haw, mad! I did Eusebius' version of the fire of Rome and looked into how everyone thinks Nero persecuted the Christians as scapegoats after it, or so says Tacitus. Pretty coo, turns out Tacitus is really the only mentions who mentions such a thing, yet everyone takes it as fact. Started off...

heeheeheehee

Yep it sure was a pretty suave, open-ended essay. Still that proved no obstacle, and I still managed to write quite a crappy jumbled one. Meh, they'll be kind to me...maybe........no................who am I kidding. :)

So which question did you do first... aaand, did you run out of time cos you got bogged down in one?

Well, we did spec.fic and mine was about the world overheating - some thought the sun was expanding millions of years too early, but one scientist dude thought it was just a "solar radiation mega-storm" (*shudders at corny sci fi language*). And he has a special blue elixir that, when released...

*gasps* Did you have that sentence planned or are you just good?! With all those 'big' words you'd do great at history extension.

Lucky cos my prepared creative thing just so happened to fit the quote exactly - woot! But I think my essay made up for any good marks I mightve got, it was pretty... well, pretty yuk. So, how much did you all write on your supplementary stuff eh? I began to run outta time so my poor little...

Thanks theVirus. I'm glad you think it's possible. neway, guess I'd better go do what you said now and stop getting stuck on these fandangled forum things :)

I'm in country NSW Most years only a few if any ppl do 4u 2 ppl in my class this year - other guy got 37% (& he's not stupid either) Have been confident (& thought I was okay) up to now, though I may not have done enough work Understanding 4u pretty good, tho am so busy that harder Q's don't...

Here's a question for you all: is it possible that my trial exam was the hardest ever written (I got 31%!!) or did I just not do enough work? In the tests during the year I went heaps better, tho I do have a lot of work to do over the next few days. The paper looked like an encyclopedia it was...

hmmmm... how much basic physics understanding? You see, I don't do physics. I guess that's the end of me, huh?

My lack of organisation has left me with very little knowledge (or at least practise) of mechanics. Does anyone have some tips to help poor cramming little me?

Woot! That's what I figured. Thanks. (either it's a good thing and we get it right, or a bad thing and we both fail - oh weel :)

Are there different ways of testing for carbohydrates (forensics Q32c)? Like, do school labs use different techniques to forensic labs? I waffled my way through this part. Metal ions were easier to talk about tho.

I do not recall seeing anything like this before. I guessed C. What was the real answer?

I knew most stuff except some forensic and the atmosphere stuff. I missed doing that in class and so I was kinda hoping it the exam writers overlooked it. Atmosphere practically made up half the paper! Oh well, bluffing should get me at least half marks...

Oops. I put A cos I forgot there was only 0.6g of propanol. Noooo! Reading the question wrong is one of my strong points.

Did the all-night/morning marathon pay off in the exam? Or did you fall asleep?

Xayma man, you save my life

Hehehe. Well, I feel a little better that 2 or 3 people are in the same boat. It's not a very nice boat, but it sure makes life interesting.
