Jesus Christ! Whats the secret?! I still haven't finished Antony and Cleopatra Although I read BNW last year for some school book review thing we had to do, I haven't read it this year. And I haven't watched BR all the way through, I couldn't stay awake, and I NEVER fall asleep in...

Right.. Uh, I got full marks for the first section, but I don't know how flukey or not that was, or how hard my teacher was marking it. Basically.. I do extension english and the ability to write well helps a LOT. See what effect the artwork has on you. If its an installation, put yourself in...

Questions were alright I guess. Didn't like P/H, the ampitheatre.. leisure and politics is all I did, for 8 marks. The last question was a bit iffy too. The first source looked like preservation to me, so I said that temporary measures were taken until proper reconstruction could be funded. The...

edit: whoops wrong section

Lmao yer, I could literally feel the skin coming off my middle finger when I was on the last essay. So much writing.. We're forced to stay til the end but even the guys who come last in the class were working up until about 10 mins til the end. Then again we have an awesome teacher :D (like...

Of course it is... we're forced to do it and there's no way it counts for half of us. I'm coming ~30/90 and i wrote 2 pages for the extended response and sat there for 40 mins. God knows what the person coming 90th did.

How much are you guys writing, that leave an hour early? I'm hoping to just scrape a band 6, and I finished just on time. Wrote 9 pages for Sparta (society), filled P+H booklet, 10 or 11 for Caesar (personality) and 8 for Fall of the Republic (age)... I write about 1800 words an hour if that...

Re: Write notes or type notes ? Write notes in class/study then type them up at home? I didn't do that consistently, but I type notes. Writing pisses me off, its such a dud form of communication imo, the only time I ever write is at school. I type twice as fast and its infinitely more legible...

How would you answer a question like this? There was one in the CSSA trials but our teacher changed it. Would you organise it to do one historian per paragraph or something? I don't have enough quotes for that, and not enough knowledge about each historian to say what each thought of him...

I THINK how it works is that you're 'competing' against the whole state, and so only 10% may get an E4 but thats 10% of the whole state, which works out to be a whole lot when you consider just the Ext2 students. I dont know the numbers, but say 12000 students did ext2 maths then approximately...

My creative is about 1600 words, my essay atm is 1800. Don't know if I can write that much, but I wrote ~1200 in 40 mins for modules, so 1800 should be theoretically possible. But I'm not memorising for this so I'll need to cut it down to allow for thinking time. ~1600 for each?

How are you structuring your essay? You have to talk about genre theory, conventions, techniques, context. and thats about it, I think? What I've got is.. -Intro -[genre theory, basic discussion on genre etc. havent done this yet, but should I? Or integrate it throughout?] -Detective (im...

@Pretty.. That just flew right over you didn't it? @Everyone else No idea what UAIs you're aiming for, so some of this may not apply. For those who are wanting a 98 or something, and are worried about not getting that, how is that NOT as valid as someone else asking if they'll get an 85? What...

Yeah the difficulty of the test doesn't really matter too much.. you're aligned mark will end up being the same. I found it a pretty even test*, not ridiculously hard like 2000 and not extremely easy, so thats probly the best for aligning..you dont get everyone crowded in one area. *does not...

Q7 was pretty easy, I got everything out except one of them. Hopefully nearly full marks in that one. Now Q8... I'm hoping for 1 or 2 marks. Didn't even LOOK at the volumes question, tried the induction and the f''(t) one but they both ended up retarded. So I just went back to the other...

What potential and talent? She, along with (almost) every other pop star, probably has 90% of her songs written for her, and then she turns up to the studio, sings it once over, gets her vocals tuned after recording. Then she turns up live and lipsyncs. How the fuck is that talent? The ONLY...

Points to anyone who knows any of these bands :D -Ayreon -Daylight Dies -Dream Theater -Gojira -In Flames (mid-career, new and old stuff is bleh) -Kamelot -Nightwish -Opeth (favourite atm) -Porcupine Tree -Tool (some people will know them) -Vanden Plas

I need a quote and can't find it.. its Cicero, basically saying that Julius Caesar is very good at Latin and the best speaker in Rome besides himself. Googled a bit and looked through my notes but couldn't find it. If anyone has it that'd be good.

How do you approach the personality? Asking because I spent over an hour on Caesar (also split into a 10 marker and 15 marker) and only scored 20 or 21/25. Which is annoying, compared to a 24.5/25 for Pomp/Herc done in 30 mins.

Not many people stick to the 'recommended' times in any exam. English paper 1 most people do their creative in 30-35 mins. No-one spends the same amount of time on the 1st maths question as the last one. @Sonya.. Pericles.. is that a personality? I don't know a thing about the other...
