No global?? Hey, i thought the exam was pretty straight forward. But i wish exam writters would use commas in there questions. I think i spent half my time decoding the questions due to all the grammatical errors People are saying that there were no global questions. But wasnt the whole...

Hated this exam so much. The creative writting totally threw me, i made some crap story up on the spot. It was such a random picture, Board seriously screwed us. Essay equally bad, again just crapped on, but even more so then the first question. I had no idea what the question was asking? i...

Not that it matters, because we you will never have to do one of those questions again, but for those visual students. Draw a circle (pretending that is the first catch, i.e 50 roos), the draw a second circle which slightly overlaps the first, this circle represents the 2nd cath (i.e 200...

I spent all of year 11 in 2 unit averaging 35%, finally convinced the head teacher of maths to let me drop. Started year12 general in July, and had no probs since. Seriously, the difference between the 2unit and general is unbelievable! two totally different subjects as far as im concerned

- Supervisors who read over your shoulder! seriously, nothing is more distracting then someone who is standing there reading every word you write! - Having a school that is smack bam between a train track and a construction site

actually, interpretations arn't what the syllabus is all about. Read it. It specifically says that you need to do a "close study of texts... through analysing its construction, content and language" sound familliar??? not that it matters

i did king lear - loved it!!!! was so lucky. My tutor pointed out that they have never asked a question on the value of the text (ie what the hell is so good about it) so it was all i studied that. Had no clue bout my interpretations. SO LUCKY they didnt ask for them!

Just a question. Is our study of JFk a historical enquiry or a character study?????

Apparently any teacher has the power to re-sit ANY assessment task if they do not feel it accurately portrays the mark/rank of the student/s. There is only three is our class, and the exam totally screwed all our ranks. The girl who has been coming last the whole year (cos she NEVER comes to...

Congrats everyone :)

How did everyone go in their trial????? I got 89% all up - screwed my indochina question becasue i didnt have any historians. Can anyone tell me if you need the Australian perspective of the Veitman war??? (the second one!), the syllabus says yes but my HSC marker Teacher says no???????

Hello, was just wondering how everyone went in their trials????? I got 22/25 for the "what is history" question and 23/25 for the JFK xxx

our class had to re-do our trial! none of us recieved more then 9/25 for the creative question - apparently we totally missed the point! hopefully round two will provide less embarrassing results

Congrats Katie..... i am a true believer that originality = gold in this subject, take risks, trust yourself and above all have fun with it all. Well done again, your obviously a talented writter....
