I am fine for all sections except for one. SHELTER. Bloody worst topic. 3/4 of my study is searching for stuff to write about because there's hardly any notes in textbooks, online. Not to mention there have hardly been any significant cases in recent years, so 90% of my evidence is just media...

Oh thank fucking god!! I remembered my two main points (connections) were about Richard's power and ambition and also his human frailty and evilness. Massive relief there...

OH CRAP!! I do Richard III and LFR for Mod A. This is the question: In what ways is your appreciation of both texts enhanced by a comparative study of authority in King Richard III and Looking for Richard. This is how I read the question: In what ways is your appreciation of both texts...

Mod A: Beautiful, felt really well writing out my response Mod B: ... ... time and place... .. ..resilience... .. .. ?? ?? ?? ??? WTFFFFFFFFFFFF!!!!!!!!!! I DIDNT UNDERSTAND AN F-ING WORD I WROTE! GAH!!!!!! Mod C: Awesome! Disagreed the shit outa that statement

Apologies if I scared anybody with this post, I made a mistake in thinking this was actually an assessable dot point of the rubric. Basically, this dot point is asking for a personal response from the audience, for instance, if you're reading 'Diary of a Young Girl' by Anne Frank (for...

I'm curious... do markers react differently to an essay that has a plan and one without a plan? E.g. Do they think... "Oh, I see what that student's trying to do... Good ideas, but terrible expression" as opposed to one without saying "I'm not quite sure what this person is trying to say... they...

Just a simple thread for the use of rough plans for essays during exam conditions. Yes or no? In some situations? And maybe just some simple reasons why. For instance, I believe essay plans are a good thing to include for things such as the belonging essay and creative writing (technically...

Lol I just deleted mine. Personally, I just think FB is dead, all I ever saw on my newsfeed were 13 y.o. girls posing thinking they were sexy (obviously deluded), vine videos (not bad, but so goddamn repetitive) and my favourite band updates (these were cool, but 90% of the time didn't concern...

Sweet... in that case I guess I should practice writing 1000 word essays. Cheers guys.

Wow, Congrats, really well done! My only question is how did you have so much spare time? I will admit I myself dawdled a bit on SA (especially for Jewish death and mourning). But 1 hour each is insane. It'd be great to know how you did it... o.O

As many SOR I and II students know, the religion exam demonstrates on the front page that the student are expected to allocate 35 minutes to the essay section. 35 minutes for a 20 mark question... (Not sure the logic behind that) Anyway I've been sending my teachers practice essays. The...

yes, of course you will +96

Yes, but be careful of English, that has the potential to jeopardise it if you have a bad external

I can at least safely say AoS is easy, perhaps the most redeeming part of the English HSC syllabus as it AT LEAST requires students to convey simple ideas using sophisticated language. But the modules are literary diarrhea. There is absolutely ZERO consistency in how these 40 minute essays are...

OMG THIS. Best analogy ever!!

Mid 90s

Last year your school ranked 76. From these ranks, I predict ~84. Physics, Bio - Good, possibe b6's. Math, Spanish - Not bad, could do a bit better, I'd say b5's English (Std.) - Not good, you should aim to improve in this a lot for externals and is anchoring a potential 89-90 ATAR. All the best!

Haha! Funny story at our school was that a kid in Standard English cried during the exam because he was completely stumped by the CSSA creative writing stimulus (the fish jumping out of the bowl and the map and compass). I can see the same thing happening if BoS tries to have some 'fun' with...

I think essentially what this statement is asking for is an evaluation as to whether feelings of exclusion can have a positive effect and bring about new possibilities for individuals searching for a sense of belonging. 90% of candidates will agree and give examples from their prescribed and...
