question in regards to poetry for the exam o.O (1 Viewer)

[derek_]

is it a possiblity that BOS will stipulate a poem which you must use? i don't think it has been in done any past hsc years (but i may be wrong) but they DID specify a poem for our trials so yer..anybody know?

for gwen harwood?

yep they can and they have... one time they stipulated u must do glass jar (i don't know which year)

they say that so that teachers don't get lazy and just teach 3 poems instead of all of them... the question is will they?... its a gamble...

me?... i don't think i'll bother learning all of them (besides its too late now)... just praying they don't ask

u probably need to know 3 very well

... actually maybe it was alter ego now that i think about it... .

anyway the point is yes... i remember my teachers stressing this to us

considering this is first year of gwen harwood...when did they stipulate
as so many ppl were proven wrong for paper1, i will prove them wrong for paper2. they will just say that u need to know at LEAST two poems, just as they have done so the past few years. so all u need is two poems to satisfy the criteria =p

bugger that.. i'll do whatever poem i want

yeah this is the first year for harwood...i don't think they'll (and hope) tell us which poems to write about cause if they did for harwood they'd have to do it for the whole of module b and that's fuck people up really madd and i'm pretty sure they'd be an outcry....they've also never dun it for frontline so let's hope they keep it that way

 

[Narelle]

eh i don't know anymore

but they stipulated something... i do remember our teachers warning us that they can

anyway i doubt anyones gonna know all of them properly...

and yeah they'll be an outcry

stuff it, pray they wont
