    Case Studies in Extended Response?

    I was contemplating doing that for my workplace - an Italian restaurant. =) Would be pretty cool...and would be appropriate in conjunction with Dominos! Thanks for reminding me of the idea. ^^

    i hate this subject

    Wooooo! Agreed!

    What is everyone doing to study today

    I just did some practice Multiple Choice on the BoardOS website. After this short break of mine I'm gonna go over my Case Study, notes and the syllabus. I'm nervous for the entire exam! > < Hopefully I do MUCH better in Section II...and get a few more marks in the last two sections.

    Is anyone using already prepared essays?

    The only thing I'm preparing for is the Writing Task in the English exam on Friday. I did (surprisingly) well in the Trials for all the essays so I'll use those responses in conjunction with my Trial study notes for revision.

    What's your job and how much you earn?

    Age: 18 Job: Waitress Pay (approx.): $12/h weekdays, $15/h Saturdays, $18/h Sundays. So happy I'm 18 now. =)

    Sleeping pattern

    Wow, I could never do an all-nighter. I would be sleeping at 9:30pm and getting up at 5:30am for my exams usually. I guess it works for me. Each to their own?

    08 HSC Students - Are you 18 yet or not?

    18 already. But my 18th was the weekend before Trials! Totally sucked. > <

    Case Studies in Extended Response?

    Hahaha, fair enough. Thanks for clarifying that for me. ^^ No way am I aiming that high...and LOL at your sarcasm. ;P

    Case Studies in Extended Response?

    Ugh, you know...my teacher has dedicated numerous lessons to actually make up a case study as a class that covers ALL syllabus points whilst using information from an existing one. So for example, using a Coca Cola case study but changing the name to something like Oz Cola (example ONLY: I...

    Anyone Else Studying Less Closer To the HSC

    =P Nicely put. Same here. > < Was meant to give up the entire internet today but nope! I'm here now! But no other sites or MSN. =) I'm quite proud so far~ Anyways, to all those who say they work better under pressure, I agree. Just as long as there are people around me that aren't...

    eng adv: Creative composition

    Hahaha, I had the same experience for my half-yearly exams. Did so bad in the Writing Task because I didn't prepare anything. I went for the Writing Task session during Sydney West Lectures and I was inspired so much! I got 14/15 in my Trials after that. Aiming for 15 this time! =P We were...

    2 Major works = big mistake?

    I know 2 people in my grade doing 3 Major Works each. But you say you're being 'peer pressured' to do 4 Unit English? By who exactly? Because if that's the reason, I wouldn't do it. There's no point doing something somebody else is forcing you to. Do what you really think you do well in...

    CSSA Mathematics Advanced Paper

    Such an ugly paper... I wonder how I'll do? I'll be lucky to scrape a pass. >_>

    Visual Arts? Is it worth it?

    Hehehe, practical is no bludge. Theory's like what everyone else has said, a load of BSing. =D I'm good at that. XD Hahaha, I still remember back during the first week of Year 11 when about 5-10 people dropped. Yes, within that week. ;P

    What would be the best End-Of-HSC anthem?

    Yeah, that was the first song that came to mind. I have always loved it... I'm pretty sure my school would be ecstatic (as well as emotional) if they heard this at our Grad Ball. =)

    Geometry - Questions involving proofs

    Yeah, I think I just probably need to think harder. I'm not much of a 'strategic thinker' in general. =P Video games on the other hand... =) Anyways, thanks for the advice. Much appreciated.

    Assessment Tasks on one day

    I hate this situation but it's inevitable. I've had 2-3 assessments due/to complete in one day back in Year 9 and 10. I have learnt from this that prioritising is VITAL.

    does ANYBODY enjoy their text for english?

    I've enjoyed reading Brave New World. Blade Runner's just...meh. I think that's maybe why I tend to put an extra 5% of discussion about BNW in my responses as opposed to BR. XD King Lear wasn't too bad, either. Frontline's pretty strange, but I suppose it really hits the nail on what the...

    Wolfmother have split

    Uh...care to explain why? Yeah, I agree. Uncalled for. Totally. o_o

    Visual Arts? Is it worth it?

    It is mainly time consuming (in terms of practical work) outside of school, not inside. If you decide to continue it in Year 12, you will have to commit yourself to creating a Major Work. That itself requires time and patience. Also remember it's a balance of theory and prac. work. You'll...
