Thoughts on Paper 1 of the CSSA Trial Exam (3 Viewers)

[benji6667]

lol i had a blonde moment, my friends who goto public schools did the CSSA paper today and ive known that for week :S

 

[mel&nate]

nar some of my friends from public schools did the same paper we did today. and im from a catholic school

CAN I JUST SAY, IF YOUR GOING TO DO THE EXAM NEXT WEEK, DO U GET THE SAME PAPER AS THOSE WHO DID IT TODAY.

 

[Miss Leah]

Same, our school just bought the papers.

I wonder how much the papers cost...

 

[Cob-was-here]

Ah I stuffed Section 3 (question 4 - imaginative)
Oh well, sections 1 and 2 were the best i've ever done in either...ever...not saying much though

CAN I JUST SAY, IF YOUR GOING TO DO THE EXAM NEXT WEEK, DO U GET THE SAME PAPER AS THOSE WHO DID IT TODAY.

nope. all catholic trials had to start today im pretty sure.
your school might be setting their own paper or you are doing the independent school trials.

so you cant cheat haha

lol i highly doubt it

 

[Taskan]

i stuffed up my timing, so i didn't write as much as i would've liked for some bits, but i thought it was relatively painless

i was dreading that paper.... so glad its over!
section one was good..... i got the heritage house thing (well i hope i did or i just lost a lot of marks...) but i couldnt find 2 contrasts in mars for ages- mind blank
section II was alright, im not the most creative writer, but my planned story fitted perfectly
section III stuffed it up.... my mind thought the Q was hard so it made it harder for me. cut so much time off the other sections and was still rushing to finish!!

good luck tomorrow guys!
i had better practice writing module essays.... bleh

what was the weighting of this paper for everyone?

10% thank god

 

[Pud09]

I thought section 3 Q4 (I.J's) question was pretty good and there's a chance a few ppl who would have nailed it. Section 1 was alright but as somone said earlier text 3 was a bit dodge...and creative writing is always pretty ordinary but i spose the qoutes are pretty easy to work....does anyone know wat exactly markers look for in creative writing?

 

[BrOmO666]

yeh that text 3 of section one was dodgy..had to have a writer since i busted my shoulder last week otherwise it was a good exam - the essay q was nice and simple

 

[mel&nate]

they cost $100 per student, i heard our teachers talking in the staffroom.
oh and they also pay it through your school fees! NOT FAIR! WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE JUSTICE SYSTEM!!!
we should totally stab ceazser

 

[BackCountrySnow]

10% thank god

That's just stupid tohave trials worth 10%.

 

[Wassup?]

they cost $100 per student, i heard our teachers talking in the staffroom.

hahahaha. that's the biggest bullshit I've heard. Assuming there are 200 students in the grade, some simple Maths,

200 X 100 = $20,000!!!

Each school has say 15 subjects? 15 X 20, 000 = a very big number that I'm having trouble working out. Hold on,... $300,000.


I don't think so.

 

[xJennax]

what was the weighting of this paper for everyone?

20% for both papers for us.

 

[letashhha]

I thought that paper 1 was alright. I fear tomorrow will be Hard, very hard.
I think that text 3 on sec 1 was dodgy as well. and i didnt really like the first text either... & my story was alright i guess.
anyone got any good points for king lear and fifieth gate tomorrow?
-tash

 

[hollyy.]

lol thats not too baddd
ours was 15%
ant tomorrow is 30%

english sucks

thats heaps!
and tomorrows is 10% as well, so all up 20%
but maths is 40%
and sor is 43% wtf lol.

[dannielle c]
