I'm in the same boat as you, sister!! Jesus uSyd, you give me my Law stuff a good week ago, but still rotting to death waiting for English and Gov.... Btw, I'm also doing ENGL1026 and GOVT1105 :)

99.50 and a state rank. I'm overwhelmed.

WHY COMPUTER GAMES ARE GOOD: - Promotes problem solving, creativity, critical thinking and rational decision-making - Heightens mental agility (search up some stats about how it increases intelligence in adolescents, I'm pretty sure there were a couple of academic articles here and there) -...

That's amazing! Urgh, I've signed up but my word count is at zero. I'm going to pump out some writing tonight, but the next few days are super busy and then I'm going overseas...will try my best to keep up hahaha. What's your username?

Sadly, I can relate. *slowly crawls into a hole and dies*

Indeed! I've attempted writing longform previously, but that was in the embarrassing fanfiction days....

If you feel like you have a handle on things and can maintain that drive, then yes, a tutor wouldn't be much help. Just remember that although your dad may be amazing at physics, it doesn't necessarily correlate to being amazing at HSC physics (let alone teaching). HSC physics requires a whole...

I did bio in year 11...my teacher was utter shit. We banded a group of students together to complain, but the principal didn't really care. So I dropped it. It really depends on what kind of person you are. If you can manage to stay self-motivated, then yeah talk to state rankers, copy their...

It really depends on how your cohort does?? Especially for English. How do you think you went in your HSC exams?

I find the current English syllabus maddening. It completely strips away any semblance of literary appreciation the student may have once had and replaces it with syllabus mumbo-jumbo and rubric vomit. The entire concept of "proving" profound, deeply philosophical insights with a line of poetry...

Off the top of my head... Kafka on the Shore - Haruki Murakami (think this will link well with LoP) Five Bells - Gail Jones The Road - Cormac McCarthy Big World - Tim Winton The Trial - Franz Kafka The God of Small Things - Arundhati Roy The Inheritance of Loss - Kiran Desai ...also...

I watched Watchmen. It was so, SO good. If you want a grittier, darker, dystopic-styled Avengers, go see it.

My teacher actually strongly recommended Boyhood as a related text. But it all depends on how it fits in with your prescribed. I did the Tempest and chose Birdman, which had excellent thematic connections (metafictionality, theatre, illusion, forgiveness etc) that enabled the two texts to work...
