WAY TO GO!!! Don't listen to the negativity, it really isn't worth your time ☺

I did a comparison between 3 texts for my essay, and because my essay was specifically comparative, the best way I could reduce my word count was just to remove redundant sentences/quotes that didn't end up serving the purpose of my argument. How many words are you over? You can also get your...

Sure I can! Shoot me a dm and I'll be more than happy to help! Integrating context with your analysis allows your essay to flow more naturally and not sound as robotic in my opinion. Mine was structured somewhat more like an essay and I still received an E4. There is no wrong or right way to...

Pretty sure it's digital. I remember my teacher had to scan copies of everything I'd done in my journal to give over to NESA.

I remember my major work journal was at least 100 pages (could have been more). I believe the more you have in your journal the better because just in case there are accusations of plagiarism/academic misconduct (I highly doubt there will be), they can look at your journal and see that you've...

Pretty sure the last syllabus change was 2011. They really need to update it.

Yes, linking to your advanced and extension 1 influences are good because drawing on these are part of your creative process, are they not? I did this for my critique and received a good mark (pretty sure it was 17/20 but I don't have my exact mark with me).

This should be ok to argue so long as you can back up your point with evidence and make the argument itself strong.

Agreed! Whilst Year 11 is important, remember not to get too worked up about it since you can always redeem your Year 11 grades in Year 12 if worse comes to worst.

Definitely stick with three. Having three ideas to discuss and analyse is guaranteed to get you higher marks, so I'd suggest practicing with actually writing out your essay. See how long it takes you to write three paragraphs within a 40 minute time frame. Maybe you need to cut down on your...

Yes of course you should mention this! It even says on NESA's official website that "The student considers how their skills and knowledge of their chosen form have evolved and why. They reflect on particular creative features of their work..." So you can mention that knowledge of your chosen...

How was the interview?

House of the Dragon Season 2

Dark Matter with Joel Edgerton and Jennifer Connelly

Remember guys, Thom Yorke's coming!! Pearl Jam + The Pixies and Crowded House will come too!

I'd probably start by making your qualifications known, so tell people your rankings from school, ATAR, teaching style and/or experience with other tutoring agencies/places and what makes YOU unique.

Yeah I haven't seen any changes https://educationstandards.nsw.edu.au/wps/portal/nesa/11-12/stage-6-learning-areas/stage-6-english/english-advanced-2017

ANU does a lot of stuff with Microsoft, so I ended up replacing my Mac with the LG Gram for my engineering degree since it's really lightweight (moreso than the Macbook Air). I've been really impressed with the performance so far apart from the random updates that happen when my laptop dies.
