    Sleepless night

    Oh, so I wasn't the only imbecil who didn't sleep at all before the exams! My friend sitting next to me was going on about how my eyes were all puffy, ahaha I studied my ass off all night long :) Proud much?!

    General Thoughts - English Paper 1 2007

    Section 1: 12/15 Section 2: 11/15 Section 3: 14/15 Roughly 82% is what I'm aiming for... I'm pretty sure text 3 was about Australia and how a dude pictured it from his perspective... Which is why the last question was easier to talk about when comparing with text 1 or text 2. But I didn't...

    ok. can someone give me advice on this essay..

    Alright, the reason why I claimed that it was fair bit short is because you are vaguely touching the surface of the material you want to talk about... I'll give you a metaphorical example. Say you decide to go fishing. The most logical thing to do is make sure your bait (Attached to the...

    Essay feedback

    Personally, I believe you have structured your essay well. Unlike most of the essays I've seen, it's coherent manner does appeal to me. It also appears to me that the level of your understand of your texts meets well beyond the criteria of being satisfactory. However, I don't see any...

    Advice on maximising marks in english paper 1

    In terms of Section I, make sure you know your techniques. I cannot stress this enough. Whether it be language techniques or visual, get familiar with them. Try responding to a whole range of texts and pin point whatever you can. What I personally do, is grab a text and find all the techniques I...

    Subjects: Advanced English Rank: 130/152 Mathematics Rank: 88/119 IPT Rank: 14/20 PDHPE Rank: 37/49 Drama Rank: 14/19 Yes, my ranks do indicate that I've done fairly bad at school and there are excuses which I won't even attempt to raise. All my marks were below the mean...

    UAI prediction. Hate me.

    Trust me, anything is possible. I too am sitting on bottom ends of the ranks, but as long as you do well for the HSC, you should be fine :)

    ok. can someone give me advice on this essay..

    Alright, I'm not too sure which school you're from but from where I'm at, it's imperative that you need to get the basics right before anything else. From what Iknow, writing your composers' name and the text names of ALL the texts you are discussing about is required in your introduction. I...

    i need help choosing my related texts.

    Don't hesitate to use simple texts such as a picture book (Which i'm doing) such as Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak. Overload your essay with techniques and appropriately integrate it with The Tempest and the question and you should be good as gold :)!

    ok. can someone give me advice on this essay..

    Much as I would love to help you out, I cannot decipher much of the words as they appear to be too bright. Is there anyway you can somehow type it out or if not make the words darker? Read some of it, I think it has potential :]!

    Repeat year 12 again?.....

    Much like eternalsoul6, i too have done REALLY bad in year 12. Consider my marks to be roughly around the mid ranks for all my subjects except maths and adv. english where i'm placing bottomish.. Do I still stand a chance of getting 83 UAI if I get band 5's and 6's D:? I'm worrying my ass off...

    The First Kiss

    I remember my first kiss was very sloppy, saliva was pouring down our lips and onto our chins and what not... Pure freestyle action if you get what I mean. It was 2AM in the morning on the bench of a beach front, whilst the daily garbage man would gaze from the sidewalks, pretending to pick up...
