I agree! There's one for pretty much every other topic! It's probably just cos Cloudtreets not as popular, but still!!!!

*points to image of mods slaving over existing guides for purely goodwill reasons*

*points to image of mods having a life (eg uniwork) outside of BOS*

*points to studyguides in a bookstore* :D

Although maybe if you can find a mod/BOSmember who has done their HSC who did Cloudstreet and ask really really really nicely, they might write a guide up...

heh. There's always one module everyone hates ;)

But damn, it'll feel so good walking out of your exam room in a few months, realising that you can finally burn all your notes ;)

... ok maybe not. Be environmentally responsible and put them into the recycling bin. :p

Here's a good one

Is Cloudstreet a crap book?
Certainly

What should I focus my essay on?
Quick, the son of a biatch

Should I make any practice essays?
No, because they'll just give you a random and specific question that'll screw you over bigtime and make you feel bad for actually studying since you have wasted an entire year.

Should I read the book?
NO, find a summary that's all you need (honestly)

Am I going to do well even if I study?
No, you will not. This is evident in the school's result, the highest mark acheivable to this day for THIS text for module B is a 16/20!

Am I screwed for Engrish?
Not unless you get like 20/20 for the other modules and then 15/15 for creative and journeys

Hope that helped :)
and I was serious about the part where you dont have to read the book
