    Question 1

    There are psychiatric wards all over the country that go through various forms of paranoia induced by excessive HSC study of "the J-word." The patients generally come in three forms: the physical, who refuse to go anywhere because it could be construed as 'moral growth,' 'more important than the...

    Question 3 |4 | 5

    ^actually, you don't need to go through the whole 'the responder has learnt' routine. And you're right; doing that would be worse than writing in first person, because it has the same effect, takes longer to write and is utterly banal. So congratulations, you have acquired a point. Pity its not...

    Question 3 |4 | 5

    The obvious problem with writing any essay in first person is that no teacher, anywhere, wants to hear your opinion. Face it. Writing in third person relegates the teachers to reading secondhand (poorly disguised) plagiarised material from multiple sources, and occasional opinions carefully...

    Anyone could not sleep properly last night?

    I'm amazed at the overall very poor quality of education withing our schools. I would have thought that by now your teachers would have told you how to proceed in order to achieve your full capacity. Do little or no study, but instead post innappropriately on related forums in order to increase...

    how many pages for section 3 (extended response)?

    I see what you mean, Schroedinger. I've gotta pick the people who count, and let the love enter their lives. Does that mean...does that mean its morally acceptable for me to flame and eat alive anyone who I don't think has the power to affect me? That's what we're saying here, isn't it? See, I...

    how many pages for section 3 (extended response)?

    I'm sorry Schroedinger, its just....well, you seemed to have such a negative attitude. Do you think...I could have been as bad as you? I'm sorry, man, I didn't mean to sink to your level - the level you seem to be rising from. I'm not sure you're serious, so I won't say any more for now, man.

    how many pages for section 3 (extended response)?

    OMG Schroedinger I have SEEN like, all ur previous posts and I have to say, do you have an ATTITUDE problem? I mean, the HSC should be a collaborative effort between all students to do as well as we can, right? You fill these forums with NEGATIVE ATTITUDES and VOTE LIBERAL. I think you should be...

    How did u link Q3 with yourself?

    ^ Schroedinger, don't you know ANYTHING AT ALL? Have you not read the syllabus, that masterpiece? It CLEARLY and simply states that, to achieve a band six, some or all of these elements must be incorporated into your story: -female, crippled, lesbian, muslim OR jewish OR 'Iraquoid'...

    how many pages for section 3 (extended response)?

    I rock the world. I only wrote between 5 and 6 pages for each one, but I shall do magnificently. Because my writing is cogent, elegant, and...fantastic. Unlike yours, obviously. I love me.

    How do you study?

    I like playing metal when I'm doing maths, because the screaming and the mindless noise blends so seamlessly with definite integrals and 3D trig... But silence and desklamps go with every other subject.

    How is the class of 05 coping with the pressure of HSC

    Yeah I reckon the way to run your HSC successfully is just to cut out all the crap you do that really only bores you. Like, try to make everything you do the stuff you really enjoy. I'm working more this year than any other year - well, duh - but I'm actually having more fun than I've had in any...

    how did you come up with your idea?

    I really wouldn't worry about that. I haven't changed my idea so much as its evolved. It now bears as much resemblance to its original form as...well, as a phoenix to a flaming chicken. I haven't researched anywhere near enough....*whine whine* but looking around these forums you find that many...

    How the crap do u research into the short story medium?

    Yeah, on that, one of the guys who did really well in 4u from our school came back and gave us advice for the research... Basically, it boiled down to this. Your research doesn't need to be more than superficially related to your story. But then you come along with multiple colour pens and a...
