Not happy:angry:! I just need to get it through my head that I need to study. I could not remember anything about the Silvia Plath poems.

I did alright. Did Part 1, then 3, then 2 trying to waste time. I'm happy I got 2 pages and a bit on Jane Eyre considering I havent read it yet. Telling the Truth was good, I liked mine. Transformations? Fark it.

Did anyone who did speeches for module B actually know atwood's speech inside out, or briefly for that fact? NOT ME! I thought it was a pretty poor paper, but found the Emma/ Clueless question reasonable

non-catholic school kid here as well; anyone remember the CSSA 2003 questions for john donne, ros + guil/hamlet and 1984? Our school has a habit of being so lazy they copy other people's questions. thanks.

eng advanced paper 2: 4, 4, 5

this is with small-medium ("average") writing, using the school's writing pads (with the school's crest on it and spaced out lines about 1cm wide :))

Does anyone think that that is maybe a bit too much information? That could not have been all quality information:confused:.

considering other ppls, i know that i needed to knwo more abt teh speeches, but my hand kept cramping...the last page of the third questions seems illegible, cause i couldnt grip my pen properly...our pads...were like the ruled writing pads, that u could buy in newsagents and i get mediujm handwriting...but i think i couldve done better, if i memorised more, which i suck at ..... neway good luck for other exams

My thumb gets a massive lump in it when I write too much. Hurts like hell.

actually no.. my writing is the smallest thing out... well big enough to read... but small enough to fit about 10-15 words a line..
it wasn't on hsc pads. we had em for the AoS paper but for sum reason we got normal cheapo pads..
so yeah when i said i wrote that much..i seriously did...
once i get writing i cant stop.. and i write really fast ..
a good combination :)
as far as i see it everything i wrote was relevant and had everything to do with the question..which is why i am soo pleased with myself..
our teacher prepared us well so i had alot of content in it.. i'll let you all know my mark when i get it back..
anyways good luck everyone
