[turntaker]

this makes me feel how shit I am at english.
bye
I will no longer participate in this thread.

That was an okay exam. I'm most worried about the unseen texts, I feel like I didn't directly answer the question and just used related words from the rubric. But short story and essay I'm really comfortable with.

 

[lpodtouch]

How many pages did you write per section? I felt like I was writing so slowly for the essay.

 

[Flop21]

How do I write faster? I felt like I was writing physically as fast as I could write? Maybe I just spent too much time dwelling and thinking about questions.

Paper 1 wasn't too bad. Creative fucked me though.

Unexpected impact of discoveries or some shit.

Thoughts on the discovery essay question?

A process of discovery involves uncovering what is hidden and reconsidering the known or some shit.

My mate got uber fucked by paper 1. Didn't finish creative or short answer.

ggwp lad.

can't remember for section 1 but I wrote a sufficient amount pertaining to the mark value

essay was 8 pages

creative was 5 pages (lol)

Creative fucked me in the ass. Section 1 and 3 was pretty good. Glad that bostes rolled with 4 texts instead of 3. It was easy marks.

Pretty happy with that exam though.

Paper 2...on the other hand.

oh god.

 

[Flop21]

So if it was a pretty straight foward paper, will aligning be shit this year??? God now I'm so depressed, I reckon I could of got full marks in section 1 if I just had more time.

Section I was around 3.5-4 pages I think (can't really remember tho). Section II was 7.5 pages and section III was 7 pages exactly

it's a new aos.. should align a bit better

 

[duhdevitt]

Section 1: the texts weren't hard it was just there wasn't enough time even though I still barely finished
Section2: I loved it , worked well with my story. Didn't take long
Section 3: it was pretty adaptable to my essay. So overall it was a pretty good exam, hopefully the marking is good aha

Best of luck for paper 2 guys and girls

That is unhuman

 

[tfw english]

Section 1: Not too bad, much easier than the CSSA trial imo, although the questions were a bit weird, wrote 7 pages

Section 2: Bit hard for me, but I made it work in the end, the stimulus were very broad but the "unexpected discovery" threw me off a bit, wrote 7 pages

Section 3: This is was really good although it did throw people off, adapted to my essay pretty well and smashed out what I thought was a pretty good response, 8 pages
