That exam was such a trek
Memorised all my quotes waiting outside the exam room
Was considering cutting out some of my essay but like fk that
went through all this pain memorising - not letting myself leave ANY of this out lelele

Cut out like 1/3 of my creative + a few extra bits here and there, got it down to 3 pages from like 5 lol

Trials were so PAINFUL
I had the QAT(?) trials and the problem is that I did essay first, took my sweet ass time to comprehend and pluck out the techniques only to look up at the clock to see I have 15 minutes for creative. I pray I did amazing on my unseen to fucken COMPENSATE

Also I has business afterwards, and boy did my arm feel numb

ya i cant think of any for those quotes lmao .-. ... stressing right now sort of I guess.


For John Donne and Wit, how many poems should you have in your essay? I've heard from 2-4. I did a speech for it and it had 4 but idk if thats the best idea.

Though it was recent, all I learnt was that the superconductor had the ability to exclude external magnetic fields. We deduced that there wasn't such things as eddy currents going on at all?

Or does your statement still maintain the validity of exclusion of magnetic fields.

There are no eddy currents in the superconductor.

The explanation still maintains that permeability diminishes towards zero the further away from the surface of the superconductor. It diminishes exponentially. Zero permeability implies complete exclusion of magnetic fields.

Hence why the surface current theory is explained in HSC, because that is what actually occurs.

Do people memorize essays or just ideas/techniques/quotes?

 

[ProdigyInspired]

Do people memorize essays or just ideas/techniques/quotes?

either way works, but a mix of both is optimal

 

[ml125]
