    The 40 minute essay conspiracy theory

    yeah, i use em too coz otherwise i smudge what i've written. if you lean too hard on the desk as you're writing it becomes harder to move your hand fluidly and write quickly. if you use your non-writing hand to anchor the paper then you can make sure your wiritng hand never touches the paper...

    The 40 minute essay conspiracy theory

    but you aren't being asked to demonstrate understanding of the whole of your module, only the aspects they are asking you to comment on. Yes, it's perfectly acceptable to include references and commentary on other aspects of the module to show general undertanding, however, the question provides...

    Memorizing Essays.........

    i might be wrong here, but don't the exemplar answers come in double bands? ie. bands 5 and 6 are lumped in together? how then would you differeniate between them? i'm just guessing, i know that's the way it's done in some other subjects, it might be different for english.

    Question - Feature Article

    it's an interesting problem --> technically, yes, you ARE supposed to write in proper format. this can even include graphics (you are not expected to actually draw graphics, but you could be expected to put a box showing where a graphic referred to in your text would go). the same goes for...

    Question about king lear

    yes, there are provisions for them to ask something along those lines - asking 'with detail to two scenes' is a distinct possibility (specifying is unlikely but if they did it would most likley be the opening and closing scenes). Asking about specific characters is also possible though less likely.

    Students who ask TOO Many questions

    what do you mean entered without the capability? surely your head of maths would have only offered acceleration to those s/he felt had ability? well, I'm not sure about your second point, i know several excellent maths students who were at the top of our form and dropped maths in year 12 due to...

    Composing your essays

    To Be or Not To Be That is the Question

    i did I&S and we all loved it...especially drooling over Darcy :p it's not necessarily the social paradigms that are fascinating (though looking at the evolution of mores in society can be interesting) but how the composers are challenging them through their texts

    Students who ask TOO Many questions

    maybe he just decided he didn't want to do maths - after all, if he was in an accelerant program he must have the capability

    To Be or Not To Be That is the Question

    i agree - do both. if you find you dislike one of them you can always drop it, though i have trouble seeing how anyone could dislike either of them

    Students who ask TOO Many questions

    the real question is why the hell does it bother you? i know people who did that, guys and girls, but it never bothered me; tune out for thirty seconds. just doesn't seem worth getting worked up over

    English!!!!!!!

    glitterfairy: a person giving themselves the name "skitzo" was born to be a nervous wreak. i wouldn't associate calmness with that title. that said...a few nerves are good skitzo, much better than over-confidence, or my downfall, not caring enough to put the effort into getting a good mark. so...
