That's highly unlikely as I think they only do that in Module B. However, I would recommend having a condensed understanding of each poem just in case and understand the links between the poems (and perhaps draw those links in your essay), as this shows you've considered the poems as a whole (as...

As other posters have said above, the rubrics are what you will be marked against and are a definite read. I would also recommend reading the Prescriptions for 2015: http://www.boardofstudies.nsw.edu.au/syllabus_hsc/english/eng-std-adv-prescriptions-2015-20.html . These provide a brief...

Yeah, you can write in both present and past depending on what you're talking about. For example, you can say "I stand before you today...." (present) and you can also say "When I was a young child...". In terms of format, it's pretty simple, like any text you write - intro, body sections...

Yeah, it's quite difficult to create a generic essay for this Module. Perhaps review the past essay questions and even just think/plan how you would tackle them to cover your bases...

Interesting! I've never thought of Haddon's The Curious Case of the Dog in the Night-Time in that way before. However, note that it is currently a Standard English Mod B prescribed text and the school/teacher may have a rule against using syllabus texts as related material.

Yeah the school reference is probably not the best, especially as it's been a few years since you've left. However, if you don't have any other referees available, then yes - just put "available upon request". It also depends who you are applying to and whether they specifically asked for...

If you're interested in anterograde amnesia, a FANTASTIC related text would be The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat by Oliver Sacks. This is a collection of short non-fiction 'stories' written by psychologist Sacks. The short stories The Lost Mariner and A Matter of Identity are about people...

Yeah, as the posters above said, it's not recommended that you memorise your essay word for word (rather remember key phrases/arguments, techniques, quotes etc) as you'll be able to adapt better to the question if you have something more flexible committed to your memory. Also, you should ask...

Soulful is correct. In addition, the statement is suggesting that the significant different in textual form (film vs novel) enhances our interest in the parallels. So perhaps think about how, despite the textual form difference (which is quite dramatic, plus all the other changes), a comparison...

Yeah, you should bring along your school books, plus your most recent exams/assessment results so he can get an idea of: 1. What topic you are up to in school 2. What your strengths/weaknesses are You can ask him to explain any errors/low marks you got in your exams/assessments that you don't...

The values you could discuss could be humanity, progress/ambition, duty, power/knowledge, depending on what you feel you can talk most about. In terms of bringing in the social, cultural, historical, personal context discussion, you should be comparing/contrasting the values represented/explored...

You can find the rubrics on the Board website: http://www.boardofstudies.nsw.edu.au/syllabus_hsc/english-std-adv.html However, since you're in preliminary, those probably won't be particularly relevant. It depends how your school has chosen to conduct your preliminary (yr 11) year, I believe.

The structure of prion can be described as an abnormally folded protein. They do not reproduce, but can propogate by changing other proteins to have the same altered protein structure. Sorry don't know about size for them. The structure of protozoa can be described as single-celled eukaryotic...

Strawberrye's response is spot on. Essentially, you continually write/develop a strong essay, using the rubric dot points to ensure that you understand and cover off on what the module is about conceptually. You then practise adapting this essay to various essay questions (which would be based...

I finished my undergrad Law/Arts at UTS in 2011 and am back now doing Masters (LLM). Internships - yes, you have to take the initiative to search them out yourself. The uni doesn't organise these for you. Job prospects - are pretty bad, as there are too many law graduates these days...

Yeah, that type of opening is more suited to formal speeches that you would, say, do in earlier school years. You should aim for something more inspiring or persuasive (ie, a strong thesis).

Extension 2 isn't something I would do for the marks/scaling. You should do it if you actually enjoy writing and want to work on something as a 'major project' for a whole year. It's only worth 1 unit, but the work is substantial and, if you get really into it, you'll be spending a lot more...

Re: HELPRecommend any good Belonging visual text with Skrzynecki's Immigrant Chronicl There's tons of possible related texts out there. Maybe narrow it down to - are you looking for artworks or films etc?

Maybe you can put a twist on the notion of "connections with a community" by exploring an unusual sort of community - e.g. religious community, sporting community, online community? Think about how a sense of community can be created - shared experience, common interests? There's all sorts of...
