    Turning a short story into a speech

    I'm guessing most people probably have a short story down pat and now with the BOS cracking down on memorised responses it seems logical that they make the creative writing a speech. If so, what do you think is the best way of turning my short story into a speech? (p.s i'm not going to ditch my...

    Hamlet will be the death of me

    They asked "anything" last year so IMO its unlikely they will do it again. Most likely just "To what extent are (insert two themes) relevant towards your understanding of hamlet" to which you should be able to mould a prepared response around.

    Creative Writing?

    Mine is about 750 words, still managed to get 15/15 for trials. Maybe it was marked easier than the HSC, although i definitely think its quality>quantity for the creative.

    Reading and Writing - Analytical help

    In the reading and writing section, i always seem to find the 3-5 mark questions difficult because instead of just 'identifying' and 'explaining', you should be saying 'why' the composers chose these techniques etc. Does anyone have any sort of generic example of analysis to give me an idea? or...

    Hard Multiple choice question

    I'm not very good at economics so i'm probably wrong but, my method of doing this question would be: Food = 110 - 100 x 0.3 (CPI weighting as a decimal) Health = 130 -100 x 0.1 Housing = 125 - 100 x 0.15 Clothing = 120 - 100 x 0.2 and when you do the calculations, clothing comes out to...

    How long should a band 6 generally be?

    Exemplar's are much better than just band 6s, you could probably get a band 6 just by writing 6-7 pages if your content is good.
