    DAILY TELEGRAPH - Top 200 schools

    Personally, I feel that General Maths and Standard English are good choices - haven't we all been told, from the very start, stick to what you're good at? I know All Rounders with UAIS of 96+ who did both Standard and General - not that I can say, I didn't do maths at all and did 3u English, but...

    Hey - sorry to subvert - I thought it was a tricky one! How did the other 54 in the state who do this random subject go?

    You never know if they will take length into consideration: personally, I think there's only so much you can say, and concision is taken into it.

    Ciao ragazze, non voglio dire "facile" - ma era un buon esame - me l'ha cavato. Penso che l'esercizio d'ascolto fosse un po difficile - ma il parte di scrivere...non c'e' male! Beh, sono ancora nervosa per "extension" chissa come sara!!??!

    Speaking Exams Round 2

    Our teacher saw the trial and said she made it "harder, but more straight forward" - our listening was basically a culmination of lots of those nasty end questions - you know, where they get more difficult, I usually lose my marks in listening, but reading was ok I felt - I'm assuming the HSC is...

    Hey, we got a competition entry last year in yr 11 half yearlies, and trials last year was entrance to a competition - you had to talk about music (EEK!) - it can happen, but it's one of those really cruel ones, I'm hoping for a letter, or an e-mail...those ones with two emails back and forth...

    Speaking Exams Round 2

    That's not good - I don't have any doubled up exams, but the reason I dropped French last year was the worry that I'd get confused... I'm sure you'll be fine though :) - how did u find the Italian continuers trial btw? Did you do all of Ilta with that ridiculous multiple choice listening thing...

    Hey guys - I hope it's straightforward too... Personally I'm a bit of fan of Italian opera-esque singers - the song "Caruso" sung by Bocelli makes me rather um, 'emotional' lol. I finish on the last day of the HSC - and I have week of hell in week 3...blah... A girl in my italian class...

    Speaking Exams Round 2

    Week of doom is approaching! I seriously think I'll need a hand replacement or something after that one to get through my drama exam. * The continuers paper should be OK - I mean, if you know those columns and vocab to go with each, then you can safely assume that you'll be semi-sweet for...

    Speaking Exams Round 2

    Speaking is usually one of my better marks - it's a shame it's worth less than the last section of the exam. We do the film in my class - anyone else? I worry a bit for the extension exam: they can seriously ask you anything - one year it was on multiculturalism and how it enriches our lives...

    Speaking Exams Round 2

    That's so funny - we went together, and I knew one of the examiners! I was at parramatta - I kind of remember you - i knew one of the examiners and i think u got her cause she was my teacher from last year. I did 1 & 3, as I said - role models was a little weird. I think one of myarguments...
