my ideas for the creative were of not-belonging so i was screwed for that part..
which led me to fail section one due to the lack of time

Section 1 - CBF as usual? EPIC fail finding techniques, last question too short, techniques were WAY too forced and dodgy.

Section 2 - there were 2 stimulus's? (top and bottom) i assumed they were together. Didn't finish off with a good ending, i forgot about the time.

Section 3 - WTF, ONE text. I used 2, hopefully they choose the better one (doubt it). Spammed the word "understanding" like 2 million times.

I didn't state which stimulus i was using for the creative writing either! fuck?? But apart from that I felt my creative writing section was the best one i did.
Section 1 - Wrote too much for the 2/3mark qu's and not enough for the 5mark!!
Section 3 - Ran out of time. Wrote too much on my presecribe texts! had to start dot pointing!! ahh! did anyone else run out of time????
HOLY CRAP! you're screwed! I learnt in year 11 after my Othello essay, NEVER EVER DOT POINT! I got 4/15 for it!

Section 1-didn't write enough
Section 2-didn't address the stimulus
section 3-forgot how to spell, left out techniques
Exactly wat i did sigh.. nothing we can do now... but look forward to paper 2 and do better to make up for this one
but i think i did okay in section 3 remembered most things

I'm a little worried about my creative writing, I didn't prepare one.
Does anyone know if Paper 1 and Paper 2 are weighted the same? 50/50?

section 1 - very happy with, four typed pages.
section 2 - extreemly happy with, also three typed pages.
section 2 - ran out of time, only got half way through techniques for the simple gift

Spent way to much time thinking about creative and the short answers. :mad:

AHAHAHAHA lol. how can u forget to spell.
and is addressing the stimulus like the protagonist's dad sayd "people, like plants...etc."
no, you have to do more than just include the quote, the entire story must be based around it

came in doing section 3, then 2, then 1. going overtime for 3 and 2 meant i had only 19 minutes to do section 1, managed to do everything but question e; although i did manage to write 3 sentences for e, which means i'll get a mark at least.

i'm reasonably happy with sections 2 and 3, but i don't think i did enough for e in section 1.

bloody supervisors take too long to get the extra booklets. fuckers made me lose time.

By worst mark will def be short answers. Essay and creative = domination.

Hey Boxy, how crap were those section 1 texts. None of them mad any sense whatsover. I swear i got like 6/15 for that section ...grrrr.
The other two were pretty sweet, i aced creative but essay was a bit all over the place without my second piece of RM.

im sure its fine
it didnt explicity state that had to write which one.
as long as it was evident in your creative writing, it shouldnt matter.

Section 1 was.. okish i think. Hated the stimuli but i think i answered them ok.. maybe. :s Section 2 = awesome. :) love creative section. I was able to use my prepared story i got full marks for so I'm happy. Section 3 = epic fail! only using one related text completely stuffed me up! Took way too long to decide which of mine i wanted to use. lol. So it was completely simplified and rushed and shit and did not include nearly enough techniques. fml. :(
