[agentcheeseball]

I am pretty sure that I dont the same paper as you.

My mark was 82%.

Curious what societies did you learn about and how long your essays and such were?

 

[fishy89sg]

i wrote 14 pages altogether

we did

introduction to ancient history
bog bodies
homer and the trojan war
tutankhamun
dier el medina

you?

 

[karnoganguli]

80% in yearl exam.

I joined after the half-yearly: i did alexandria, Cicero and Pliny. I like ancient egypt personally but we're doing Greece and Rome in year 12.

 

[bored6]

I ended up with 92% for the yearly exam...assessment result pulled it down something fierce though and ended up ranking third : (

 

[kazan]

on the contrary i hope my epic assessment result pulls up my 67 but next year i have to step my game up

 

[agentcheeseball]

We done:
intro to ancient history
dier-el-medina
homer and the trojan war
tutankhamun

what ones did you guys choose to right about in the test?

I am doing greece for everything in year 12 save the core subject on rome.

On my first assesment task we had to make a log on a pretend dig we done and i got a B which dragged my rank down which frustrated me but I haven't recieved my yearly rank yet.

 

[fishy89sg]

i think we're doing pompeii as a core and then hatsepshut or whatever and sparta

well intro to ancient history was mandatory in section i

section ii we either did homer and the trojan war, bog bodies or tutankhamun

section iii was deir el medina

25 marks each and i got 14, 16 and 20.5 respectively

 

[agentcheeseball]

Yeah pompeii is the core we are doing sparta this term. I am actually excited sounds extremelly interesting. From what I have been told so far.

Over the yr we did the mandatory intro (Archaeology) topic. Our case studies were bog bodies, tutankhamen and the iceman.

Then we did to in depth societies- Deir-el Medina (mainly on new kingdom religious practices) and Rome in the 1st century AD.

In our yrly we had 3 sections all worth 25 mrks each. 1st was a skills/source archaeology question which required interpretation of material. Second was an essay on either medina or Rome, and third was short answers on either ICeman/Bog Bodies/Tutankmen.

I was stoked as i got 73/75.... which is like 97.3%. Just hope i do as well this yr.

We did:
Intro to archaeology
Tutankhamun
Rome
The Celts
Homer and the Trojan War
Boudicca
Greek Drama.
But we only had to write an essay on 3 of them. I chose-
Tutankhamun- 16/20
Greek Drama- 18/20
The Celts- 18/20.
For a total of- 52/60. I think that works out to be around 86%, I was ranked 2nd.
Unfortunately my 2 middle assessment tasks pulled me down, so my course rank was =5th out of 48.

 

[breakout-09]

I got 86% in my prelim.. ranked 1st in the year for the course.
We did the intro, like everyone else (God I hate archaeology), Rome, Homer and the Trojan War, and.. Minoan Crete. I can't remember much else (took me 20 minutes to remember Minoan Crete!)

Currently doing Sparta.. lot's of fun

 

[princesskt]

i um.. actually failed the exam.. we're doing pompeii too for our core. i really like it, its SO interesting...

 

[fishy89sg]

omg sorry for the late reply but even with my horrid 67% i still came first in our school overall O_O ...i know

 

[orly?]

wow ancient history is soooo easy!! im in yr 11 and i reckon its the easiest out of all my subjects
i think its more easier than yr 10 history

 

[nicole21290]

I got 92% and studied Introduction to Ancient History, Bog Bodies and Ice Mummies, Tutankhamen, Deir el-Medina, Troy and Alexandria

 

[xlil-miss-muffx]

i ranked first and i got like 94% for exam. i averaged 92% for the course.

we did

archaeology
deir el medina'
homer and trojan war
rome

i prefer rome but unfortunately my teacher decide that for hsc we're doing all egypt except the core topic of course.

 

[sezza899]

I did the same exam as you I think.
I got 92 %
But somehow I don’t think that’s going to reflect my HSC mark!
I seem to be getting worse as I go along! lol

 

[joshwilliams88]

my prelim mark was around 87-90%. i can not remember exactly what we did but it involved medina and tut. unfortunately my hsc assessment has only been around the 75% mark which I am not sure what the reason is for this. ah well.
