Sparta, maybe the army, agoge or women, but I cant remember whats been asked recently, so that might have been asked last year? I'm hoping for one on festivals or myths and legends, so hopefully that. Cleopatra could be anything... I'd really like manner and impact of death and ancient and...

Pompeii and Herculaneum, 8 mark, maybe private houses. I agree about the political structure though, thats my prediction.

My feeling is that for Pompeii and Herculanuem they will ask on politics, private houses and ethics. And for Sparta maybe a question on the army or the agoge. Maybe Second Triumvirate for Fall of the Roman Republic. My teacher kinda agrees with me. For Cleoparta, pretty much anything goes. But...

This thread is pure evil. I had a massive breakdown this afternoon because of it, about whether they would specify a poem for Module B Gwen Harwood. So I called two of my english teachers who said its pretty unlikely, you will be fine, and I called the HSC Advise Line and the lady said, yeah...

Do you think this would apply to Gwen Harwoods poetry? I will die if they asked for a specfic poem, especially since my school barely covered one of them.

Sleep. Even if you do study all night, you'll forget heaps of it because you'll be too tired. You only have one essay for tomorrow, you should finish working on it by eight or nine at the latest. So sleep and be fresh.

I'm not stressed about the exam tomorrow, English Paper 1 is my easiest. I'm just insanely stressed that I won't be able to sleep tonight and I'll get to the exam on like 2 hours of sleep (Plus only 5 last night :( ) and lose unnecessary marks because of it (not gonna go into specifics, dont...

Yeah, I always listen to music after breakfeast, generally classical. It calms me down.

I have a pen that I stole off my maths teacher, I cant do maths exams without it, I say it has the spirit of maths in it. :D

Haha, I was reading Harry Potter, like all day, everyday, as a form of distraction but luckily I finished a few weeks ago. And so the proacrastination just got stupider. "Oh look, a bush turkey! I'll chase it around outside for twenty minutes! :D"

Oh god. Starting again, I'd explode. Makes starting the exams seem a little less sucky. :)

You wont be saying that when all of your pens run out. :)

In the trials I took 5 pens and 4 ran out in one exam so I went and bought a pack of ten. I took them all into the rest of my exams and everyone said something along the lines of "oho, got enough pens!" Ten isnt that many. Two have run out since, so I will probably take about eight. Oh, and my...

English! It almost doubled my maths mark. Maths is depressing.

Guilt-free nothing.

Maths. 55%. At least I do 12 units and am doing reasonably well in everything else. So see ya later maths!

I've applied for a uni course that needs a low ATAR, 70 or something like that. I used SAM with my trial results, and used my own stupid form of scaling and estimated my Extension 2 result and ended up with about an 84. That was with me bombing out in two of my trial exams (54 in maths, and...

Toormi- 2452. Haha, Toormina, on the mid-north coast. Our "gangs" are named after our post code. :) Ah, that sucks that you didnt get any days off. Ours was probably so long because there was asbestos in the roof. Ahh, the quality.

Yeah, thanks. But we are either going to call the Board of Studies and see if they can just check the page number for me or if not, we will just have to re-submit. My teachers seem to think that they will accept that. But hey, at least I found this out now and not in a months time. :)

Funny story. I was all organised, I had it all finished for at least a week. I printed it off on Thursday and gave it to the teacher when she wanted it bound. On Friday, we spent a while just signing everything and making sure it was all in order. Then I realised, when my teacher haad made my...
