Which reminds me of a story about a guy from Denmark who was sitting some exams for his physics degree at university, and one of the questions asked how you could use a barometer to calculate the height of a skyscraper. His solutions included "tie it to the end of a ball of string, and let it...

Oh good. I couldn't be fucked studying anyway.

In all the 1990's papers, Q's 9 and 10 were, as you said, mainly max/min problems or series applications. But in the last few years they seem to have been using all different topics.

I made references to the productions and briefly discussed how that production portrayed a particular reading, just to provide an example to prove such an interpretation had in fact been made. However, I spent most of my essay discussing the language features used by Shakespeare.

.4*(AoS mark as a percentage) + .6*(Modules mark as a percentage)

No. There has only EVER been ONE supp. text for AoS, the 2 is a lie perpetuated by paranoid English teachers. The 3 specified were all part of the set text for Module B, and well within BoS' right to do so, as they did last year with "2 extracts".

You, on the other hand, have an excess of dick-like qualities.

Don't laugh at him you guys; I'm sure he can analyse the relationships between text and context and explore the way texts are... yeah, that syllabus stuff... just as well as you or I. And that makes his literary skills equal to or greater than ours; remember, an interpretation of a text and...

Why are there 40 year olds on BOS? And why does Schroedinger have so much pent up rage?

The Facts: They don't relate at all, unless you do "Chemistry of Art" and "Quanta to Quarks" as your electives, in which case the overlap is minimal anyway Chemistry is not useful for university entry unless you're actually going to do chemistry at university. Duh. The chemistry course is...

I was going to upload all my notes and practise essays to BoS, but then I realised they all came directly from here in the first place anyway.

That would consist of a single letter on each line, something to the effect of I N F R O N T L I N E...

Are you a pathological liar?

and then, Right. All inter-science-disciplinary jokes aside, I'm also a pure maths and science girl, and, yes, it could have been much, much worse.

8/7/6... Left too little time for Module C, it just suddenly ends with no conclusion.

Because it's been on that like 3/4 of the previous years. I'm also a production memoriser, but I just took the quotes that I used to justify the various things the producers did, and expanded on them without actually making reference to the production. ie. instead of <producer> makes...

Same. I must have used the word 'value' no less than 200 time in that essay. Got 8 pages filled, though.

Construction, language and... yeah, something else. I hope a whole bunch of kids went in there with all productions memorised and fail because they know nothing about the original text.

Yep. Although I had a lot prepared to write about productions, which seemed less relevant to this question?
