset) but tbh it would give me some peace of mind, as bad as it sounds.

    Breaking up during HSC exams

    Is it a good idea to do this? In a relationship and I want out. It feels like such an effort to talk to my s/o at the moment because I have my exams to study for, and I don't really know if I like them that much anyways. They keep pressuring me into calling them on the phone even though I'm...

    Are BOWs scaled the same way as exams?

    Think of your BOW as part of your HSC exam, along with the theory exam. Each is worth 50%, so they add to make 100%. So, if someone scores higher than you in VA, you will get their mark as your assessment mark, and then your own result in the VA exam and the BOW will be your exam mark. These...

    HSC Standard/Advanced Paper 1 Exam Thoughts

    Really fkn big. About 1-4 words per line. It's still mostly legible, just a pain in the ass to deal with all the booklets on such a small desk.

    HSC Standard/Advanced Paper 1 Exam Thoughts

    Short answer: I did as best as I could do. The poem about the antarctic ship was a bit ridiculous, but nonetheless, the questions were pretty much what i was expecting. Weird how they asked us for two texts in a four marker though :/ Creative: Went great, had two different perspectives in my...

    2018ers Chit-Chat Thread

    Hey guys, if i have french on the 7th november and geography on the 8th november, is it a valid and good idea to leave them until I've finished english and visual arts, meaning I would start studying french and geo on the 22nd of october and until the 8th november? I would probably study really...

    Amount of Work/study

    I'm currently doing about 6-10 hrs a day, and I'm hoping for an atar over 99.5. I'm just trying to give as much effort before its all over.

    Module B Yeats ?!

    Modernist, very existential in nature. Much of Yeats's romantic feelings are absent from this poem, as he is essentially questioning the point of life, due to the futility of war and political upheaval. (Just my opinion)

    USA National Studies

    This dot point always messes with me so I tend to ignore it lol. A few examples I can think of include: - Isolationist senators (a domestic pressure) impacting on the US' decision to not join the World Court in 1923, 1926, and 1935, even though the population majority wanted it. - Rejection...

    I've more done just practice questions and practice essays for English and Visual Arts so far (theyre my first exams), not so much papers in their entirety. I did a Paper 2 for practice yesterday tho lol. I'm more just doing revision though, bc I kinda understand how to answer the questions...

    Changing prescribed text for AOS

    I would advise against, because the courses (advanced and standard) stipulate that you need to have studied at least one of each prescribed text type (like poetry, prose fiction, drama, Shakespeare, etc). If you change your prescribed text for AOS, then it will likely look like you have studied...

    Hey guys just wondering if you guys are going for any scholarships, and if so, which ones/types (like academic, leadership, sport)? Idk if most people apply for scholarships. I'm going for the academic ones down at Monash (Scholarship for Excellence) that don't need an application, bc I'm too...

    is my goal achievable?

    Yes personally I think you can hit low 90's, its just as long as you study very hard for the external exams :)

    Is a 99 ATAR possible at this point?

    Sorry, I post these types of things a lot but it's hard to know where I'm going and where I need to be :/ Was just wondering if a 99 ATAR was possible in relation to my internal ranks and trial marks (which aren't a perfect indicator I know, but it's probably the best way to tell idk)...
