Sc Tmrw! (2 Viewers)

The thing I'm most looking forward to is watching some of the dropkicks that go to my public school get kicked out of the exam. I swear there'll be at least 5 people that it happens to.

When we were doing our trials for maths in the hall the lower 5.1 classes all started tapping on the desks because they were finished, which pissed off all of the 5.3 people. The school exam supervisors (teachers) are used to that kind of crap, so they didn't kick them out.

How come you guys got trials? I dont remember doing trial exams... maybe my yearly exams account for that? =S

 

[cs01001]

Yearlies are trials.

 

[super-shinobi]

Oh right... okay then XD

Oh crap... If thats the case, I done pretty crap in all my exams... should I be worried?

Well the english exam made us do 2 essays and one short answer! our sc exam wont even be testing us on macbeth or the american dream right!?!?! or possible poetry?

 

[cs01001]

Poetry is possible, I think there was one on Subaru or some car thing, can't remember. But Macbeth and american Dream will not be in SC. But know your poetry techniques

 

[Kujah]

Didn't we have a poem last year for our SC? Don't remember.

Know your language, poetic and visual techniques.

EDIT: Ah I remember, it was a poem on the person's Subaru

Lol yeah sorta the same thing happened to us. There was 5.3 advanced maths like me on one side and 5.1 standard maths on the other side. Everyone on my side were full concentrating, looking down on their paper. Then when I glanced at the 5.1 people, they were clicking their pens, tapping their pencils and looking around randomly coz they were finished. It pissed me off. Then when we got our results back, the majority in 5.1 failed. Shame.

Oh and gl to all the people who are going to sit for the SC tomorrow . Maths, science, computing and history I'm pumped. Just need a little more revision on history though and a LOT of revision on geography. I need to do a few english past papers right now and go through my mistakes. And DON'T PANIC, it's not the end of the world, or not the HSC lol.

 

[Kujah]

Yeah, but some of them don't care if they 0/100

 

[cs01001]

Yeah, something about a dad being pissed at the car, lol. Have you tried doing the bridge question?

 

[super-shinobi]

Great! No Macbeth and American Dream!

But I stink at Poetry... does anyone have a short list of techniques? =D

Like aural, visual and something else...

 

[Dimplez]

LOL same!!!!! I HATE GEO!! Its so bloody... !!!!!

At least you got history notes XD Ive got booklets so I'll probably skim through em but yeah.. I dont like history all that much but Ive got a really awesome History teacher so I'm gonna try my best =] Thats the only reason why Im doing modern next year =D hopefully ill get the same history teacher.

This is a very long, LONG list of poetic techniques. Just pick out the techniques that should relate to SC-material.

Lol same!! I like Maths! Maths and Japanese tie as my favourite subjects =] and I like my jap teacher too ^^

my english teacher really bores me tho. Shes got a really dreamy voice that makes me want to sleep xD no one in class pays attention to her so i guess everyone studies in their own time.

 

[Dimplez]

thanks kujah golly gosh it is a huge list ! lol I just know the basics--- alliteration, metaphor, similie, personification, onomatopoeia, hyperbole, motifs, tautology & all that jazz...

yep except I guess in english we just need to know techniques and the different styles of writing and stuff....

 

[Kujah]

That should be sufficient! Also remember things like tone, allusions, type of language and repetition.

Don't need to go into depth with the poetic techniques. Know the basics, and relate them to the actual poem and the poet. We're not rocket scientists trying to deconstruct poems

 

[Dimplez]

lol yep! thanks for the advice

 

[super-shinobi]

Yeah I suppose =] the comprehension should be easy enough.

 

[Scotty101]

Yeah, good luck everyone..
