I know most people don't care about the SC - but did most of you guys give it a serious attempt on the day?
Yeah defs. When I walked it- I actually tried my best and checked my answers etc. (though admittedly for maths, even after checking answers there was still WAY too much time left). I still remember my english creative haha- I had read the book "Of Mice and Men" like two weeks earlier and I called my story "Of Martians and Men" LOL

You remind me of our old Deputy Principal - even on his last day at the school, he was still in the play ground picking up rubbish and instructing people to fix their ties.

Well I was really chill about it, I practically did not study (like read over my notes right before for two subs) but gave it a decent effort when I was in it. Was pretty thrilled with my History result, 98/100. I'd actually die of happiness to get my SC results as HSC results haha! Though unfortunately my other two best were computing and geography which I don't do :p

Oh it might have been NAPLAN. What did we do for SC lol? There wasn't an essay was there?
It think it was just comprehension (unseen text then write questions about it), but there may have been an essay?

really?
We still had school. Like we had a week of work experience.
THen we had a week of doing some random shit (all my own work, learning CPR, went to the beach for a day, some leadership thing... can't remember what else)
Then we did like year 11 'taster' lessons for 2 weeks, where they didn't teach us the content but we did a bit of the subjects that we wanted to do for prelim

Yes, my year9/10 history teacher was obsessed with it.
OMG!! in year 10, they had a problem with plagiarism from skwirk!
There was an assessment for history and about 70% of the grad plagiarised :)

I was freaking out that I had when they told me, but turned out i hadn't

Papa was hilarious. I remember another facebook group making fun of the science exam. I can't remember the molecule they specified but it said something along the lines of "are you _______? Cause you're 200 times sweeter than sugar".

What about if they choose like the lee-y/basil text from the 2012 cssa paper again :(
Even though I got 3/3 for that question (because I bullshitted), i still don't understand that text
