Repeating forms?

Anyone else notice that all the text types were a repeat of 2001 HSC? AOS essay, Mod A & B essay & Mod C speech.

Is BOS recycling? working on a 3 yr cycle?

just something curious to note

I think they should ban timelimits for good. Who else was half way through a question with 10 mins to go?
Yeah a couple of people had that problem...I thought there was enough time though. I had five minutes to spare at the end, and read through my stuff again :)

More time would always be gratefully accepted... :) hehehe... theres never enough of it.

If we extended each day by two hours, enabling us to lose several days a year, but gain more 'time' so to say, id be happy ;)

the exam was weird. i think it was a benefit to those who didn't study - the question kept asking for personal interpretations! hopefully the markers do a good job grr. not happy.

i think the trick was to work in as much info as possible, while still stiking to your personal interpretaions

yeah, that's what we were told to do, that's the point of the module - how everyone is affected by everyone else!

Harwood did suck.. I left it til last.. but I think I managed to weave my way around it...

I done 2 poems, 2 readings.. but every so often I'd say some crap like, "this idea is of merit to myself as a Christian or Psychoanalyst" or anything... Hence the context ... lol

:D

Paper 2 sucked so badly.....heres hoping that my AOS will bring me through a little better.... the only question i didnt completely struggle with in paper 2, was the speech..... the other 2 sucked so bad, i only wrote 4 pages for section 1 , and 3 pages for section 2.

how was it personal?? they didnt ask for a personal reflection?? the questions were similarly worded to 2003's and 2002's. If u look at the past years' exemplar responses, you will realise that people just do generic prepared essays 4 each response.
