    English Ext 1, Major Work

    No, it depends on the school since prelim english is basically made up by your own teacher. And realism is a great topic to write in, it allows you to ground fantastical ideas into normal(and usually gritty) topics eg a wonderful idea would be to depict an immortal/superhuman/etc who is not...

    Marks/grades etc.

    Hey, I have strong suspicion I'll fail one of my assignments so I was wondering - does it matter how much I fail it by? For instance will it affect my final mark for the subject if its a crappy fail vs. a barely fail for this assignment? Or does it just count as 'fail'?

    Genre Theorists

    http://www.aber.ac.uk/media/Documents/intgenre/intgenre1.html This has some stuff appropriate to this module. Also, you should remember that in HSC essays you don't need specific citations as you would for university articles - the name of the theorist is fine. No marker expects you to cite...

    2nd person narration

    Ah, second person is like trying to french kiss a bouquette of broken glass - very painful at the best of times. As has already been said, monotony is a key thing to avoid with second person as the word "you" is used constantly. However I think this is more because we aren't exactly taught to...

    stat test

    If you decide to do it through the UWS RET, you should get notification in the mail from them on what to do. However if you want to go on one of the other sessions(most pharmacy students do this) then go here for more info.

    stat test

    You get scored on each test out of 200 - as you only need to take the multiple choice component the 200 is out of that area only, whereas someone who took both components would get an averaged score (IIRC)

    Progress on Major Works

    Considering the specificity of a critical response, it may make your research easier if you decide very specifically what section you are analysing. This is because you don't want to get bogged down in irrelevant reading to the point where you know sooo many general facts and ideas about this...

    Sydney Writers' Festival

    I'll probably be going to this, might see if I can beat all the journo students out and do an interview/article on one of the authors for the Festival News:D I also think its a great opportunity if you are interested in taking your love of writing up at the tertiary level, since it'll give...

    Does anyone know how I can find out the working hours of my tutor at UTS without having to go to UTS? As I don't want to go there and have no one be there... Is there something on the UTS website or an info number that I can call? If anyone could tell me that would be great.:)

    Titles

    Or if not a quote, a reference to a character or event can be nice, for example D & L Eddings' Malloreon is a reference to the continent it takes place in(Malorrea). Its simple and it works well when you consider one of the underlying aims of the book is to expand boundaries.

    Random facts about your stories.

    Agreed. You should let your writing be guided by what you are trying to write. Its not that different from say Steinbecks decision to use very colloquial contractions to depict his characters' dialogue - frowned upon at first for being 'improper' but now that work is a piece of literary gold...

    SAM and Premium Membership

    The scaling changes each year in regards to the current cohort not the previous, so an inability to choose to generate an estimate for 2003 as opposed to 2005 is rather irrelevant to the base purpose of SAM - which is to generate an estimate based on previous year's trends and it still does so...

    study guides

    I know that there are ones for Crime Fic by Five Senses Publishing, as well as for Revenge, RFTG and I&S. However, its not a real good idea to rely on study guides for this subject as it is meant to be more individual and academic. So its probably better to make your own study guide.
