ah, im not sure actually :x i think i read it was 79 somewhere on the paper 1 thoughts regardless 84 does seem a bit high

last year it was 79/105 and that was a pretty straightforward paper i can't imagine it being as high as 84, especially not this year

Re: wtf are Module B man.......... you did have to analyse the full poem/speech/essay w/e it said "make detailed reference to [the mandated text]" so you'd have to talk about more than the concluding things they gave you. sucks :L

i literally screamed the title of this thread out loud as i walked out of my exam hall.

definitely lower imo. this years mod b was undoubtedly the hardest question they've set in a long while. those who were unprepared are going to get shat on. im guessing around 75-77/105.

mod a and mod c were good and all. i dont think however that mod a was entirely a -insert generic essay here- question, because of the 'distinct contexts' thing, as someone already said in this thread. mod b is mod b. lol.

well to the many who predicted that mod b would be a shitfest this year, you were right =P probably max i can get is like 15/20 but then i was never really good for mod B anyway heh also a teacher (who marked mod B before) said that you don't need to say "I" or "my" in your essay, as long...

iirc, last years paper was also one of the easier/more straight forward ones, so the b6 cutoff was higher than usual. (then again, whether or not our paper was harder is all subjective anyway) so if it really was 79/105 in 2010 (idk, but that does sound about right) then we could expect...

5, 6, 6. my writing is pretty small though

This is why you use "she" or "her" instead. 2ez :p

that wasn't a bad guess actually, lol. maybe i'll keep a tally here just for the heck of it.

yeah i think this ok, i think i had similar stuff + added in techniques and quotes and shit. hoping for at least 4/5, hopefully 5 :L also for part (b) i said first person...and i can't remember what else. haha

im actually more worried about the 2 markers than the longer responses LOL. idk, just feels like my responses to c,d,e were pretty good (although i can't really remember what i wrote for anything now) was speaker 1 speaking twice of any significance? i didn't even notice that. didn't use that...

Re: How Great Was That? i was crying tears of joy when i opened the paper and saw the theme was actually place (like i predicted :p) essay was great. unseen texts were nothing tricky/obscure (unlike our trials, holy shit) creative was like "lol insert your prepared story here as long as it...

well good that's sorted then. back to memorising your prepared responses everyone! :p

lol.

its likely that whoever wrote this has no clue about the exam format and is just using phrases like "adaptation of a studied text" (lolwut) just to make the board sound professional, or w/e. fml if i have to adapt AYLI though... :L

if it makes you feel any better, one guy in my school last year didn't sit his MX2 HSC exam (sick? idk why) and he ended up getting a state rank HAHA get well soon buddy :)

paper 1 - 7 paper 2 - 6 everything else - 1 HAHA. well that's what it feels like in my head anyway, but i guess that's just me being me

ah sorry, i meant AT LEAST one. I'm pretty sure 2009 was the first year they specified ONE (as in, only one) and it's been like that since. but yeah, its unlikely to change this year
