    Controversial Creatives

    Oh, do go on... Also, btw guys, how do you have multiple quotes from people :/

    Images for creative stimulus

    Yeah I guess. But I think in 2012, I had to randomly work grass into my story. Since that was the most appropriate image.

    Controversial Creatives

    Damn, disappointing. And the teachers had such a good opportunity to be snarky and make puns! About how he marrowly escaped writing a distasteful story, because then she would have to chew him out... I'm so very sorry.

    Controversial Creatives

    Well, legend, I have to say that your language control is good, and at the very least your idea is certainly original . If I were you, I would provide more detail about Dolores - how does the molestation make her feel? How does it impact her sense of belonging to her family?

    is physics as hard as people make it out to be ?

    I found with Phys it was more important to understand the concepts and why it works. Then you can use it to explain applications and practicals It's not like chem, where you simply HAVE to remember a large quantity of chemical equations and data

    Controversial Creatives

    Hehe, the first time I read that I thought "who gets murdered during the HSC?" o_O Poor guy probably got a paper cut or something

    rumours of a feature article?

    I think it's too late to start preparing for that. Keep with the story, and on the day, if it's a feature article the question is likely to be very specific and EVERYBODY will have to come up with something on the spot.

    I haven't anything to say to the OP (sorry), but do they seriously do the above?

    Images for creative stimulus

    My short story is a refugee story, so quite a lot of the symbolism is based off the water and the ocean (being able to see the new home across it, etc). But what if I have difficulty moulding the stimulus (e.g.; if it was a picture of an argument) to the story. I hope its a quote, myself.

    Freaking out about creative

    Oh, and avoid teenage angst like the plague.

    Freaking out about creative

    Huh. I was told not to do sci-fi or romance. Instead, we were told we could write about things such as family conflict and such, as long as we did it with humour and pathos. My story is a refugee story, but it has a fairly unusual writing style which makes it more unique. I did English...

    2nd Related Question

    Pick a artsy film that's had a lot of study like Gattaca, so you can not only look at it yourself, but read study guides.

    How many papers?

    Pssh, I barely care about English anymore. I've already going to get (90+% chance) into the science degree I want, and I want to do really well in relevant subjects - i.e.; maths and science - so I can get scholarships and such. Anyone feel stuvac is too long? I've been studying English for...

    Short Answer Advice

    I know, I do that sometimes too. But I always think the techniques I see are too obvious, but apparently that's okay. Tone is pretty much half of what I write about with written texts, although I can only see two-four techniques per text. Also, that's a really good way to frame it...

    Short Answer Advice

    Sort of last minute here, I've been practising a bit before hand, but short answer is always my weakest section (especially the last few damn). Any final advice on interpreting sources or the last questions. I can never really SEE the techniques in the texts, even though I look :mad: Thanks

    How many papers?

    I go to a good school (top 10) so average here is always a really high band 5. If the essay was out of twenty, the average would be 16-17. I generally average 17-18, but I haven't been studying that hard at school this year. I sort of lost all my marks in the early part of the year in the short...

    How many papers?

    I've done about four English papers (2013-2011) and one from a textbook. My short story and essay have been pretty much identical, and just a matter of adapting to the question. I'll be doing some more short answer practices and module essays tomorrow and the day after. Is this enough :/...
