    I am confused

    ok i do citizen kane but it's still module b. my teacher told me on thursday module b is all about YOUR OWN PERSONAL INTERPRETATION of the text. you can then contrast your view with critics interpretations (or in your case, productions im guessing) but then always come back to your own. like...

    Modules Adv... memorising essays, winging or in between?

    sameo. i loved that i knew my creative writing back to front, plus it allowed me to fit it more to curious traveller but not be too distracted since i knew where the story was headed. i'll be memorising my generic essays. i'd be way too freaked out otherwise. for all my other subjects im fine...

    Modules Adv... memorising essays, winging or in between?

    not sure hey. last year was only one for powerplay but before that for ages it was two. i don't really mind either way, i only have my second text because it might ask for two but i can just as easily scrap it because i know more about my other add text anyway.

    How many booklets did you use?

    i don't really see why anyone would be annoyed with people writing more pages than them...if you are happy with what you wrote what does it matter what someone else did? it depends on memorised or spontaneous, writing size, different writing speeds...and the whole 'quality over quantity' thing...

    use of '&' in the hsc..

    eh i'll be using 'and' although i know a few times in trial i wrote '&' and i remember thinking 'should i have done that? oh well' and kept going. i'd never abbreviate or whatever in english, like its english so may aswell show you've got a good grasp on the language itself as well as themes...

    what do we wear

    nope full uniform for us! i don't mind though, i think it will feel more real and serious doing it in school uniform, since mufti days at my school always seemed to be the most lazy days :) i'd def rather uniform, then i wouldn't have to figure out what to wear to each exam, i'd just get up, put...

    Is anyone using already prepared essays?

    definitely! i'd be screwed with going in with just quotes/techniques and just writing off the top of my head. for english at least. you can work out basically what they can ask you anyway and my idea is that if i know the essay well enough then i can manipulate it to the question. that's what i...
