Did Ahenaten. Praying for 20+?? Section A - don't evennn remember...? Section B - Pretty much cried with happiness! Had gone over those EXACT notes earlier that morning so I'm praying for epic brownie points in that section. My officials tombs was kinda wasted though... Sadness. Although...

Minoans = EPIC WIN. When they pulled out Palace Economy I was like YESBITCHYES! Palace economy is about the easiest thing you can talk about apart from craft and industry. Was also pretty stoked about women and buildings - focused on women and religion and was like what other women...

Ehhh. I'll probably band five it. I majorly screwed some parts - CORE (tourism) and NKE (ran out of time) but I'm well satisfied with sections 2&3 so... who knows? =S But, yahh. Hmmmm... Band 5, high? DAMN TOURISM AND STUPID 3 HOUR EXAMS! >=\ Yeah, okay, tourism wasn't THAT bad but I didn't...

They want 25 points of relevant information, length is irrelevant. Although, in saying that, my teacher said they do WANT you to try and fill the entire booklet... =)G'luck in the exam. (God knows I'm going to need it... =| Wahwah.)

Describe, with reference to no texts whatsoever, your joy at finishing highschool English forever... FUCK. YES. 20/20!!!!!!!! LOL - I'm so happy I'm about the explode, hahaha. But, ahem, Ancient History now. Never been so happy to look at my core texbook lol. (Ancient, ftw!!!) =) =) =) =) =) =)...

I got a dismal 38 for trials - I had nooooooooooooo idea when it came to Hamlet, ohgod. Hoping for at least over 45 this time! Pfft. Please? Pleasepleasepleaseplease. English is not my band 6 essay subject, Ancient History is so yahh... Band 5, ftw? =\

Did okay? Filled almost a whole booklet on Hamlet, awesome question - totally suited my thesis/interpretation so yay, devo'ed that I didn't get to a second booklet but, meh. Can't win 'em all.Bladerunner and Frankenstein were, meh, I was pretty much WTF SHITTTTT! when I read it, but I went back...

And I would agree. Quotes = ESSENTIAL. Google quotes if you have to but find them; now.

Those values aren't seen in Frakenstein either! When you think about it, the only person who shows the poor, lonely and frightened creature any compassion is the blind father... =O Shelley is HIGHLY critical of society and prejudice and blahblahblah in Frankenstein, as seen in the treatment of...

Exaggerate their contextual differences? Scott was concerned with globalisation, industrialisation, the rise of corporate America and the MASSIVE population boom - Asian's moving into Western culture, plus there was some others...? Shelley, however, had no idea what most of this stuff was...

Write about the way the text re-presents this information. In other words how it shows or depicts an event/person/whatever. Also, make specific reference to the affect this has upon it's audience. For H+M specifically, you're going to want to talk about how this representation affects history...

Depends on what you say in that amount of words? Most tend to be around 800-1000 though, don't they? Most of the people I know tend to do around the thousand mark. I am an INCREDIBLY SLOW WRITER so I tend to be around 800ish. =(

I find it so incredibly hard to use "I", "My", etcetc in essays! You know, considering the fact that in every single other on we do it's third person based... I think (lol) that, honestly, the markers will realise it is your interpretation of what you have gained from the text, whether you...

My teacher told me that purely the fact that it is still relevant to us today, that as a contemporary society we can learn something from Hamlet, gives it textual integrity. He said that we don't really need to emphasise it throughout the essay, because it'll be clear through our argument... Or...

When asked to write about "at least" one text, that's just code for "write about two or more texts, but for the love of god do at least one". If it asks you to write about "ONE", it means one. If you're worried, consider how that representation of that (whatever it is) effects the responders...
