Just practice with few questions and then pray

Hi Everyone! hope studying is going well for everyone (im on the verge of tears). I was just wondering for Mod C, when it asks to "Evaluate how your study of figurative language in The Craft of Writing influenced the creative decisions you made in part a. In your response, make reference to one or more of your prescribed texts." Do I consistently make reference to my prescribed text here, such as adding quotes from the text and also talk about the stimulus? Idk if what im trying to say is clear but im just confused how much i talk of my prescribed text and the stimulus

What my teacher advised me is that since the max length of this reflection would be 500 words i.e. 10 marks, you can get away with an introduction, a short body paragraph analysing one quote from your written text (and refer to the stimulus if you have to), and another short paragraph on the related instance from your prescribed text (again, refer to the stimulus if needed). This is just one way of approaching the reflection and I'm sure there are others on the chat that would either agree or have their own versions for the same.

I agree, for my internals I did only 2 poems but I had thorough analysis which got me a 18/20

Did you use both poems on both para?

 

[Legendary16]

Can anyone direct me on what to do for the UNSW co-op applications?

No, I had one para for each poem

What do we think 4u maths is gonna look like
Considering theres been an exponential increase in difficulty over the last years

I heard from my math head teacher that there's some new overseer guy for hsc math papers and apparently its going to just get progressively harder

 

[K2Trappy]

tbf harder math papers are soo much better than easy ones IMO cause I want cracked 3U and 4U alignment to save me and not have to get like 85% in 4U to get an e4

frfr, iswtg sometimes the hsc raw marks database is too good to be true for 3u. how tf does a 70 in the exam go to a 93

mb 74 goes to a 93. but still das crazy. what im tryna say is if u score 70+ in the exam, thats 90+ aligned.

Howdy All!

Considering there's just over a week until Term 4 begins, I thought it'd be nice to get all the 2024'ers together, just to see how everyone's holding up before Year 12 content is engraved into our brains! I also find it somewhat funny that a 2024 HSC Chat hasn't been made, yet a 2025 HSC Chat has.

I know that the 2023'ers are yet to do their HSC and we technically aren't Year 12s until they finish, but from what I've heard, most schools are starting Year 12 content from Day 1 rather than waiting till Week 5.

So, in saying that, here's an early toast to the 2024'ers!!!

Feel free to say whatever's on your mind!

not bloody good....keep procastinating

True, last year a 66% raw was needed to get e4 which is diabolical, thats pretty much if you got full marks on 11-14 (which is honestly not that hard), got half right on MC and just straight up didn’t attempt 15 and 16, you get an e4 which was like 99.7 atar cont
