The one exam I definatley agree with is biology. I was actually peeved about that. I don't think you can understand what this dude is sayng until you do that biology exam. I studied so hard and got in there, and was like "waaahhh?" The questions were incredibly general and not specific. I was...
Too be honest I thought it was by Bernard, and am feeling a little stupid that I didn't pick up on it being John. Regardless, I never identified who said it, I just refered to it in my essay. And I did read the book. I prepared by extracting techniques out of the movie and book, rather than just...
Re: How was modern Exam?
Wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. The only question that really got me was Arab-Israeli, bleh. My worst topic.
I linked the "history is for winners" question to Winston Churchill; you know his line about how "winners write the history." I thought i was...
If it's the end of an exam, but I still have exams to go, then I usually feel the after exam high for around two hours. After that I start to worry about the nest one. Buuut if it's the end of exams altogether (November 6th here I come!), then it is just pure joy, with no thought towards the...
I'm doing:
-WW1
-Germany 1918-1939
-Leni Riefenstahl
-Arab Israeli Conflict
Overall Arab-Israeli conflict is my worst, by a mile. Leni Riefesnstahl + WW1 is my best and Germany falls into the middle. Haven't really started memorising yet, only got notes done. Ahhhh. SO over it all.
I'm...
Wrote out and finalised my King Lear essay + additional notes = 1 hr or so.
Did 3 chapter reviews for General Maths = 2 hrs, surprisingly.
Codensed 5 pages of Biology notes into 3 1/2 pages + studied one page = 1 hr 1/2.
Plan on finishing Biology study, as well as continueing with Modern...
Oh, and notes:
- Finished Biology notes, halfway through studying first topic.
- Finished maths notes, now doing chapter reviews and plan on doing past papers.
- One more english essay to do; plan on adapting them to past papers and then memorising.
- A quarter way through Modern History.
-...
I've looked at various past papers, and I think that when it comes down to it the question is going to concentrate on the fundamental ideas, such as themes, techniques, quotes etc in the text/s you have studied. The question might change, but the topic is still the same, and it is your ability...
Right now I'm really considering Speech Pathology at USYD, which needs a UAI of 87.45. But that could change. I think I may just apply to a large number courses and see what my UAI ends up being.
Subjects: English Advanced, General Maths, Biology, Visual Arts, Modern History, Extension...
