    Section 3 - Extended Response

    Identity screwed me over, i had to adapt a generic based around connection and disconnection to place resulting by barriers to an individuals identity shaping their perception.... didn't do down too well. I also ran out of time during my four body paragraph, leading to me only having 1 quote and...

    Section 1 - Stimulus

    Got a little thrown off from the last question, didn't really know how to pull 6 marks out of a single text. I used text 2 for the 6 mark question, my first paragraph was based around how the persona is disconnected from her birthplace , yet connected to Fitzroy, seeing it as "where she really...

    Paper 1

    "you put in what you get out" is a better way to look at it. If you have worked hard you will excel. It has been like this in previous years and wont change this year

    2nd Related Question

    You can't use a prescribed text as a related text for Belonging. You can use a stimulus from the shorts from what i know, as long as you have the full text name.

    Hsc in one week!

I suggest you prepare a...
