the thing is though, you need a reference to back up each subtheory (e.g. left, right, feminism, postmodernism, classical agenda setting, etc.) and a reference to back up the critical response to it. It adds up to way more than 12 as she recommended. At present I have no proof for most of my points, and it's more like a speech, rather than an essay. Realistic mark will be 70% for it.

Sounds like a frustrating and difficult assignment mangs.
It also sounds like you have the grounds to complain even if you dont get shit marks, Stazi.

Re: Semester 1 Chatter Thread

Nah, wouldn't that just be in Philosophy of Maths or whatever?

That sounds like the most wanky philosophy course ever. Does it actually exist?

Re: Semester 1 Chatter Thread

'Philosophy of maths'? Maths is a hard science and the philsophical and logical rules upon which it is based are discussed in any pure maths subject...

Re: Semester 1 Chatter Thread

philosophy wasnt always about contrived essays: science used to be taught as 'natural philosophy'. by the same token, science wanst always about cramming for exams

Re: Semester 1 Chatter Thread

Yeah that subject actually sounds cool though.

...but it's physics. Just as ew as Maths.
