Excuse me... that's what im referring to. I'm being over-dramatic because of the fact that there isn't a different text type.
Learn to think.

So that means if it they are anything but essays the Board of Studies just made themselves very vulnerable.

es·say/ˈesā/
Noun: A short piece of writing on a particular subject.
coud be anything
From the BOS website"
"Tuesday's two-hour paper for English Standard and Advanced has three parts: short answer questions about an unseen text, a composition on or adaption of a studied text, and an essay based on the area of study, Belonging."
Someone please tell me what 'a composition on or adaption of a studied text' is referring to?

that's the creative story. In other words, you would either write the creative from scratch or adapt your creative into the stimulus (that's what it should mean by adaptation of a studied text)...
But that gets me thinking... I thought the board of studies discouraged memorizing essays and the creative.

Yeah. That would make them very vulnerable. Idiots. Should've made it 'three responses'.

Only module C can possibly be a speech in paper 2. I mean I can't ever imagine a FrankenRunner or Hammy speech. A G.Rob speech sounds pretty viable.

Ask your teachers/school friends. We don't know where you do it.

Don't think so...
hopefully not, because I took out my 2nd related from my prepared essay because of the previous trials and hsc questions asking for ONE related....
But I think I can bs if they ask for a 2nd tbh

I fucking predicted everything right. :/
Still think I did shit.
Except the 2 RT thingy.
I should've used my second RT. It related to the question more. :/
