EE2 is a major work, which can be anything you want, on anything you want, short story, critical response, short film, poety, speeches etc
The major work (not sure on word limit) and a 1500 word reflection statement are externally marked. Theres also a report, viva voce and report that are marked as internal assessments.
Im up for it, anyone else??:)

EE2 is the only part of Year 12 I'm looking forward to. That, and dropping Philosophy.

I can't possibly understand why Maths is getting all the glory with nearly 30% of all votes.

Lame.

Because maths is:

  • Better (it requires logic, unlike the humanities)
  • Relevant (chances are you'll apply it at numerous points throughout your life)

I reckon Philosophy, but its offered through uni's so I dont think - strictly speaking - its a "BOS" course... but other than that, maybe languages. I do Jap :D

fair enough

it won't burn in hell :p
:wave: haha, well just take over the prelim discussion.

I think that the HSC courses of all the subjects are heaps more interesting than the prelim, especially with english ((<3 frontline and BR & BNW) haha, id be killed for saying this) and biology (lots more genetics stuff!!!!).

But ancient has always been awesome...

Economics most interesting by far. The HSC course is just so pratical, and when i read things in the finanical review and hear stuff on the news i actually understand what they mean. Prelim course more theoretical but not bad.

You could say the same for me. We've finished the entire Year 11 Modern History course in two terms, and the information our teacher gives us can sometimes be too brief. We've also started on the Western Front.

wtf! I though you weren't allowed to start the HSC course until term 4.
