    Hey guys, good to see there are other people considering critical responses! I'm still trying to find a definite area that i want to do...i was considering doing something to do with Forster, or Woolf...the problem i'm having is that all the critical's i've read, that have also done really well...

    Speech TOPICS and RECORDINGS

    Hey i'm thinking of doing a speech as well. Like you say, its difficult to know what to write about because there's no examples of past speeches really...except for that lame one about african women on the board of studies site. I was reading the markers notes as well and they said that not...

Literally, our teacher has never conducted a lesson in the 25 lessons we've had. We're supposedly doing gothic but i dont even know when the gothic period was. Therefore...

    Extension English Students- how many hours?

    Thanks for the replies everyone. I spoke to my teacher again today and she said she had spoken to the head teacher who told her that our school sacrificies the 15 hours in the preliminary course so they don't have to change the timetable in year 12. or something equally ridiuculous. Hearing...

    Extension English Students- how many hours?

    Ok I was wondering how many hours of lessons you have each week? I was reading the syllabus for the extension course the other day and it said that students should do "60 hours of indicative study". At our school, we do one and a half hours a week (although this is closer to one hour seeing at...

    Gothic Short Story. Suggestions??

    Circular narratives are a good way to do gothic....or perhaps include some type of framing device? Letters, someone re-telling the story in a contemporary situation, hidden manuscripts etc. Then again that might be a bit too cliched...

    Julius Caesar INTERPRETATION HELP!

    I've never read Julius Caesar but some other types of readings you could consider might be....historicist, feminist or perhaps psychoanalytic. (these are just some of the one's we're using for Othello so i don't know if they're at all relevant...)

    AN articulate person :p

    Stnd English kills UAI??

    Our teacher told us the highest mark you can get in standard english is 89, i.e. it is not possible to get a band six, because the course is capped. That being said, standard and advanced scale exactly the same.

    We just started Troy, but we've already done the Iceman, the Greenland Vikings, the Anasazi Indians, the Tomb of Phillip II and some random case study on underwater archaeology. I find it really dull...

    Economics and business texts

    Our school uses the Tim Riley books for economics. I find it quite good, but then again i think all eco books are pretty much the same.
