Re: Anyone spare a poem or how to make one? =P On the contrary to Aplus' idea you could do a male perspective - have a man explaining the wonders and positives of his life while at the same time highlighting the strongly unjust treatment of women (what I mean is make it so the abuse of women's...

Definitely agree with that statement. Choose maybe 3-5 themes in Othello and explain each one briefly linking it to a modern event or way of thinking (e.g. racism in Othello to Cronulla riots). Or go all out and do one major theme and have each paragraph as an aspect of that theme (e.g. for...

A topic sentence should be a general kind of "preview" of the paragraph. Keep it simple, make it really, really clear what your paragraph will be about. For example, Donne’s use of techniques enables us to vividly understand the aspects of life and experience inherent in ‘Batter my Heart’...

As a general rule, what you have above is great (point, quote, comment; technique, example, analysis; idea/answer, evidence, explanation). In a short answer you simply don't have the room to repeat as you would in an extended response/essay. I find with short answers if you've answered it...

Knowing what the question means! Not striving for perfection! Making sense! Writing so that everything you write relates directly back to the question! But it's easier said than done... short answers can be frustratingly hard at times.

For listening you have your normal language techniques in the spoken stuff i.e. simile, metaphor, multi-sensory imagery, but also auditory (sound) techniques including: > dialogue > silence > monologue > sound effects > diagetic sound > tone of voice > rhythm (including duration (lengths of...

You've done well mate. 1st in 3 subjects!! Congrats.

Assignments: taking your time and know exactly what the question means, and therefore work out an answer that thoroughly answers this question. Exams: have a good exam technique (e.g. in maths, effeciency - not too fast so that the silly errors pile on but not too slow that you won't be able...

Got my report today: > Studies of Religion 1 - Mark: 50/50 - Rank: 1/94 > Mathematics - Mark: 94/100 - Rank: 1/31 > Mathematics Extension 1 - Mark: 34/50 - Rank: 5/13 > Chemistry - Mark: 80/100 - Rank: 3/18 > Music 1 - Mark: 96/100 - Rank: 1/10 > PDHPE - Mark: 90/100 - Rank: 1/19 > English...

Hmm... just a few suggestions...

This question of the syllabus has the following sub-headings (everything below is taken straight from the syllabus): > Circulation - Components of blood - Struture and function of heart, arteries, veins, capillaries - Pulmonary circulation - Resting heart rates - Effect of exercise on...

Oh! :eek:

Yeh, from what you've said it the two parts to the question - purpose and evaluate don't seem to go together. Maybe, the purpose of the artwork is fairly clear but you have to evaluate how well this purpose is conveyed through arty stuff (as you can infer I don't do art)

it is - a UAI of 99.00 means your HSC performance was equal to or better than 99% of the state

have you talked to your teacher about the confusion? are there others in the same situation?

same, and english is back for me like 5 weeks later

No (I don't think). If you do 3-unit maths, the extension 1 part can only count as 1 unit i.e. stays as 40/50 (1 unit being /50) in your UAI since you studied it as 1 unit for your HSC.

um, we did a small topic on basic definitions - then did Better Health for Individuals: looking at how exercise, nutrition, drugs etc affect health - now we are doing the body in motion: biomechanics of human movement, components of fitness, muscular system, skeletal system...

True... We use weight in PDHPE too, it just annoys me that in physics they teach you weight is a force that differs depending on the acceleration due to gravity, not how heavy something is.

It clashed with PDHPE - I am kinda regretting the choice (since PDHPE is not my cup of tea anymore). I would of loved the mathsy side to physics, but oh well, can't change now!
