Anybody worried about english paper 2? (1 Viewer)

[sweetsensations]

Most people say that english paper 2 is one of the hardest exams in the hsc because theres 3 essays to write and only 2 hours to do it in.

After paper 1 wasnt too bad on monday, im starting to think that theyve got a big plan for tomorrow!

It seems stupid cos i do ex2 english.... but im starting to feel kinda worried about paper 2..... the people that write the exams can be real arseholes if they want to (evident in geography paper yesterday!!!)

Anyone else worried bout paper 2?

YES!

But largely because I know nothing about any of the modules.

[goan_crazy]

yeah i have a feeling that after monday's exam and how kinda broad the questions were that tomorrows exam is going to be god damn evil.. and apart from the fact that i have failed king lear since we started it.. its going to be fantastic

^that happens to me too! (hurting arm).

Its bound to be killing me tomorrow.... how on earth am i going to spit out my three essays in the time limit if i cant even hold a pen!

English paper 2 is sooooooo shithouse!

Even extension english is easier... shouldnt it be logically harder?!?!

GRRRRRRRR

i wasn't... until right about now as i have just realised that since lunchtime today to 3:51pm i have done jack shit in the way of essay planning.
as somebody said above, it does sound weird coming from someone who does ext 2 english but i reckon the modules paper is so much harder than our silly major works that we got a year, not 2 hours to make fabulouso.
hooray advanced is almost over... then to tackle postmodernism for ext 1. fuck. kill me now. (wow that was the biggest mood swing ever, euphoric to suicidal in just four short sentences!)
i actually don't care too much about the result, its just having to do the test that i hate.
meh, what can you do.
good luck young grasshoppers.

[Kao]

Heck yes, but it's awfully reassuring to see that most people feel the same way

 

[Stazie]

YES!

i could'nt agree more..u said it straight!!!

Modules > Journeys (they're a lot more interesting to study and write about)

Hello People, Just your thoughts.

hey how is everyone?

well i thought paper 1 wasnt really that bad, i thought they gave us an aawesome exam paper to sit...except for the last question which i thought, and most of my school's yr 12 thought was a little f@#ked up, lol. i hope this paper 2 is going to be straight forward questions unlinke the last question in paper 1 cause if it is, i am seriously gonna cry, lol.

what is everyones thoughts on the BIG stuff up at coffs harbour where they got to sit the paper 2 instead of paper 1. Does anyone else see this as an advantage to other students who could of been told what the questions are? i do. there is lso a big big petition going around to have the sxam changed and delayed till right at the end, which is not what i woudl like, as i am prepared for this exam tomorrow. lol

well thats all i got, hopeo someone actully replies to this post.

Ps. If your gonna be dumb you've gotta be tough!

 

[Stazie]

haha me too!!!

 

[Stazie]

well they supposedly didnt actually see it..well they took the paper away before the reading time anyway..realistically even if they saw a bit im not sure it would make enough difference to stress over...but that's just my opinion

 

[HyPnOtiSeD]

mhmm

Paper one was nicely put .. ofcourse they are going to screw us round in paper 2 .. i cant see them being that nice by setting 2 good papers .. there has to be a challange somewhere n we shall all probably face it 2moro ahah oh well everyone will be in the same boat no matter how the paper is set :S

WISH YOU ALL GOODLUCK
