I legitimately lolled for a good minute, nicely done

I guess we're supposed to use 1992 but I find that rather stupid considering how heavily context is emphasised in this module. The directors cut makes one or two scene changes but other that that the movie is the same as the early 80's release, not early 90's. If it were 1992 then the societal...

I've been viewing a few 'A-A+ range' essays for Module B, in particular speeches, and I've noticed that some of them use personal pronoun in sending their message across, i.e. "I believe this is important because...". I know the markers are after an 'informed, personal understanding' but is...

If they ask for one related text in AOS I'm screwed. Same deal if they ask for 2 in Mod C. On the other hand, I'd actually be stoked if they asked us to write a feature article for the AOS 'essay'...so much more freedom and personally I think it's easier to write being that it's a genuine...

Re: The Loaded Dog: HSC exams - Sydney Morning Herald My dad dropped out at 16 and makes a more than comfortable living as an electrical operator, so I guess I'm lucky in the sense that he knows first hand what is possible without even getting a HSC...and that was 36 years ago. I do see what...

School ranking is ~200. These are raw marks, we have been given aligned marks but I'd rather post raw cause it confuses the hell out of me. The rankings are final assessment ranks. Adv English - 83/100, 4/40 Ancient - 90/100, 3/65 Geography - 90/100, 1/25 Industrial Tech - 87/100, 2/40 Music...

I wanna get a part-time job, travel and document through photos. Then hopefully head off to uni in 2014. Or not.

I got through 980 in 30 minutes for my trials yesterday in creative writing, and about 1350 in 50 minutes for the essay. The creative writing was totally memorised to the word though. The essay wasn't obviously, but I had memorised a lot from it so I had reference points to go to. I know they...

Excuse my stupidity here, but how excactly do schools decide what assessment score you get? One of my teachers always says "your mark doesn't matter, only the rank" when referring to assessment tasks (eg I was bummed about getting 17/20 but it ranked 1st so apparently that was as good as 20/20)...

I think it's ~200 or so. Let's just say 200.

Hey guys, another ATAR estimate thread here. I'm aiming for an ATAR of about 82-83, or just somewhere between 80 and 85 really. It's close to the trials and everything and I know I'll probably get the old "wait until trials and re-evaluate" but i'm just after some answers anyway. So here are my...

Thanks for the replies. I think not learning the syllabus will be a problem - no joke, we don't learn it. Our teacher refuses to teach it. The ONLY thing we've done this year thus far is work on the Major Work. Literally. The first assessment was worth 30% which sucked, but the worst part was he...

Hey guys, First off, I'm aiming for an ATAR of 85. I was sure it was achievable, but now I'm starting to second guess...Mainly due to the fact I chose Industrial Technology and Music 1, both really bad scaling subjects that I think will haunt me... Anyway, what really concerns me is that in...
