lucky XD.


my teachers are so precise they circle every mistake and yeah correct my grammar and etc in my exam essays. (but its a good for a cause)

but i ended up with 17/18/15 =.= bad marks but solid effort for 5hrs of study for my 3 modules. (I got lazy zzz)
we had like 7 assessment tasks before the trials, and i worked hard for most of em. all i studied was get 5 techniques for each of my text and remember them. teacher made us do 2 practice essays in class and a lot of listening papers. thats basically all i studied tbh.

i would appreciate it if my teacher pointed out grammatical errors and all.. but well they are giving me 20's i should be happy with that. lol.

Same we had 5-6 before the trials also XD.. I was rank 1 before the Half yearlies and my marks have been pretty descent XD. LOL some of our teachers are very very generous, they give us soo much advice hehe :) one reason why i love english.

I worked hard also hehe XD reason why im rank 2 now (not that good though lols), yeah but..

Well i've been very consistent XD so pretty much i just relax the day before the exams hehe :).. but we didn't do practicse essays in class lawl hahaha, our class is pretty slow.

However my prep was about 15 essays for trials, ( i did not study belonging lol i underestimated the level of difficulty).... I hope i can come 1st for hsc externals T.T so much to improve on.

nice marks btw very good effort, hope you can get high band 6 for english XD

I wouldn't call 17/18/15 bad. I got 20 for Pride and Prejudice/Letters to Alice, 14 for Hamlet, and 12 for Conflicting Perspectives. I would have been happy with your marks.

no. ESL doesnt align as badly as standard. to get a band 6 in ESL you need to be in the top 3.2% of the state but in Standard u have to be in the top 0.2% of the state.
How come Standard scales worse than ESL? Is it because the BOS believes that ESL is more of a challenge considering English is their second language, or is it because Standard and Advanced do the same Area of Study paper and Standard generally does worse in that?
