Bloody good exam, but, i shoulda studied more.... i recon i prolly got about 12-14 on question 1, 12-14 Q2 and 10-12 Q3, which is pretty shit, but for the amount i studied its good. but everyone wil think it was easy so then ill go shit, oh well, only english, NO MORE ENGLIHS EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER AGAIN AND I NEVER HAVE TO ANALYSE A TEXT OR REMEMBER A QUOTE YEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!! The rest of my school thought it was pretty easy too

 

[penciltron]

i thought it was a really good exam
i cant say wat marks i got coz i have no idea how the markers will judge it if they are stricter or watever compared to my school
oh well
it was definitely a good exam and i think a lot of people will do well since they were pretty broad
i loved the BNW question i thought it was perfect for the module, same for frontline and king lear was good but i answered it wierdly, hmm.

 

[jazzi_jess]

that was awesome, just essays that were preparable
Module A: BNW/BR
Module B: King Lear
Module C: Frontline

Yay! it's finished and i wrote 40 pages, my hand is caining, anyway, never again!!!

 

[!lukey!]

Yeah i think we were lucky to get three essays and no ther text types so im pretty happy with that paper but am more happy about no more english ever lol - no more analysing texts so good!

 

[know_it_all]

bos mustnt have bin feeling creative this year
no playing with the text types, no retarded audiences
!!

 

[Gibbo69er]

I was really happy with the exam.

I did
Module A: BNW/BR
Module B: King Lear
Module C: Frontline

And I must say, the questions were very broad, you could pretty much talk about anything. And they were all essay-styled questions - which was great, no having to be creative

I think I woulda done better if I studied more... well thats obvious. lol. But I think I tried my hardest. Didn't go over one booklet for anything though. I tried for module C, got to 7 pages and a third and had nothing else to write and 2 minutes left. So I was happy.

kept in times for everything

 

[bEAbEA]

i didn't think i went so well - i completely ran out of time - spent far too long on BNW/BR but at least i know i went well in that one....

lol, i wouldn't be all surprised if that did happen...

does any1 know if there have ever been just plain essays for the whole english course, including AOS and Modules in one years HSC. I think we got off pretty easy

 

[Mz_mE]

aww it was alright
Module A: BNW/BR
Module B: Speeches (levertov, havel..had to make up stuff bout king)
Module C: Powerplay (A&C)
3 essays was good.. atleast i get a mark for structure.. *hopefully*
i dont think i wrote enough.. i got in the exam.. wrote all my intros 1st.. then worked across all of them.. i needed to work on time management coz i completely got confused how much time i had left..
