In the exam room, extended responses (essays or otherwise) must be written in 40 minutes. Any longer, and there will be less time for other responses. For many students, stopping to think critically about the question is a non-event: they must write for the entire 40...
I go to a relatively good school and just ONE person can actually write a GOOD essay FULLY adapted to the question on the spot. It is difficult and this year it was even harder due to the severe changes in the questions. If people were given some more time, the complaints would not stream in...
My parents would probably not speak to me for at least 3-4 years LOL...>>i really dislike the uncomfortable silence . I would NOT get thrown out but this is just as bad seriously. Before the silence starts id get the 'wasting your life' lecture.. Any similar reactions?
''The HSC is not a memorising test,''
Why they lie? Do we not have to "memorize" thousands of quotes in english? Oh yeah and there is NO way one can come up with a decent essay fully adapted to the question in just 40 mins. You can barely get down your entire memorized essay in 40 minutes..
Okay seriously...you do not need to do a LOT...just go through stuff..once or twice a week. I didnt do much at all...and OMG people keep saying "last holiday till end of hsc". In my view this is soo untrue. My half yearly exams ended just before the easter holidays and i did nothing all...

This was mentioned in another thread. It is not my work and i have not played any part in creating it.
Just let it out...what do you care more about ..your hsc or your dignity?
1) im pretty sure you do not know what the word TROLL means lol
2)You are saying--question will be marked as if it is AT LEAST ONE TEXT . What i have already posted, but you misinterpreted, is that they will NOT take the question as if it was AT LEAST one text cause that is ridiculous.
3)Be it...
Actually...most of them READ the question..and guess what? they didnt have enough info on ONE so they just added in the second to make their essay look ' normal sized' .
'I know! i can just write irrelevant impertinent crap even though the question does not ask for it and the marker will think...
