    General Thoughts: Economics

    I agree with the short answer part. Drew on lots of aspects of the syllabus I feel. Probably one of the hardest economics papers I've seen, if only because of how abstract it was.

    For mum. The one and only.

    When's she turning 50? For my dad's 40th we did 40 days of gifts leading up to it, mainly little things but cool stuff too.

    Got the marks he deserved basically, just wasn't as good as he thought he was. Makes me shit it bc I got high estimates of 98+ like he did and getting a 94.x would really rek my hopes of studying overseas, and I've already spent something like 300 bucks on application fees, so it'd fuck me...

    100% total internal mark?

    Doesn't matter if you have an internal mark of 100 or an internal mark of 6, as long as you come first, your internal assessment mark will be the highest examination mark of your cohort. So if you get 95 in the exam and beat the rest of the cohort you'll have an internal mark of 95 and...

    Yep, it's not just the physical tiredness from cranking out 20 or so pages but also the mental comedown after hyping yourself up for it. Go to bed early tonight and wake up fresh for tomorrow (at least, that's my plan!)

    General thoughts: English Advanced Modules Paper 2

    Exactly this. It's a comparative study of text and context. Not dealing with context means you're not answering half the module. The comparison with Mod B and textual integrity is not the same: If Mod B was a 'Close Study of Textual Integrity' then there would be parallels.

    Advanced or Standard English?

    Taking a look at my mates standard paper, they don't ask for as an in-depth analysis and the ideas they discuss are less specific. They also don't study a shakespeare. If you have a high 70% average I recommend you stay in Advanced. With enough work, you can push it up to a low eightys which...

    Ipt aligning ?

    Your reported Assessment mark would be whatever the highest external mark in the exam was (provided that isn't you). For example, if the highest mark in your class was a 99, you would recieve an internal assessment mark of 99. If it was a 83, you would receive an internal assessment mark of 83...

    Why is standard English considered so bad?

    When they refer to a raw mark, they are not talking about raw as in not yet aligned, but unscaled, aka the marks you're given from results day. These 'raw' marks are then turned into scaled mark out of 50, which is aggregated in the calculation of the ATAR.

    I'm guessing he forgot to take into account reading time.
