I thought all the exams were quite difficult, even though I practiced on past papers which I thought at the time were easy. Good luck =)

All of the multiple choices were really simple, but the creative writing was where i stuffed up. I seriously couldnt think of anything, so it ended up being about monopoly lol (the dice)

lol that could be it. Maybe when the BOS posts our exam up on the site, I'll look over at it and think how easy it was. I am not underestimating my "pro ness" LOL although I am quite flattered. Only about 3-4 people get band 6's in my school. BAHAHAHAHAHA.

I think I died ...

English is my strongest subject (School Certificate-wise), and I think I stuffed up, big-time ... my story was about the clock/watch ... and how this girl (protagonist) was waiting ... in time ... for her mother to die ... it was so ... BLEURGH. :(

I was originally going to focus my story on time-turning, as in, that watch was a Time-Turner, but I figured the BoS wouldn't accept my work, due to PLAGIARISM ... maybe I should have quoted J.K.R. at the end? :)

So, all in all, not one of my better exams, but oh well. I hope every one else went okay. :D

In every English exam I have always lost many marks in multiple choice and rarely any in marks in writing.

I'm sure you'll do well. In the English Trials I got 86% and in the SC I got a mark of 92. Aligning plays a role in it too.
