Did assessment today on King Lear. Think it went ok. I dont knoww. ou can;t really tell in English! Got PE back today too: 97% :) so i'm happy with that.

Lol. I actually agree with you bassistx. There are a lot of people who simply shouldn't be doing Advanced. Then again, the poor kid was just looking for clarification :p

I second that. lol. You write like me :)

Good job!

lol :o I really should check the dates before i post.

Hey, i did Bismarck last year. PM me if you want notes/essays or help with anything.

Re: IMPORTANT: The correct answers to commonly asked questions- read before you post. Yep, this is true also. Strictly speaking, you can't actually tell which subjects will be 'capped' in the future, because scaling changes from year to year. However, as me121 pointed out, because certain...

Re: IMPORTANT: The correct answers to commonly asked questions- read before you post. Yes, this is true, and undertaking many subjects which are traditionally capped can affect your UAI negatively. However, what i was trying to clarify is that taking capped subjects does not automatically...

The main things I've learnt are important with modern essays *Being succict. As you said, its not English. They don't want waffle. They don't want fancy words. They want a clear, fluent argument that answers the question. *Use sources ALWAYS. If you want band 5/6, you need to go beyond...

Hey, I'm doing syllabus notes for PDHPE, and one of the dot points is 'discern the difference between anxiety and arousal in terms of their effect on performance.' Ok. So i know that anxiety is essentially a psychological process an arousal is a physiological process, but in terms of their...

Lol I remember doing JFK. If anyone wants notes/essays PM me. We get LOADS of photocopies for modern, and I'm pretty darn sure my teacher's photocopied 'more than 10%' of the textbooks :p . Like Kujah, I also have heaps of textbooks per module. I have 4 for Germany, for example.

Hmm I do Modern. What helps me with modern is just reading the textbook and trying to actually understand it all rather than memorise it, though I would agree there are plenty of dates to learn. I think maybe its just your exam technique: do you have time management issues or anything?

Re: IMPORTANT: The correct answers to commonly asked questions- read before you post. Ok, I correct myself :rolleyes: : If you want reliable information on scaling and the UAI and want the most direct link, go to the UAC site provided by me121.

Re: IMPORTANT: The correct answers to commonly asked questions- read before you post. I am fairly sure you can get a UAI of 100.00 with any combination of subjects, if not very close. No, it doesn't, but it has reliable links to comprehensive and correct explanations on scaling and the...

Re: IMPORTANT: The correct answers to commonly asked questions- read before you post. True. Forgot to mention that's a reliable source as well.

That's not insane for an hour of regurgitation. Anyway, its quality not quantity. Be succinct. Don't digress. Answer the question on the paper, not the one you memorised an essay for. These are more valuable things to consider.

Your obviously working hard, but if your not getting the results you want, maybe you need to reevaluate your study techniques. Do you study productively? Are you understanding what's expected in each assessment? Are you understanding the content, or just memorising it? etc etc.

Note: This is an old post, and some of the information it contains may be out of date. FAQ: The correct answers to commonly asked questions- read before you post. So ok, I've noticed that the same questions were coming up again and again, and I'm stupendously bored. Hence, I've devised an FAQ...

qft X 100. I'm so over these 'estimate my UAI plz' posts: Get consistantly good marks/ ranks and you'll get a good UAI, get consistantly shit marks/ranks and you'll get a shit UAI. Its not that hard to comprehend.
