    Confused which college to choose for ANU?

    I'm currently at a Unilodge (Davey Lodge), personally I love it. Definitely getting better on the community side this year. It's one TV per apartment, so studios get their own, but 5 shares have the TV in the common area, etc.

    Predictions for 6/7 marker questions this year?

    I'm guessing a big mark question on Nuclear chemistry, just got a feeling In the last few years they've asked for an Australian scientist in biology, so also predicting that in this year or the next few. We could just talk about Alan Walsh and AAS though?

    How many times you failed your P test?

    Did anyone else answer the wrong question?

    Best way is just to forget about the English exam until you get your results :) Doesn't matter now, can't change what you did. But as long as the question was similar and you did a few good paragraphs, you should get okay marks for it.

    Dear BOS

    Last year they only gave excerpts of the specified poem/speech/whatever in Mod B. You had to refer to the whole poem/speech/whatever though

    Predictions for Speeches Module B question?

    Really doubt they will specify, I'm not worried.
  8. M

    Only 3 speeches?

    Personally I doubt they'll do a question the same as last years, but just in case, PM me your email and I'll send you some really quick summaries I made of each speech.

    General Thoughts: English Paper 1 (AOS)

    Loved the essay question, fitted perfectly with my essay. Creative was a bit iffy, and short answers were nothing shocking. Overall, a pretty fair test. Almost lol'd when I read Papa though,

    can they prescribe a skrznecki poem?

    From what my teacher says, they won't, as the AOS Question is always for ALL the texts, but stranger things have happened.

    Unlocking 2012 DET Laptops?

    Process is happening soon for everyone I believe. It's awesome, we get a transferable license to the Microsoft products on our laptops.

    HSC Trials Area of Study

    The Machine was actually a good text, tripped up so many people in my class though.

    Who memorises essays for english?

    I'm a bit half half personally, memorise quotes/techniques, occasionally wordings of arguments etc, but generally adapt quotes/techniques I have to a new question everytime. And I know many Band 6's from my school didn't memorise essays.

    Australian Maths Competition 2012 Thoughts

    Think I did reasonably well compared to previous years. Believe I answered 2 of the last 5 questions, which always feels good.

    Module B: Critical study of texts

    For the trials: really depends upon your school. For the HSC: I'd definitely prepare to have to use any of the 7 speeches.

    Can you just discuss 2 poems in Immigrant chronicles in BELONGING ENGLISH.

    My teacher (Senior marker) prefers us to do 3, but 2 is enough if you cover them in enough detail. Which she also said rarely happens.

    Terror Trial Timetables?

    So you can tell a humanities teacher decided my schools timetable, somehow they decided it would be a good idea to put Physics in the morning and chemistry in the afternoon.. Edit: Mind you, a draft version had both English papers on the same day, so that wasn't a smart move either...
