    BOS Showcase: 2009 Major Works

    Just over 5 1/2 hours left :) Good luck to all EE2ers! No matter what mark you got, be proud of what you have achieved - its not something every second person would have been able to do. Plus, you get to brag that you've written a novella, or created a film, or are a poet or a playwright...

    Romanticism, people!

    I kept misspelling stuff because I was writing faster than I was thinking. That's a first. My HSC is the marker's problem now :)

    Personalities....

    I did Gorby and basically interpreted 'times' to mean many times to which I connected his decisions and what he said in media to be a product of his experiences. Hopefully a 25-er, because I put a whole lot of effort into that!

    Someone has to ask it....

    Personality question killed my hand for Cold War. When I saw it.. "Their whole freaking life?"

    When is your last exam, and what are doing right after it?

    Last exam is tomorrow. I will go have lunch outside, come home and watch the totally, completely legal movie collection I have. Then party on Thursday when my friends catch up to me :D

    Modern game

    Berlin Wall! Also, Kennedy's assassination was what I intended, but this is probably more HSC related. 1957

    Tables turned on HSC students (SMH)

    Students are told - at least in my school - that they're taking a huge risk by pre-preparing. Our assignments are written so they deliberately throw us off the prepared response track - we had obscure quotations, a listening task to use as a related text, extracts as creatives which we had to...

    Modern game

    Defence Education Act 1958 - $2bn by America on its education system to catch up. 1963 If exam supervisors who breathe loudly and look over your shoulder as you're intensely doing your work come up to you, as happened to me yesterday for 10 minutes, just think of it as an important historical...

    Your Picks for MH questions for 09 paper

    Not crises! Pleeease Arms Race and Space Race.

    Modern game

    Racial Discrimination Act 1975 in Australia. Nothing for the Cold War, sadly :( & god help me for remembering that from Year 10 history. 1957 Good luck everyone. Last words of advice: If you fail to plan, you plan to fail!

    Tables turned on HSC students (SMH)

    I can't ever memorise anything properly, even quotes, so that's out. I know heaps of people that memorise introductions or conclusions or topic sentences and lines of arguments but whole essays? Why not spend that effort actually understanding the content so you can maximise your marks.

    Killed by multiple choice?

    Looks like I made quite a few 'educated' guesses that came out right.

    Polymer Question - PVC

    I did fractional distillation because crude oil is a natural raw material, and they didn't really specify anything apart from that.

    Multiple Choice

    I guessed B too, ha :D I did C first, then crossed it and went for B. Now they'll think I'm super smart!

    Polymer Question - PVC

    I said they used a mould to get the desired shape. Just to be thorough.
