    most annoying person in an exam room

    yeah, i guess that would work... i know what i'll do - i'm going to stake out the exam room before the next exam, identify all the noisy writers in the room and leave a business card on their desk: "to avoid death stares from the 89 other students in this room - WRITE SCRIPT!!!!!" :p bloody...

    most annoying person in an exam room

    i finished english paper 2 with one minute to go, but that's hardly "early." my watch just happened to be a minute faster than the supervisor's!! i hate noisy writers. i find the best way to stop noisy writing is to have a layer of paper under the one you're writing on to absorb the noise!! :)

    Spanish Cont.

    well it wasn't entirely helpful - there were about two words i'd never heard or seen before and they weren't in my dictionary, so i translated everything around it to get the general idea. i tried not to rely on it too much, though!! i suppose seeing as though you go to open high school for...

    your HSC timetable

    i'm happy with mine. this week was probably the *worst* (mon, tues, wed) next week it's more spaced out (mon, wed, fri) and then i've got a 13 day break until my last exam on the 11th. i was exhausted after english yesterday, though!! i pity you people having exams crammed so close...

    Congratulations Class of 2004.

    i feel sorry for the yr 12ers next year. because they've seen what journeys is all about, they might be a little more harsh with the questions, especially if everyone does resonably well this year!! :) sorry 05ers!!

    HSC Story on 7 and 9

    i thought it was funny how the minister for education was shown on one of the channels warning of cramming... this being the day before the first english exam!! after the first exam, the media don't care about it until the results are released.... then they go on about the "hard tests" and the...

    5pm news

    yeah i saw it. it was basically some knowledgable english lady teacher going on about personal pronouns and such. there are so many possible answers, so don't get too concerned!! :)

    They dont even check IDs????

    my mum used to do supervising for the HSC until a few years ago. the clipboard they carry around has a plan of the exam room and they have to write which student number is where so that if there is any suspected copying/cheating, they can look up the seat plan and see where the people were...

    Why is there no HSC Advice line for S&C?

    yeah, but what's substantial?? ;) maybe it's because sac is made up of depth studies, and they figure that since not everyone does the same topics, it would be hard to help. and with the concepts, they probably just assume you'll look them up in the syllabus or in a textbook... :)

    Last Minute Study Techniques...

    i hate projectile motion.... probably because i don't understand physics. i used to hate parametrics but i got full marks on the question in my trial, so it's now amongst my better 3u topics! :)

    Do you do more units of maths than english?

    i did 3 unit maths and advanced english. i like the 2 unit maths course better than the extension unit, though... i think 2 and a 1/2 units of maths would be perfect for me!! but i can say that i have never failed a maths test - my lowest was 51% my school voluntarily put me down to do...

    Croatian Continuers

    hahaha i don't do croatian but i found i jumped too!! i'd be concentrating on writing down answers and i'd be half way through one when the guy started talking again. i looked up to see if the supervisor had seen me and she just had this big grin on her face! how embarrassing!! :) did you...

    NO more english lessons.. EVER

    gave my responses to my teacher... as well as a lot of notes and things. not so creative! i can't believe english is over. all week i've been saying things like "i'll never be able to watch a movie in peace ever again!" and while i'll enjoy being free from all the analysing, i'm going...

    DOOMED - Advanced paper was EVIL

    i was thinking the only reason i sucked at king lear was because i hadn't overly prepared for it. but now i see that everyone had the same problem (i know this sounds bad, please try to understand where i'm coming from!) i'm actually feeling a little better!! i did 7 pgs for mod A, 5 for mod...

    Hsc English Timing Is A Joke!!!!!!!!!

    that's why you really had to stick to those time limits. no good doing a brilliant essay for module X if module Y is not attempted! you should've seen my hand after this morning's exam - looked like a scene from a horror movie - all shriveled up, cramped elbow, blue ink all down the side...
