how prepared r u
I spent most of the holidays practicing writing and making quote notes etc

But I still don't feel confident of being able to write a 1000 word essay in 40mins

I'm thinking of memorising aos creative, module a and module c, and just try to memorise quotes for mod b and aos essay.

You should memorise if you can change your essays in accordance with what the question is asking you and if u can do that then you should have no problems :)

memorise paragraphs and know how to adapt them
yeah I might try paragraph memorisation that for Belonging.

I still feel as though memorising ModA and ModC is possible, at least for my trials.

Then for HSC, I'll have a rethink.

Argh isn't English so frustrating hahaha

Don't u prefer writing a new essay rather than memorising? I get anxious if I memorise essays because I start to write them word for word rather than changing them to fit the question

Yes! :(

I hate how they're all bunched into a 2 week period whereas in the hsc it's spread over 4 weeks.
Probably can only manage like 3-4 past papers for each subject :(
And I also have to study UMAT on top of this...

I hope I can survive this month.
