    General Thoughts: English Advanced Paper 2

    I liked this paper a lot, and imo the easiest I've seen in relation to the electives I do in comparison to past papers Mod A - Richard: Spoke of how both composers show the same ideas and themes through differing values and contexts reflected through their medium of choice and how this in...

    help jst skipped entire section of exam

    A bit off topic, but now I'm curious because I have 12 units and I'm basically writing off Legal Studies as I went poorly, so if my best 2 units of english get counted, if my Extension 1 marks is one of those, does that mean it doesn't count to the 8 and Legal Studies is then counted?

    Predictions for Speeches Module B question?

    Don't think they will prescribe, they will most definitely ask for 3 though. I have a feeling it will be a quote on the 20th anniversary of Mabo, thus you'd relate Bandler, Pearson and Keating as they address unity, equality, and justice. I don't see why they'd specify Atwood when it's pretty...

    Plagiarism in the exam

    I'm very unsure about what constitues plagiarism in the external exam. I know that if you use someone's past paper word for word that is obviously plagiarism, but is an academic's work plagiarism? For example, I am memorising sentences by film critic/academic on his interpretation of...

    Section 3 - Extended Response

    I did The Namesake and Garden State. Spoke about how a person's interaction with the world around them (family, friends, pop culture) over time can influence their perception on belonging in both a positive and negative light and reshape and evolve their previous attitudes. Also how a person...

    General Thoughts: English Paper 1 (AOS)

    My English Coordinator said that you didn't have to explicitly make the characters of the creative a grandfather and son, you COUDL'VE, but it wasn't the most important factor. She said you needed to show the relationship of people overtime, obviously reflected through the past time of fishing...

    General Thoughts: English Paper 1 (AOS)

    Guys, I found the comprehension questions were too complex for the amount of time needed for them. I was really happy with my essay as I prepared an essay for THAT question and my creative fitted perfectly. I missed out on the 5 marker in comprehension.. Someone console me hahaha

    Section 2 - Creative Writing

    It was exactly what I wanted in a question and was good for my short amount of time. It was perfectly fitted and approached a non-linear form of creative writing so I'm please with myself

    Low Stress Levels....

    If you're more relaxed you'll perform better. Plus, if you enter an exam in a positive and relaxed mind set you'll go in, see the question, and start writing fluently and everything you've read and wrote over the past 2-5 weeks will come out. Those who are stressing the fuck out right now...

    Help: Garden state - related material

    Hey guys, I'm worried the essay question MAY be on communities this year, and because I find a lack of community within this film, I was wondering if you could link family to community? There is not much I can find in the film that links to family really, apart from the protagonist's...

    Belonging Question Predictions.

    In reflection I don't think it will be community. It's not something that they can focus an essay on as some texts may not relate to communities. For example, I am doing Garden State as a related material and there is no community or groups in that, more so it's his connection with friend...
