Reply With QuoteYeah short answer questions were bloody, hard and really badly worded I thought, I had to reread the one on how has Aboriginal Spirituality contributed to the nature of the relgious expereince two or three times.
Did no-one else think that was a pretty hard exam? compared to the past years?
I know almost everyone at my school did. The multiple choice was fine and the essay was fine, for women anyway. But the short answers, i mean...whoa...seriously. they were very left field. what did they mean by elements of dreaming? and changes to Aust religion due to social factors? and ecumencial development? what did everyone do?

everything i learnt and was told to study...
wasnt even in there...
i am a little cut...
but i still finished fairly quickly, and i think i got the answers right...
i think i will pass. i thought the short answer questions were very ambiguous and i had no idea what to write, but hopefully, some of the stuff i mentioned gets me somewhere. i need religion to count so im praying for a good mark. i thought the essay question was pretty easy and the multiple choice were fair, but i didnt like any of the questions in the middle, except the ecumenism one and the dreaming elements one.

mmm well i'm glad to have it over - the multiple choice and essays questions were okay
aaarrrhhh - the short answers - i didn't like them at all - except for land rights that was okay
religion and the media section - 1st question was okay - second one kinda came out of no where
regardless i am sure i passed but deffiently wasn't my best exam
protège-moi
i agree.. at my school everyone hated the short answer and our teacher (who sets the performance bands for the hsc marking) agreed that they were hard and said that the marking critea would have to be really broad to be able to incorperate everyones answers. the essays were a bit wierd.. not hard but differnt to how i imagined. did anyone else do ethics? that essay was harsh.. i didnt even get to talk about my second religion!!!

the short answer was definitly harder tahn previous years, and i think the part a.b.c final question in 2001-2003 is much easier than a straight out essay (esp when it only asks for 2/3 rites, that screwd heaps of ppl up, not me luckily)...meh overall a pretty hard test i was a bit shocked in reading time
that was sooo hard!!
i was going through the trials lasr night.. and it was like 10000000 times easier then the acctual HSC exam... even the past papers were much more easier.. i even did the online multipul choise on the boardofstudies website and score 100% everytime... i think i did sooo shit in this stupid exam.... the majority of my year walked out 1/2 n hour into the exam... and to top it off... it was sooo hot and i was so hungry... i started writing the mcdonalds jingle all over my question paper... AND the last question for 1 unit.. about the rites of personal devotion or rites of public worship?? WAT R THE ODDS OF ME ONLY MEMORISING RITES OF PASSAGE!
AHWELL... thats 1 unit down the drain...
i hated the short answer questions. they were worded funny, very difficult to understand what they meant. and i only really remember the rites of passage, i thought they wouldn't specify
GAY. that's all i have to say and....i think we should go back to the old extended responses
B Business (HRM/IR) / B Laws, GDLP
it was a really crap test! so much harder then all the practise ones i did
yeah i only really did a rite of passage as well, but does any one who does two unit know if it was alrite to do the same thingd for religious rites as u did for ways of holines?? cause i did, but i dont think ur allowed to
that religion exam was nasty.
was happy about the extended responce 4 teachers and interpreters, cause i knew one better than the other and it did give us a choice. the multiple choise was similar to my trials, same difficulty anyways.
short answers was evil. in my opinion i neeeded them to be a little more specific, to gaina better understanding if what they were asking. a few questions could have been interpreted differently.
yeah i agree with wat most ppl have sed as well
the short answers were ok on the most part i thort apart from a few like social change..... like u read the syllabus and its not even there..... no1 new wat that stuff was and seriously i dont blame them at all...... BOS should have been transparent id say
then media part 2......... WHO HAS LEARNT ABOUT CLAIRVOYANTS...... absolutely shocking..........
but neway i rekon i did ok
ummm? YESSS, my hardest so far!
NO VSU
"Peace, in the sense of the absence of war, is of little value to someone who is dying of hunger or cold. It will not remove the pain of torture inflicted on a prisoner of conscience. It does not comfort those who have lost their loved ones in floods caused by senseless deforestation in a neighboring country. Peace can only last where human rights are respected, where the people are fed, and where individuals and nations are free." - Dalai Lama
essay and multiple choice fine, im not sure if i think the short answers were hard i just think they were different to what usually is there

exaggurater!
exadgurater!
100% score everytime? i dont think so!
walk out after half an hour? i dont thnk so (minimum 1 hour until ur allowed out of any exam)
you were hot and hungry? i dont think so! it was cold and i was full
down the drain? i dont think so! more like ... uh.. failed thats it....
you
I thought that people are not allowed to leave within the first hour and also within the last half hour. Because it is 1.5 hour exam that would mean no one can leave...they didnt let anyone in my school leave until whole time was up, but that may have been an attempt to make everyone take it seriously
like heaps of others i remembered an answer 4 the rite of passage. so i was stuffed in that Q
also i think the last media Q 4 2 unit was a bit ambiguos and stupid
i passed .
this probably sounds like im whingeing but our teacher didnt teach us anything about models and guides 4 ways of holiness, i did some of my own notes from the few sheets we were given, but that still wasnt very much. its a bit unfair that we arent able to do the best of our ability because our teacher was unorganized.
apart from that little problem, it was ok
