Quotes aren't essential for ancient history, Archaeological sources are just as valid :)

I was very pleased (in my immaturity) that I was able to mention brothels in this section. xD For the industry question I talked about how the main industries in P&H were the food industry (talked about how geography effected this and that fishing net source) and the service industry (talked...

I certainly hope so. Pompeii and Herculaneum was relatively easy! I know I stuffed up one mark in the very first question though >.<; Accidently called something the wrong name. Sparta was alright too. The questions were very different from usual, which was good actually, made it new and...

Wow, I didn't realise it was so easy to acheive a band 6. And here I was under the impression that I would need to get 90%+ raw to get a band six. Regardless, I am still hoping that I got 90%+ raw.

You must remember the size of people's handwriting differs.

Pompeii and Herculaneum= Went over the alocated lines :s Sparta= 6 pages Xerxes= 8 pages Greek World 500-440 BC= 7 pages I have fairly small writing though, I write about 10 words per line.

In my response I talked about how The Delian League did not acheive it's supposed aim of uniting Greece together against Persia becase: Greece was already at a state of Peace with Persia. Greece was still divided into two by the Pelopponesian League and the Delian League, and there was quite...

I did question B on the Greek World 500-440 BC, was really easy for me :D Do you think 5 cources was enough to mention though? :s

It's better to do something popular and cliched well then to go out on a limb and try something a little more different and do a terrible job of it. It's used alot because it fits perfectly in with the ideas of this AOS.

I used the picture book The Arrival by Shaun Tan.It's got amazing illustrations and fits in well with Skrzynecki's Immigrant Chronicle.Best thing about it is that it has no words, no quotes to remember, only visual techniques.

My text was about a terminally ill girl who finds belonging among the worlds within books because she does not fit in with the world around her (I made alot of refferences to other texts in there, mostly classics since the markers will more likely have read them). She is waiting alone outside...

You just needed to make it clear within your text what quote you chose to use... usually it helps to use the wording of the quote somewhere in your text. It is important that your refferences to the stimulus are clear, significant and not just vague ones.

We needed a title? Oh dayum.

I was very happy with the stimulus for this. Although, I would have been happy with anything really since I don't use planned creative responses. My story was about 7 pages and I used the second quote for it. Heheh. I actully used the quote as part of the dialogue in my story, I thought it would...

They had it confused with extension 2 english xD

Yeah =) Ooh wow! And thanks for that summer school information! I shall look into it if you think it is useful! Thanks again for all your help. It has really helped to reassure me that I have made the right choice!

Oh wow, that is a big drop! Yeah, the whole university process is really confusing already reading about it, so I already had the mindset that it will be explained properly when I get there. When it comes to Ancient History I am very interested in Egypt (how typical of me) but I do also have an...

Yeah, I read that in the course outline. It was one of the things that drew me to it actually! I am interested in languages, I did japanese all the way up to year 10.

Morning Andrew. xD

Did you just admit to cheating in your year 11 yearlies...? Or were you saying if you did want to cheat it would have been easy...
