    Why do we have to memorise quotes?

    It's childish because life - and especially the HSC isn't fair. To complain about something that's still inevitable and unable to change is completely pointless, there have already been numerous forums discussing about it and venting their anger towards the subject. Also, I'm pretty sure...

    Is Work Experience only limited in Year 10?

    I never got the opportunity to work experience because my school is an ass and never publicised this BEAUTIFUL OPPORTUNITY to me when I was in Year 10. However, I was considering getting into Journalism next year in University and I was thinking perhaps I can nudge my career advisor to score me...

    Why do we have to memorise quotes?

    If you can't remember something as simple as quotes, when you have to memorise body paragraphs for four different essays - then you shouldn't even be concerned that it'll be detrimental to your final mark... It's similar to maths in the aspect that you choose a quote and manipulate it to fit...

    Do trials get sent to the marking center to be marked?

    This morning is the second day of trials for me, and I had two subjects today: Paper 2 and Biology. I walked into the hall to take my Paper 2, and I was slightly late because of traffic so everyone was sitting down, and the teachers were giving me a dirty for being late. I sat down, looked at my...

    Is it too late to change subjects now? :/

    Whaaaaaaaaaat? Is that possible? To change their subjects right before the HSC in year 12? Aren't we suppose to complete a required amount of hours in a subject before moving on to HSC

    Is this justified to lose a mark?

    I recently got my biology test back and I did pretty poor, I got around 74%. However, I lost two marks which I believe shouldn't be?? One of the questions asked to 'tabulate the data of the following experiment' My table was complete, and the information was correct because the teacher...

    How to know when it's going well?

    I'm writing a critical response and it's been going well, however I started to read one of those Young Writers books and I feel like i've reached an impasse. Obviously the works within the Young Writers books are all good, however I feel as I'm not too entirely sure whether my critical response...

    Show not tell/creative writing thread

    If you could give a basic outline of your creative that'll be a little helpful, but other than that, Here's my two cents: Your main character's age will reveal itself through it's actions and speech ex. Being more immature, stubborn, ambitious and a little optimistic. I don't think you need to...

    studying pattern

    I used the pomodoro technique when I was doing my major work draft, basically it requires a timer and you time yourself for 30 minutes and rewarding yourself with 10-15 minutes (similar to what WLL was talking about) However, I adjusted to suit my own self (45mins - 20min break)

    Do prelim sciences affect HSC?

    Biology: Literally the only thing that carried over was osmosis and diffusion, which you relearn again.
