How is everyone preparing for the exam tomorrow? Is everyone ready?

Also, what are your prescribed texts and what have you chosen for your related texts?

hey guys,
I'm doing After the Bomb: Ways of thinking
Texts: Waiting for Godot and Hiroshima
Related texts: Russians by Sting and Watchmen

I'm just kinda bleh on how to relate them all. I sometimes get lost about what ways of thinking i should go with so I ended up settling on talking about how all texts represent the reliance of individuals on authority. The texts confront the audience by displaying the loss of autonomy and the affects of the blind faith in the authority.
I don't know if thats good enough or if it makes enough sense to completely meet the requirements of the rubric but hey, last exam- just gonna do my best.

Does everyone have a creative they've worked on?

Doing ATB too, hope they don't ask for all three prescribed text that'd suck.

I've done a series of creatives throughout they year but a la belonging, none may fit.

Soooo not looking forwards to this, worst 2 hour exam ever!

Hopefully you will be okay, as will we all. Get your bullshit muscles ready guys

My creative is actually perfect I'm pretty proud of it, anyone ever attempted to write in austenian prose - that shit is hard!

Also is anyone willing to read my creative, it would make me the happiest human in the world :D

Hi extensioners :)

Like stillthinkin, I'm doing Romanticism too;

Prescribed: Coleridge, Keats + Austen (Northanger Abbey)
Related: many, but focusing on William Hazlitt + Charles Lamb

for prep, now I'm just basically memorising quotes and creating essay plans for a bunch of questions.

will be the happiest human alive when this is over!

any tips for Romanticism for a current Year 12? I hate it so much and my teacher is a nut job... lovely but speaks in tongues sometimes! Northanger abbey will be the death of me.
