I've got all my trials + AMC + ICAS left.

The funny thing is I'll probably be more nervous for ICAS than anything else just because of last year and expectations etc etc.

what happened last year? :S wish my school offered ICAS but oh well...
edit: googled it... mirin'

Any tips to as how I'm going to remember around 28 quotes and techniques for tomorrow?
(Module A: 4 for Blade Runner + 4 for Frankenstein , Module B: 4 for each of the 3 Speeches , Module C: 4 for Julius Caesar + 4 for ORT)

Who else is going to get absolutely raped in the modules? Because, I know I am. I haven't even peppered it.

Do you guys think it is compulsory to have critics in your Hamlet response? Contemplating whether to have them or not.

It isn't compulsory...but it shows that you have a wide knowledge of different interpretations, and have done significant research to form your own interpretation.

Hmm ok, so you would advise in incorporating opinions from known literary figures including their name, then proceed to use their opinion to support your view whether it be to challenge or to agree with what they say?

Yeah that sounds about right. Just make sure you are using it to further your own interpretation..otherwise it's almost useless.

Are you guys doing 1 or 2 orts for your modules? Any idea if it is likely we will get 2? (CSSA)

In advanced (I'm assuming it'll be similar for standard) it has always been "at least one" in the hsc and every year in the CSSA, except last year, where it stated only one (CSSA 2012)

90% of the time it's at least one.

So I prepare for two texts (I have 3 themes, I only use two for the essay).
