its not the same case as paper 2. Paper 2 gets aligned/moderated. Just look at 2002 where they asked you to refer to a specific speech. The people doing cloudstreet didnt have to deal with that, so obviously they did better, because a lot of top students just hadnt done that speech and so they...

my had ups and downs. The kids who took rest time kept talking in the middle so that was distracting, and the examiners got the time wrong (said 10 mins to go when there was 2, so they just randomly said pens down). But also while a little incompetent, they were really nice, the guy kept coming...

aww we werent allowed :/

950word/800word/1600 word. Comprehension could have been more but I got so stuck on text 2! went about 2.5 mins over time. I was planning to go back and write a couple sentances more, but I realised I'd written Victor Skrzynecki instead of Peter skrzynecki (I spent whole morning memorising...

it doesnt matter THAT much that emily dickenson failed (a lot of my cohort were furious about this) because everyone found it hard, so it will probably align better

What techniques did you guys use for the second text? I stretched it hard...personal pronouns, ellipsis and first person, juxtaposition (weak), contrast was all I could see! (praying that that's enough but doubt it). I hate that text soo much.

God this literally WAS my story. I always been a pessimistic person but after that exam, i have a new outlook on life xD. Seriously when I saw it, I couldn't stop smiling, it was like they read my creative already. (It contains memories of both a farm (only change was the flowers from blue to...

Am I the only one who actually wishes they finished on the 11th? I finish on 2nd (chem) but I'd rather have the extra 9 days of study!!!

This is the one subject I can't find info on. Any ideas?

For English, Paper 1 and Paper 2 respectively. For paper 1: I was going to read two of the comprehension texts for 5mins to get a gist, then spend the next 5 planning my essay. Then after the essay I would do the comprehension and then move onto the creative last For paper 2: I was...

I am stressing because I want my course so badly! And I know there alternate pathways but after all this work I don't care I don't want to deal with alternate pathways I just want my stupid course.

ill probs sit on girlfriends doorstep apologizing for completely replacing her with textbooks. Then im gonna get some sour gummy worms, and a 2L diet coke, and watch the rugby semi-finals and final that I missed because of stupid HSC. Then im gonna get more sour gummy worms, more coke, rewatch...

Hi, in module B can they ask us to use a specific speech? They did in 2002

Wouldn't asking for a specific speech completely undermine the process? I mean surely that would allow a lot of the differentiation to be based on luck rather than proficiency at english.

sigh...... please post your school rank

This. Suu Kyi should be a staple as it is the most wide ranging speech. After that Sadat, Bandler and Pearson offer you a lot of viable options. The rest, really are just a liability.

where'd kayla go??
