    General Thoughts: EE1

    Textual Dynamics was largely what I was expecting, and by the end of the exam that two hours had flown past! Essay: Quite broad and multiple aspects to discuss; features, form, ideas, experience, act of reading. It all tended to flow together however so I think that overall it went down pretty...

    Extension English: Chances the question asks for 3 prescribed texts?

    Yeah man I agree totally, seeing as its a small cohort and arugably the hardest theoretically, you should end up getting aligned really well. I found that it actually helped me out really well with advanced too, helped in picking up some techniques and themes I wouldn't have otherwise been able...

    Extension English: Chances the question asks for 3 prescribed texts?

    We *aren't* rocking Night Letters. So it's Calvino, Fowles and Orlando, which in all honesty isn't too awful, just don't really enjoy Winter's Night. I'm at Riverview, its roughly a top 40-50 school but we happened to have a teacher that is really good with the elective. Seeing as everyone else...

    Extension English: Chances the question asks for 3 prescribed texts?

    Yeah, we do TD but aren't rocking Night Letters. I really hope its not three, I would be screwed for Calvino and I'm not sure how well it would go down that one of my related texts is also by him, seeing as I wasn't even planning on using Winter's Night in an essay anyway. Completely unrelated...

    General Thoughts: General Mathematics

    That exam was hands down the easiest in recent memory; past papers dwarfed it difficulty wise to a significant degree. There was very little in the way of harder topics ie. annuities, non-linear, and in my opinion there will be a TON of people getting above 90 as a raw score. Took me an hour to...

    how to get 15.15 in a creative writing piece ?

    Don't be cliched, and obviously no teenage angst. Try and make it obvious that you are an advanced, not a standard student writing and have sophisticated structure and a diverse array of language to use. Would probably also help to do something that you are legit interested in, so perhaps you...

    We're all in this together...right?

    Thanks for putting my mind at ease guys, really appreciate it.

    We're all in this together...right?

    Hey all, Just a general question which I only realised may have potential to screw me over slightly. I was ranked relatively well this year during Advanced, and post-trials decided it would be beneficial to upload a portion of my notes, quotes etc. in order to help everyone else go well, because...

    My related text is a set text?

    Find new ones Mr Dwyer, better to be safe than sorry in my opinion.

    Another one of those "What do I need?" threads

    Used to do Advanced, so General is a breeze, full marks for first assesment and finding everything just a repeat of earlier years at the moment. Thanks for the advice, that's sorta the area I was thinking

    Another one of those "What do I need?" threads

    Hate to ask, but, what would I be looking at for my subjects to get an ATAR of above 90, which is my ideal goal. Anything more than that is a bonus. Also, should I perhaps drop economics as I am pretty sure it will be my 2 units that don't count, not sure though. English Advanced English Ex. 1...
