    Someone smart please fix my creative??

    This is the attachment that I did some minor editing to. I re-paragraphed it as well. Didn't really want to do any wording changes, but hell, a fair bit needs to be changed.

    Someone smart please fix my creative??

    Mix up the language a little. I remember seeing lots of "slowly" and "nothing". Try to get out of the he said, she said formula. More action could be used to cut that out. Concision could also be improved on here. eg instead of “When was the last time we went for those walks James?” she...

    Preliminary HSC Yearly Exams Thoughts & Results

    Not from a catholic school, but found this question a bit hard: 1.35g sodium carbonate and 1.35g copper nitrate were both placed into 2 separate beakers of water. These substances were then mixed together. What is the mass of the copper carbonate is formed? (not exact wording. I cut out 90% of it)

    The effectiveness of Energy Drinks/Energy-charged food before an Exam?

    Yeah, they work really well (for me anyways). But only in moderation more than 1 bottle makes you uncalm and unfocused, like you're "thinking too fast". Other than that, it's like magic, the extra speed helps (esp in writing based subjects & maths)

    Are you a maths or english person?

    Hard to say, I like both, and can do pretty good in both. Eh, maths. But the thinking skills wise, i tend to be better at applying the more creative ones (eg geometry topics in maths)

    "the naturally smart kids aren't usually the ones who do well in the HSC"

    Maybe it's a perception problem? I think what she's defining as "naturally smart" is the ability to quickly understand and apply concepts. But she personally, needs to repeat something to remember it. Applying and remembering are 2 separate things (as someone said)

    Need help with bearings.

    If you need help with something, post up a question, then it'll be easier to help. A bearing is a measure of an object's direction from a certain point.

    Is there any hope for us kids?

    I sort of had to look up tarpaulin, but it sounds more .. angst/frustrated. The angry part - subtle, but is it meant to be? Angry poetry... I might just try it one day :cool:

    Is there any hope for us kids?

    LOL - now I don't know about you, but I've never had an angry taste before. To be honest, I've never really been the poetic type. I'll stick to essays. Yes, slightly patronising, I know ;) Your ego likes it though

    Angry.. poetry? Angry poetry?! The twisted ways of an ex2 and hx2 student... With the post its though, try using colours you hate. I hate pink, so it just got me to stare at the post it more. Helped though.
