My exam room was quite good, nicely lit room and a large clock that was easily visible, the chairs were ok but I didn't like the desks (real wobbly). Our supervisors ran through everything before the exam began and gave us a warning 10min before we finished, which I thought was quite good. They...
When i went into the exam i heard one of the teachers speaking to the other "did you hear what happened on the board of studies news... etc" pretty sure it was about this exact incident
The more I think about it the less likely they could have a single text as this would mean having to completely change the 4-6 mark comparison question normally used at the end. Also if it were only one text we wouldn't need as much reading time (unless it's like 3-4 pages long?), not to mention...
"composition on or adaption of a studied text" > Text can relate to anything like a phrase or image so it will probably be the same as previous years (although studied? unless they mean the area of belonging), I think the unseen text was just a small typo, however they did word the sentence...
Essay (Before I forget all the quotes, etc) > Creative (normally I spend to long on creative so by doing the essay first and this second my hand will be tired enough to force me to restrict the length) > Short answer (I can get these done quick, but I spend to long if I don't have the time...

Only need ATAR of 68.5 for my course, think I'll make it
1) If you are only applying for uni entrance and not using their AES, Equity scholarships, etc options then all they really do is once they receive your atar (or whatever) they send your info to the uni and they decide if they want you or not
2) i believe that everyones' info is sent to the uni...
I also applied for early entry and distance education (through online) at the same time (it's good to have back up options), this way if i wasn't accepted through early entry they could immediately look at my online application.

Re: CSSA Chemistry 2011
I probably went to far in depth, i explained in regards to temperature, pressure and removing the products and also said its significance for germany - explosives, fertilisers. I said it was a highly accurate assessment
I eat loads of hot chips (not like macca ones, proper thick ones - potato), yeah they aren't healthy but they do the job for me (keep me satiated for a while). Also if you eat bread then drink water straight after, fills you up more
Starchy foods are good cause they break down slowly and so you get energy over a longer duration (rather then all at once) and shouldnt feel to hungry till a while after. Could always do a combo and have a sugar fix then have some slow-energy releasing food to help in the short and long run...
I only need an atar of 66 (when including the 4 bonus points for living in rural area) to get in my course of electrical engineering although i would be content with an atar of 80+ and ecstatic with an atar of 90+. Realistically though i think i will get mid 80s
