yeah pretty much

How will u memorize 3 whole essays and reframe them according to the question, that too during the HSC of all exams????? I hope you don't mean word for word, otherwise all I can say is that you are either a superhuman or you have photographic memory.

No, I didn't mean it was crazy, sorry if it was implied that way. I meant that I actually envy you for doing it because I never could, with my poor memory

I think I’m just going to stick with the old strategy of trying to speak it a couple times progressively looking less and then writing it like a thousand times, writing out all of my errors each time

ive memorised none, im starting today

mod c is rlly easy to memorise imo because it’s more creative, like I memorised my trials discursive without ever actually doing anything

 

[scaryshark09]

just wing it for mod C

honestly all the people who winged it for trials got 18-20, and others who tried hard got 14-17. that cause it was a really hard question so you basically had to wing it almost

i have a friend who memorises like 6 paragrpahs for all the modules (only to use 2-3). and then memorises like 4-6 mod c
so essentially memorising like 10 essasy and it still is possible.
in humanities subjects, you have to memorise like 15,000 - 20,000 words anyway also, so 10,000 in english isnt that much

coincidence? I think not

this is the opposite of what happened at my school

Ok what about if there is a reflection? should we go in with a few memorised quotes and techniques from the prescribed texts?

you don’t need to specifically quote your prescribed texts, you just need to know a few techniques that are present

 

[SASH_06_X]

just wing it for mod C

might work for the writing bit, not so much for the reflection
