who is proliferating the information that mod c will be a compulsory 20 mark discursive? apparently it got leaked?

 

[appleali]

i struggle sm with actually identifying the techniques and finding proper evidence with my overall idea that all go together, i was so good at short answer in yr 11 and now i can barely do it

short answer is waffle they want to give you the marks as long as you get the quote + technique + analysis

 

[riirii]

no nothing got leaked, just predictions

for 3-4 yeah but that wont get u full marks in a 5 marker, with each new quote you need to provide a new insight and vary what youre saying or else they wont reward you necessarily if you repeat the same stuff. the criteria differs for higher marks. the marking criteria is pretty vague but the main difference is "skilfully' v 'effectively' and 'detailed analysis and 'well chosen'

 

[hscccc]

if you guys are worried abt short answers go watch jeddle's videos, they explain them really well - especially the 6 marker comparatives (which we havent had in the hsc in a bit)

this is a really great section to maximise your mark in the paper only through a little prior prep!!! also, if you got trials feedback for short answers go back and see where you actually went wrong

Oh, for you, I would've done whatever (uh-huh)
And I just can't believe we ain't together (yo, uh-huh)
And I wanna play it cool (yo), but I'm losin' you (uh-huh)
I'll buy you anything (yo), I'll buy you any ring (uh-huh)
And I'm in pieces (yo), baby, fix me (uh-huh)
And just shake me 'til you wake me from this bad dream (yo, uh-huh)
I'm goin' down (oh), down, down, down (uh-huh)
And I just can't believe, my first love won't be around, and I'm like
"Baby, baby, baby, oh"
Like, "Baby, baby, baby, no"
Like, "Baby, baby, baby, oh"
I thought you'd always be mine, mine
"Baby, baby, baby, oh"
Like, "Baby, baby, baby, no"
Like, "Baby, baby, baby, oh"
I thought you'd always be mine, mine

we're witnessing bro's crashout

[Ksalu]

honestly, for comp. I feel like the best prep is a good night's rest beforehand. Helps you think more clearly during the exam

 

[riirii]

Yes

[aqwerty13402]

bro my prescribed text is on war, and my discursive is on intergenerational conflicts
but yeah taking a test is too meta i think staying away from like school or assessments is probs a good idea
