Re: Finished! Congrats on finishing unscathed! :) I finish next Friday as well. *tackles Tanzin* :D

Definitely agreed. I studied quite a bit, and I got in there and my confidence went poof. For Question 28 I just talked about the changing nature of markets. Then I got out of the hall at the end, looked in my textbook, found all the social, cultural, legal, economic, etc. factors and literally...

First of all: calm down. There is no standard way to start your journal - the other person who did EE2 in my year started hers with nothing but the date and then printed out web pages that related to her central concept. I started mine differently. My teacher gave me a sheet for character...

Same. O_O Eeek.

Ditto, dude. Ditto. :mad1:

Social conventions can get you a lot of marks, though - like you can talk about the whole relationships dependent on wealth, status and influence (if you did Austen/Heckerling), and then relate to marriage and love and whatever else Austen jammed in there but obviously didn't intend on her book...

Same. I'm only doing 10 units. Blargahafafkhafkjf. I've got Math, Bio & EE1 next week. I'm writing up notes the afternoon after the Bio exam, and then having in-school lesson with teacher to re-evaluate everything and go over loads of crap, etc. etc.

:rofl: Meh. I'd be happy with 40/60, I have a feelingg I'll lose a fair amount of marks in each module. Blearghaakfakfjsfkjfhkjaafishnuts.

Doesn't the question specify that you do at least one emotion that's significant in at least two texts? So wouldn't you have to find a common emotion between the two and discuss that? Or I might be wrong and misinterpreted the question. O_O

They will only get marked on the first two that they mention, so it creates an even playing field for all those who did no more than two. I did Emma/Clueless. I selected mainly theme stuff - talked about the superficial values and delusions about existence for Emma and Cher mostly (which ties...

I did the emotions of passion (love) and devastation (loss or sadness) with Prize-Giving and The Glass Jar as my focus poems - I initially tried out devastation and loss as two separate emotions, but then realised that they correlated too much, and there was more reference to passion in both...

Lol @ that. Yeah, that's what I was thinking too. Bleargh. Goodbye Band 6. *drops it down the well* At least the false sense of security from the AoS paper was carried on through, so there wasn't any particular panic, at least amongst my Advanced cohort.

Best advice I can give you, that I was given myself at a lecture last year when I started EE2: Avoid teenage angst & suicide stories, unless you can pull it off immaculately and can avoid cliche's. With that said, though, general consensus is that you write a story centring around ideas and...

I often wonder if it takes more effort for them to write lyk dis all d tym than it does just to spell correctly and use proper grammar & punctuation. If it does, they're stupid. If it doesn't ... it's obviously morphed into a first language. I have a feeling there's something tricky behind them...

THEY DIDN'T SPECIFY ONE. I shit frisbees when I saw they didn't specify one. Was so happy. How did everyone go? :D

I bloody loved this question. I incorporated the question into my thesis, expanding on how Austen used narrative techniques with the prose medium versus Heckerling's film techniques, etc. Then did a paragraph for each context - i.e. Regency England & post-modern 20th Century society, comparing...

It was nice - the questions were so general that I actually managed to fit in all three modules for an all-round finished job (except Powerplay, but I almost finished my conclusion, so ... hrrm).

Give a shout-out if you did Transformations for Module A, people! I personally thought this question was easy to complete - it was easy to link to, didn't require a personal response, and was generalised enough to not make me run out of the room waxing lyrical about my 0% sanity. Thoughts...

While there are limited questions that can be asked on Harwood in the exam, there is just as likely a chance that they'll ask something like "the enduring nature of Gwen Harwood's poetry is that it appeals to different audiences. Discuss the validity of this statement ..." as there is of being...

My thoughts also. I think that the best of both worlds would earn a full three marks. So, discuss the instances of contrast presented in the text, and extract techniques to back things up. I just used the word juxtaposition with each example and whatever. Talked about the personal tone of the...
