    It's up to you tbh - Use flowery language where you can. I found that a lot of the fancy worded stuff I've mentioned in my essay can relate to the SA question being asked so I'll chuck it in here and there

    2015ers Chit-Chat Thread

    Wait wat You've been getting 9 / 15? or is this a hypothetical scenario? I improved from 10 to the A range by knowing the discovery aspects from the rubric (and integrating them into some of the SA responses), knowing my visual and literary techniques and by actually annotating and...

    Your Approach To Paper 2

    Depends on what you're putting in your plan I know for business studies that if you write down the relevant syllabus dot points in the essay question (as your plan) and you don't finish, the marker appreciate that you knew where you were heading and they tend to offer a mark for that I doubt...

    Your Approach To Paper 2

    Yeah I can guarantee that they will not specify in the first year but like with any Module C essay make sure that you have two related texts prepared

    Your Approach To Paper 2

    Yeah I know, but that only applies for the first year - My head teacher says he's more likely to win the lottery By the time it reaches the year before the prescribed texts are changed they are planning on specifying so gg no re to the future HSC students

    Your Approach To Paper 2

    I feel like if they specify and you know the speech well, then you can take advantage of the fact that a majority of the state wouldn't have bothered to actually memories quotes and their analysis for that speech But like matchalolz said in the other thread even if they don't specify the...

    Your Approach To Paper 2

    How are you planning on approaching Paper 2? Will you go in alphabetical order? Will the order be based on which questions your most confident with? etc, etc. I'm planning to go with C, B then A based on my strengths but if they specify for Module B I'll probably swap that around...

    Module b speeches predictions!?

    Probably but it's defs not going to be something along the lines of national identity They'll shift the focus towards things like unity, literature and gender relations I've seen questions referring to the speaker's rhetoric and how it makes the speech more effective I just hope they don't...
