Just wondering, is it compulsory to do Ex 1 in Year 12 at SBHS?

I don't think it would be ... but most people probably can't be bothered dropping.

These two guys that go there told me it is because of the "shit" results SBHS gets in English compared to what they get in Mathematics in the HSC.

But how can forcing them to do a harder level make them better. If they were anything like my school, if you get crap results, they'll just shove more people into the lowest levels so they ripp it. Like the amount of capable student who get shoved into standard at my school is ridiculous.

Yeah, me too. That's the main reason I chose Extension 1 - so I could do the creative writing in Ext 2.

Is it true that literally everyone does Extension English there?

 

[marcquelle]

really love english and my school has always said that i should be an english teacher or a teacher. But i just see EE2 as going to be fun

 

[Finx]

I don't like ext. english much at the moment.

You know how we're supposed to have class discussions? Yeah, well we have teacher discussions. It's so dull.

I want to drop ext english and software next year, but that means I'll have to pick up another unit (4U maths =/). Dunno what I'll do.


@OP: We've done 1984 and are currently studying The Handmaid's Tale.

[Aerath]

WTF - Buffy?

 

[freaksoutalot]

we're doing gothic, lots of movies

otranto, poe depth study, turn of the screw, frakenstein, queen of the damned etc etc.

 

[Maddie3]

my extension class is doing fairytales at the moment and is looking at gullivers travels and i really dont think that this genre is such a great topic as it seems too trivial... i guess... is that the right wording....
