Well hey, it was an essay. I don't know why the hell I argued against the point a bit (physical journey) but I turned it around to support to arguement and perceive it as if it's based on the way the journey forms.

ie: I stuffed up, argh. 13 pages though, that's a record for me, made it in time too. My prepped essay was only 6 pages though, and I missed some stuff out.. I just wrote really big and those writing booklets have tons of space.

Yay for big writing! I wrote just over 13 pages myself, whilst it sure was a different question compared to anything I've done I doubt I could've prepared much more and can not complain as to how i went.

This was pretty good. I was so stoked that it was an essay.. hoping I argued well enough though.

Do you agree physical journeys assist in interpreting the new?

What a load of bullshit. Doubt i will improve on my trial (14/15 for S3).

I took the question paper home and showed my parents what an HSC Eng paper is like (they didn't ask till this point). Anyway they had a look through and they basically said "this is rubbish" lol... We were trained to it, so I guess we are used to it.

More than anything else, imaginative journeys are about the process of speculation. Do you agree? Argue your point of view.


I found it a little off putting. don't remember how much I wrote.

That was a pretty easy essay, wrote 16 pages YAY!!

Anyway, yeah, it wasnt leaning too much towards physical journeys, but i argued it as one's PERCEPTION/ INTERPRETATION of the new landscapes and the psychological changes they experience which is the most prominent thing which happens along physical journeys.

I did Imaginative journeys and argued against the speculation being the most important process. I said transformations and escaping reality were most important as that fit in well with my texts.

Yeah i think the essay question was pretty good, it went pretty well with my prepared essay. I did imaginative journeys and i agreed that the most important thing was speculation. i think i got about 6 or 7 pages but i dont write that big and it was all relevant so im hoping at least 12. Good luck with all the other papers!!

Yeah not a bad for imaginative. you could've argued both ways.
i agreed and argued that audience speculated whether caliban had changed etc etc

How the FUCK do you people write 10+ pages?

I wrote 6 and it took me around an hour.

People have big writing, you probably wrote as many words as them.

More like

More than anything else, imaginative journeys are about the process of ejaculation. Do you agree? Argue your point of view.

Or something.

Its not an essay. It's an exposition, totally different thing. You need more supporting evidence, no waffle what so ever and keep stressing your point.
