Short answer questions (SAQ) are composed of many small questions and generally students tend to write longer answers than what is required. So if you are short on time because...

    I think just write more and let your teacher read over it. If you know the texts well and understand why different techniques are used to convey meaining in each of the prescribed and supplementary texts, you will get a Band 5. To get band 6, you really need to watch your grammar because...

    B Science (Advanced) and B Science

    s-AINT, don't believe whatever UAC tells you. You are better off trusting people who have been studying at the uni for 4 years. For example, according to UAC, geoscience* can only be majored in Adv science, that's full of crap. I'm sure you can do all GEOSXXX subjects in BSc. Go ask the...
