Maaan the teachers love my grade. We're all awesome, basically. Nah, really, most of us will just put in the hard work and we've never caused trouble or anything so we're legends.

Yeeaah. There were only 4 Band 6's here in Advanced this year .. last year there were something like 16. I know people whose school based mark was 96 and they went down to 90 for the actual exam. Kinda sucks, but ah well, it's done now.

Yeah, I did accelerated Advanced and Ext 1 English this year. I got 88 and 44, I was devestated cos they were so close to 90s and just not quite there. Then I found out my school got scaled down in English, which kind of made it even worse but was comforting in a way. Yeah.

Heh thanks- congrats to you tooo. I'm all excited about it haha. Umm from my school there were 7 applicants for Comp Lit, we all got in. And about 3 for Cosmology I think? And they all got like ridiculously awesome 97s and such in 4U Maths, so y'know. I dunno if anyone from here applied for...

Yup- I'm in for Comparative Literature :)

There are 40 people in my grade doing Ext 2. Out of a possible 135. Only two of us are doing poetry, me and this other guy. Yeah. I'm glad I'm not doing a short story, or a film, which we also have heaps of. And a surprising amount of speeches as well.

I got my proposal back yesterday, my teacher said he liked my "unique idea", I got good, over 90 marks for the proposal, I'm happpyy with that. :)

Yeaahh, I've basically missed two weeks of it anyway doing accelerated exams ... and I've got three major works to concentrate on ... and hopefully distinction course soon too ... pssssssh HSC! I had my first real meeting with the teacher over it today. I've got a question- what EXACTLY is...

Yeusss, I am - I'm really looking forward to it, cos I accelerated in Advanced and Ext 1 this year so I won't have those to worry about while I'm doing it. As far as I know, I'm the only one doing poetry out of my year this year (of forty kids starting the course ... selective school, we all...

I accelerated in Adv and Extension 1 this year so I only had three units to concentrate on for HSC. I liked the Extension exam, the questions were pretty straightforward even if the Composing task was a bit left of centre. I did Heaney and the Bone People so the Responding task fit that very...

Thanks guys : ) I've had a bit of a look through this year's Poetry stuff, it looks like it's gunna be a fun/stressful/challenging/rewarding time. I kind of need to put it all together somehow though, I'd like to incorporate an existing work or something, not with the content but even just a...

Uh yeah, I'm just starting Extension 2, poetry is the way to go for me. I haven't really been able to narrow down a theme or concept yet, I'm still kind of casting around for ideas. Who else is on the poetry wagon for the next HSC?
