    The General "How did you go in Modern?" Thread

    I've said this in other threads but I might as well post a comment here. Test was fair enough - nothing came from left-field at all and the essay questions were fair. I think I did decently, but my severe lack of study meant that my evidence was quite scarce... Glad it's over though!

    What range do you think you got

    HSC-Rocker: STFU - you're a tool. Plus, I didn't say anything about the difficulty of the test. I was referring to my own preparation, which after all is all you can really blame.

    Who just failed their Modern Exam?

    I think the questions were very fair. However, I started studying for it yesterday morning, and the only thing I learnt for Germany was the fall of Weimar and the rise of Hitler to chancellor, so that was lucky.

    Germany

    What range do you think you got

    I thought it would be a lot worse. I'm usually quite good at modern but since pre-trial I just got lazy and studied the day before both my trial and my HSC. It could've been worse, but I still think i'll get a band 5. Did decently in the rest of my subjects though so as long as I get into my...

    i feel so bleh...

    I got modern and history extension - I used to like them but now I just can't stand them, so I know that will probably detract from my exam performance immensely. I reckon pathways should be mandatory, like you do 5 units of HSC in year 11 and 5 in year 12. I'm not doing it but if they had it...

    Leni Reifensthal....

    I think it's irrelevant whether she was a conscious nazi supporter or an artist, as regardless her impact on society didn't change. She still helped the Nazi cause a great deal and even so, anyone who's seen her films can tell instantly that they reaked of propaganda.
