[Drdusk]

For the exam on 9th November

Good luck with the exam Class of 2021, on behalf of us all on BOS!

You can share your thoughts here on how you found it.

 

[YourLocalDumbAss]

I already can feel a nightmare

 

[vishnay]

i'm saying individual questions for all the texts this yr and for section 1 there won't be a visual

idk i just feel it

 

[O01x]

If Module C is a 20 mark discursive/persuasive then I'm just going to leave the exam hall

 

[iwanttodogoodinschool]

I feel the Common Mod essay question will have something to do with anomalies, inconsistencies and paradoxes of the human experience.

that would be lovely

 

[iwanttodogoodinschool]

Maybe something to do with form as well. Although I feel Mod B might have something to do with form as well haha.

wait form? what would they ask for that

 

[YourLocalDumbAss]

If Module C is a 20 mark discursive/persuasive then I'm just going to leave the exam hall

“I strongly agree that you should” be available to leave the hall..
I do miss Year 5, great time in our lives when we all going to be kings of the school once, Year 6 left. And the year my family had travelled from Denmark to Australia, and forced me into doing NAPLAN when my English was poor and I only had done well in the Maths section of NAPLAN.

Here’s an extract from the syllabus

“Students study one prescribed text and a range of short texts that produce rich opportunities to further explore representations of human experiences illuminated in texts. They make increasingly informed judgements about how aspects of these texts, for example context, purpose, structure, stylistic and grammatical features, and form shape meaning.”

So yeah I think a form question is possible lol.

do u think the "power of storytelling" could be asked this year

 

[Wizjaro]

I don't think so since they asked something similar last year. Leaning towards anomalies inconsistencies or motivations and behaviours this year.

I feel the Common Mod essay question will have something to do with anomalies, inconsistencies and paradoxes of the human experience.

ughhh that'd be amazing

 

[zizi2003_]

it could also be on human qualities or emotions

 

[Vaibhav123456]

Nope since that was the exact question of the 2020 hsc lol

Na it was in sample questions. Last yr was like shared and personal experiences. But same thing they probably wont ask it.

 

[mikrokosmos]

Hoping its anomalies, etc.

I doubt form - I'm doing poetry and theres only so much u can really analyse about poetic techniques like not enough for a wholeee essay

 

[mikrokosmos]

i know BUT each poem I have like 3 main poetic analysis (structure, aural x 2) but its not enough for a whole ass essay i think

praying that its anomalies HAHA

 

[zizi2003_]

ok so if it's anomalies-
can we also talk about how a certain thing in our text deviates from OUR understanding of how it normally is?
or does it have to be a literal deviation in the text itself

 

[mikrokosmos]

YES to both

 

[Wizjaro]

Wait this is actually so clever though. Never even thought about that.

 

[zizi2003_]

@Wizjaro do you do the merchant of venice for common?

 

[Wizjaro]

Yes I do haha.

 

[zizi2003_]

Yes I do haha.

WAITTT i need to ask you a bunch of stuff lol
