    Continue music...?

    Does your teacher also pressure you to do a grade a year? (or 6 months like mine did for 7th grade >=[ )

    cross-institutional study

    thanks! I checked the policy but I don't understand all the terminology: 1. The applicant has completed 48 credit points towards the award course in which they are enrolled 2. The award course cannot be completed without cross-institutional study 3. The unit is in an approved subject area, and...

    Creative - 'wingin' it'

    hi amour, think of some basic idea where someone transitions from not belonging to belonigng, just because you don't want to blank out on the day! I memorised one for the trial but the question was so specific I did wing it... I kind of use the same character in all my practice ones so I don't...

    Continue music...?

    Tell your teacher you want to do 8th grade after you've finished the HSC. That's what I did. My practise has been really sporadic and I'm always using exams as an excuse. I'll have time after the HSC though. This is even though I did music for the HSC, but the HSC music performances have come...

    A painting as a related text?

    What do you think of using a painting as a related text? Who has experiences with this? I mean for belonging

    English Extension 2! Where to start?

    Yes you should put in techniques, especially narrative techniques e.g. non-linear story line. The wikipedia page has loads of examples. Do mention metaphors/imagery etc. in your journal. It's english so this is always appreciated. These often helped my writing skills in a general sense rather...

    Conflicting perspectives

    use two. Also there's conflicting perspectives in almost anything. Don't think it has to be political to be a conflicting perspective.

    Should English be compulsory??

    Is there a way to do analysis in a 'speech' style? I know most people would just adapt the intro and conclusion to address an audience and change the register, but is there even a style you use to adapt the 'quote-technique-effect' scaffold? Instead of saying 'composer' uses 'technique' in 'this...

    How messy is your handwriting allowed to get in english?

    Hi I think this is easy to read and also it gets larger as you go down, so maybe you write faster when you write larger? I'm only guessing because if you timed yourself you'd be trying to finish it as fast as possible and people tend to speed up at the end. A lot neater than my handwriting and...

    Should English be compulsory??

    They need a subject that everyone does, and English is the yardstick. If it were any other subject there'd be lots of complaints as well.

    Making up a related text

    It hinges on the skill of the person doing it. The fact that a text is invented does not necessitate a poor mark. An unconvincing argument, however, does.

    Blogging

    The only interesting ones I've read were Bloggers. I don't know about Tumblr, it depends on what you want to do. Though the ones I've read always have next to no visitors and I find them because I type something specific into google to read about people who do/are interested in it. One was...

    No future goals...

    Weird thing I noticed at my vet's was that the apprentices/beginners were always really enthusiastic, but the older vet was always quickest to suggest we just 'put down' our pets whenever we brought them there. Anyway I talked to other people who went there and it turned out he just did that to...

    ATAR Aim & desired uni course

    Re: What course are you hoping to do in 2013? why does the majority want to do medical?

    No future goals...

    What I did is looked for: what jobs are linked with this area of interest. So in a sense I worked backwards, I found a job that I loved the sound of, and I mean the essence of it and what you do every day you 'work'. Then I found out what courses I needed to do to be qualified and voila uni...

    No future goals...

    the course descriptions I've read have been so vague! But I'm sure it's different depending on what subject you pick. Nobody is ever going to be perfectly happy, so I think you shouldn't feel like there's a perfect course. At the same time, it has to serve your interests at least to an extent...

    No future goals...

    I'm not all that sure if saying 'it's fine not to know' actually makes you feel any better. I know it didn't really help me when I was unsure. Because while it's comforting, as soon as the question comes up again you feel irked again. Do research into jobs to find out what they're like once...
