I hated that...

 

[kewon]

I think quite easy to adapt though I kinda forgot how i answered it

arghhhh yes -
I used a lot of techniques for that, shit like the symbolism of their watches upside down, it conveys unity and connection amongst each other, but the idea that they're upside down is a paradox which also symbolizes disconnection and disinterest in the school

 

[kewon]

lawl that watch thing was probably the only substantial technique i had haha and it was given to us too

few kids in our school didnt do the paper and doing it next week and its same question, not a good idea to post it up until the "lock down time" thingy is done

According to CSSA you're not allowed to do the paper after the specified date.

I'm just glad the extended asked for one related. Thank fuck for that because I was even close to being prepared for two related.

 

[procrastinator2]

i worried modules are going to ask for critical reference and 2 related texts : /

 

[kewon]

yep if the belonging question asked for 2 related i woulda done my module c related text and vice versa

no u cant do it earlier : http://www.cssa.com.au/ServeDoc.aspx?f=lkjied32h2

thats why they have the security period of 19th aug

Problems:

Section 1:
Didn't understand that stupid text about the new kid in the school. Techniques? Stooped low to personal anecdotes/symbolism.
That poem. It was easy to understand but the only thing in it was contrast and juxtaposition. Wtf.

Section 2:
Let's not go here, I wrote better in School Cert.

Section 3:
Initially I had trouble adapting but I think I got through.

2 kids are doing the legal paper later than wednesday, and they're getting modified exams

you can't sit the same CSSA after it's done

that's what my school said, anyway

you are allowed to do it after that date but CSSA is saying it is only safe to do it on the specified date so if schools do it after they risk having an unfair trial

no

I spent way too long on my short answer section (which probably panned out okay-ish) and the essay (which was also relatively decent) so I literally had like 25 minutes for the creative and it didn't link very strongly to the stimulus, so that's where all my marks are gone

For people who need advice on S1.

I'll save that... for the actual HSC

You're about 4 hours too late

 

[the_one_1]

Started with section I then III lastly II

Amazed that I wrote 3 and a bit pages for the essay. Thought that wasn't possible.
