    Uh...Wow.

    I put that it was an artery because i thought that the blood was flowing from the artery to the vein- but i can't remember. I wish they'd asked us to label a capillary instead

    Is History Extension hard???

    Yes. You look at buckets of historians but now what they reserached, what they wrote. The case study is good because you actualy get to learn about a historical topic

    Uh...Wow.

    yeah i know i finished at three thirty- i only found one question hard to answers- the one about two colloids how obvious is the whisked eggs? that question was lame- i talked about mayonnaise and then i said that adding eggs to a salad dressing also made it a colloid- that was the only crap...

    How did go???

    Re: Generl Mathematics Solutions they ask for the maximum she can borrow not the quickest time she can repay. If she repays the loan over 30 years she can afford to borrow 130000 repaying $953.89 per month. these tables are really confusing but I think that thats right- at least i hope that...

    Scaling Modules

    Does anyone know if the board of studies scales each module, not simply the enitre exam mark- the questions this year seemed to be extremly easy for some modules and extremly hard for others.

    Akhenaten

    i thought that the questions were pretty easy, but i didn't really like the Nefertiti questions- all i put was that orginally she was depicted as smaller than Akhenaten in tomb reliefs but after the birth of her first daughter Meritaten she was depicted as his equal in domestic, religious and...

    Your thoughts on the exam

    I did Society in New Kingdom Egypt to the death of Amenhotep III, Akhenaten as my personality and New Kingdom Egypt from Amenhotep III to the death of Ramesses II as my historical period- Seti I was one of the options

    Your thoughts on the exam

    Pompeii was alright but i didn't like the food or forum question- i'd been focusing mainly on other areas, but still i think i would have only lost one or two marks in this section society- new kindom to Amen. III- dead easy, except i was a bit put off by the Karnak question, but still...

    Module B: Critical Study of Texts

    You thought King Lear was hard! what about us stuck with Cloudstreet- we had to talk about the characterisation of Quick- he's not even one of the major, major characters. That was the crapiest question they could have asked- i spent the whole time writing about how much i disagreed with the...

    Section 3

    I did imaginative journeys and thought that the question was great- i'd been studying my texts (Coleridge) in relation to inspiration, imagination and speculation! I agreed with the comment by saying that speculation allowed the imaginative journey to decend from a fictional world and influence...

    Bringing in non-water drinks into HSC exam

    our school told us that we aren't even allowed to take a clear bottle of water in- they said that if we needed some they'd give us a glass -and if we want to leave the exam early we have to leave all our pens and stuff and come back and get them at the end. I don't know where they got our...

    question about creative writing

    this might have been answered somewhere else, but i was wondering if you can write a newspaper article for the creative writing section if it just asks for a general creative work?
