Today, 8:56 AM  | So who's ready for tomorrow's exam? You can hide this advertisement by registering. I don't think I am. I'm just praying for a nice straightforward paper... wishful thinking, I know.  Anyone else in the same situation? |

Today, 9:33 AM  | Re: So who's ready for tomorrow's exam? Yeah, I hope its straighforward! I'm fine for the essay (I hope) but I'm a little worried about the story. I have two stories prepared that I'm really happy with, I'm just worried they'll ask us to do some weird "pretend your a character in one of the prescribed texts" like they've done in the past. That'll screw me over. Can't wait till its over. |

Today, 8:56 AM | Re: So who's ready for tomorrow's exam? I'm the opposite... I'm hoping I get a good mark on the story to make up for the undoubtedly pathetic essay the markers will be forced to suffer through. I'm the only one in the class too so it's not like I can scab marks off anyone |

1 Nov 2009, 2:26 PM | Re: So who's ready for tomorrow's exam? I think I'm pretty ready for it.. Like I really don't like creative writing at the best of times, but i have a few ideas to go in with so I think that helps.. I know my prescribed texts and my texts of own choosing.. I'm just hoping they don't ask for like 1 prescribed text and 3 additional texts.. |

29 Oct 2009, 4:56 PM | Re: So who's ready for tomorrow's exam? Luckily I can pretty much think up a story on the spot The essay is gonna be a killer... Like seriously, I love science fiction and all, but 2001 Space Odyssey just doesn't do anything for me. I'm hoping for the easy paper option (Dam Sig pic doesn't work  )

29 Oct 2009, 8:18 PM | Re: So who's ready for tomorrow's exam? It's hard to know whether I'm ready or not. I mean, I've studied, but every time I try to practice for an essay or story it just seems pointless because I know I can write an essay.. i know I can write a story.. There's just no way you can really prepare for stimulus or essay question. Guess I can only continue learning crime writing.. which I've been learning every lesson for the last year... Should go OK though I hope. Just struggling with study at the moment cause I have no idea how to prepare.. |

I hope they ask for 2 prescribed and 2 related. I'm definitely prepared for that. Especially for the prescribed. I know them really well. Just...not...related. | |

"if you don't follow the instructions you should be marked down" I wouldn't be too worried but - just read over some of the stuff you did in class for your prescribed just so you have an idea... as for related can they really ask for more than 2. If they do the majority of my class will be screwed... *fingers crossed?*

Today, 8:56 AM | Re: So who's ready for tomorrow's exam? [quote=ozgirl123;4679759]as for related can they really ask for more than 2.quote] If I've learned anything from my HSC exams, it's that the BOS can ask pretty much ANYTHING they want. That being said though, I don't think they'd be so evil as to say "at least three" for prescribed or related texts. |

I was told by my teacher to know two self selected texts...nothing about three. i think thats fn ridiculous to do more than two. fair enough this is an extended course and harders course than eng advnced, but we shouldnt have to incorporate 5 texts to talk about in an essay...like wtf |
