i thought the paper in general was fairly easy. Question 1 was fair and so was Question 3. I reckon if you had some ideas for the creative response you could fit it into the stimulus - it was pretty fair. hope wednesday is just as good

The paper was fine, nothing unexpected. But due to nerves, pressure and it being the very first exam and all I don't think i went that great.

Oh wow that ones over now. I didn't think it was that bad but then I thought that about trials and did awfully bad in that. I thought it was an okay paper. The four texts wasn't so bad they'd done that in trials so it wasn't a huge shock to me. Creative was hard because they didn't give you much of an idea what they wanted and I prefer detail then no info at all - just write something. The essay I thought was easy but I didn't have much time to do it so it may not be the best quality.

I thought the paper couldn't have been better. They asked simple, direct questions, in the traditional text types, which allows them to finally assess what the hsc is about, rather then wasting our time with conversations, feature articles etc. I don't think they would have been kinder.

Well guys, to tell u the truth i hated paper 1 with a passion. lol

Section one i think i did really well in wrote heaps for it (i dont remember how many pgs...)

sec. 2 was CRAAAAAAP-god i hate creative writing. lol only wrote 2 pgs haha

sec. 3 was weird coz even though pp1 is meant to be based on techniques it didn't even mention them in the question but i included them in anyway...woteva.

i'm so over it...
