does anyone know if for reflections in mod C we can be inspired by books other than prescribed mod C texts? do we even have to reference our prescribed mod c text if the reflection doesnt explicitly say to do so?
My teacher (HSC marker for like 10 yrs) said if the question says nothing about prescribed texts or specifies "reflect on inspo from MODULE C texts" then in both scenario's use evidences from the mod c texts.

BUT if it says "reflect on inspo from prescribed texts" but doesn't specify module C, then you can use other module texts but try to use atleast 1 example from a mod c text as well. But it's not necessary to use mod c.

But don't use other texts that are not mod c unless its like a literary device for e.g. allusion or intertextuality.

wtf 12 poems??!!!! I think I might be doing this text noooooooooo. And if they don’t give an extract this year they’ll prob do it next.
i actually love the texts themselves (mainly plath i’m an avid ted hughes hater) and they’re really interesting to learn/analyse but yeah the fact that there’s 12 of them sucks 😞

How do u remember 12 poems. I don’t think I’ll even remember the names of all of them or I’ll get mixed up with them. That’s cruel for them to do. For other poems like Keats are there 12

how does the whole early entry thing even work, i go to an australian school from hk (aishk) and we've applied for early entry through UAC and VTAC but nothing so far has came through. Do applications work faster with agents? out of all my friends only one of them have recieved offers (uncond)

most of the useful early offers are applied directly on the uni’s website e.g macq, uts, unsw and anu. I’m not sure if they’re applicable to Hong Kong tho.
