    creative writing/prescribed texts

    The creative questions for extension are very original and don't ever follow a strict pattern. Its supposed to be unpredictable to really engage and challenge you because that's the whole point of extension. I think in terms of that question, making sure you refer to the setting and integrate...

    Exam technique questions

    During reading time, I skim through Q11-14 and make note of any questions that seem particularly difficult or require extra thinking time. After I do a quick skim, I do the same with MCQ. I'm a pretty fast reader, so I return to the questions I initially found hard and see if I can figure out...

    Extension 1 HSC 2014 Prediction

    Have they ever "punished" MX1 students before? I'm sure BOSTES wouldn't be that cruel and make the paper more favoured towards MX2 students I also have a strong feeling trig is involved in the last question and circle geometry this year will be a pain

    Technique?

    Aural imagery (just to be specific) Visceral imagery (men digging bodies) Graphic description Depends on the context, you can also use stuff like inclusive pronoun of "our" because its a shared experience of the horrors etc

    Audio technqiues

    Tone Modulation/pitch Background/non-diegetic music (or lack thereof) Tempo Volume (loudness/softness) Emphasis (not sure if this is an actual technique, but sometimes certain syllables might be stressed to enunciate certain concepts) Pauses These are just off the top of my head

    Managing time...

    Have you considered sleeping a bit later during the week? If you sleep at about 9:30, you get an extra hour to do things everyday and that can give you 4-5 hours extra a week :) Sacrificing 1 hour of sleep a day won't be too much of a detriment (I think I was running on 5-7 hours of sleep a...

    How accurate is predicted atar usually?

    Often highly inaccurate unless you have very consistent results to base the estimates on.

    ATAR estimate with predicted external marks

    You're probably looking at an ATAR around 70-80. Depends on how they align it this year.

    So overhwhelmed by what to do for English

    Hey :) I did 3 units of English for the HSC and it can be a bit daunting but here are some of my tips: For both English Advanced and Extension - Read all your prescribed texts before you learn them in class. That way, you know what's going on and you can develop more insight, find new evidence...

    Poll: Difficulty of 2013 vs 2014 paper

    The algebra I used for conics was pretty neat, it wasn't too much of a trek as what I anticipated it to be. IMO Q16 of this year was harder than last years? But maybe its because I cannot do integration inequalities to save my life LOL And NGL freaked out a bit at Q11 when had to use IBP hahahaha
