One hour until I leave for school. And in a matter of 3.5 hours, I'll be yelling "WINNER!" in the exam room at pens-down moment.

I would say that I was unprepared, insofar that I still need to memorise snippets about my related text + actually write up crap for my other related, but right now I can't be arsed. LotR I can just bullshit, and The Handmaid's Tale is more than ready.

BRING IT ON.

Watch me deflate in the exam room when they give the Genre module a question that's 49648274682764 times more annoying than last year's one. :eek:

i find myself neither content, nor discontent with individual & society. :confused:

my stimulus had nothing to do with the question, and i dont think i answered it properly, but creative was semi-tolerable i guess - im mostly suprised i managed to come up with so much in 40 minutes, with no ideas and no specific paradigms.

and HOW BAD WAS THE STORM! i couldnt hear myself think it was so loud. oh well, another down.

Speculative fiction was hard!! Did anyone else find that??

However, even though it was hard and i thought i was going to fail.. i managed to write three booklets and some of it might have made sense!! Wohoo!!!

hahahahah so easy. the crime fiction question was so broad, the stimulus material of the letter was actually part of my pre-prepared story so it was a joke, just had to regurgitate my learned narrative :D

That wasn't so bad. :) I was fair stressing yesterday that they would pull out something like I saw on the past papers, but that was pretty tame.

For I&S, the composition was pretty good, i could fit the locket in well. For the essay, I found the question a bit odd but i think i worked with it (I hope).

No no no, speculative fiction was easy! The creative writing OWNED AT LIFE. I absolutely fucking loved it - I spent 15 minutes panicking for what to do, but then it all fell into place.

The essay was good, and the beauty was that all of my four texts suited it perfectly; the question was reminiscent of my analytical question from the Trial, so all I had to do was manipulate and incorporate quotes from that, plus write for my related, and then that was it!

EE1. OWNED. AT. LIFE.

<3

:D :D :D

BEST exam to end on. Evarrr.

Weeee, I probably did shit but I can't tell because I'm just so happy because I'm DONE NO MORE HSC EXAMS EVAR ZOMGZ

FTR I did Postmodernism, and my creative was silly and retarculous and so will never get over 19/25 for it. Dunno about the essay, I tried to put it out of my mind. As someone in this thread said (i forget who) this was the least prepared I've ever been for an exam :D But I think I winged it pretty well considering.
