    Ancient History exam too long?

    less than one? *raises eyebrow* my exam had about... 24 people (our class plus some randoms from a tiny school nearby)? and at the end there were probs 6 left... i finished with 40 minutes to go, which included some rests between sections and leisurely planning of essays. but i stayed...

    Section I - Core (Pompeii and Herculaneum)

    i hate p&h, it bores me to tears. but i did everything pretty well except the last question. i didnt really get to my point properly. ha i need more space for 10 marks. but meh. its over!! and i was lucky in the amphitheatre, i did a massive assignment on it in term 4. hoorah!

    Section III - Personalities

    good old hatty. haha. i did pretty well in the amun question, thats easy, and fair in the foreign policy one. i hope i made sense ha. for some reason i remember egypt stuff so much better than p&h or minoans... its so weird.

    Section II - Societies

    minoans. they were ok, but i had a bit of trouble with the features of the frescoes... we had the exact same question in my trial, and i screwed it up then too. you'd think i would have learned my lesson! but the 12 marker was good.

    Section IV - Historical Periods

    i did new kingdom to death of thut IV pretty good, egypt is my favourite. i did the building program one, because i couldnt think how anyone would write 25 marks worth of stuff just on the warrior pharaoh image... shrug. but i couldnt remember what a few of the pharaohs built so i guessed...

    General Thoughts - Ancient History

    yeah, the p&h questions were too specific, esp streetscape and amphitheatre. i was so lucky, at thestart of this year we each had to pick something from p or h and do a powerpoint and epic speech on it, and i picked the amphitheatre. sooooo happy! and the warrior pharaoh question in new...

    Exam Superstitions??

    i did today for ancient! i dont know why, ancient is always easy, i actually like it ha. and my stomach made noises the entire three hours, it was pretty embarassing... i wasnt even hungry? though i woke up this morning feeling like i was going to chuck :( but i dont have any superstitions. oh...

    What is so good about being a virgin?

    in short, totally. what they said. why cant people who arent married but have been together for years be in a trusting relationship? none of my friends want to get married. NONE. because they see it as a piece of paper, or a religious thing of which they are no part of. ive had sex with my...

    your opinions on experimenting with drugs.. while on schoolies?

    Sonyalee, where abouts are you from? im just curious, because i live in northern nsw (pretty much qld), and you seem to be from this vague area. shrug. pretty much my entire town is into drugs. mainly ganja, we're between byron, mullum and nimbin lol. but yeah, dont experiment with the harder...

    Where is everyone going for schoolies?

    stradbroke for a week. i live pretty much on the gold coast, so me and all my friends have been to schoolies for the past couple years there anyway. but we'll probably end up going up there for a night or few anyway.

    So uh...

    exactly. never ever ever ever again. i think im going to have a party. maths was the bane of my existence. i went from being top in 3 unit in year 11 to struggling with 2 unit - that should show how much maths killed me. p.s. NO MATHS!! p.p.s. lol. no need for negativity, rejoice in its...

    What do u think u got?

    ha me too, with the whole integrating a log thing. i know exactly what i had to do, my friend told me as soon as we got outside, and i was just like, dammit. i left out 15 marks... i just hope i get in the 80s ha.

    workload

    i did barely any work (nor was i given any) in term 4. a bit more in term 1. then a shitload in term 2 and 3. but my school is full of lazy bastards of teachers, who didnt give us assessment tasks til a term or two after they were meant to.
  16. M

    Instead of how many pages, how many words did you write?

    probs... 2000-2500. not really sure. a booklet for for is about 1000 words, give or take 100 or so. and i had 21 pages. so yeah.

    Transformation: RAGAD and Hamlet!

    surely you aren't serious?? the question was way too specific, there are so many themes and values that can be talked about, and they picked ONE. what's with exam questions being so specific? kinda limits our essay-age. but at least they picked destiny/fate etc and not like, the role of The...

    Ummm, does anyone realise English is over for good?

    no more english is excellent... ahaha hoorah. but i still have ancient which has essays, but at least theyre full of fact and not bullshit, and drama which is 2 essays :( which are even worse than english essays. the same style, but even more crap.
  20. M

    how many pages per section?

    ...count them when times up?? or note how many pages you didnt write on and go from there? shrug. 7 for Hamlet and R+G, 6 for Citizen Lame (did anyone else find it hard to write an essay ENTIRELY on techniques?), and 8 for ted spews. ive got medium handwriting probably... it gets bigger the...
