    Japanese Continuers

    The exam was awful for me. Listening was fine but the rest :confused: I ran out of time for most things. I would have liked to been able to produce something decent but I had a mental blank. Did anyone else have that sinking feeling when the examiner said "Time"? I was so upset and disappointed...

    To repeat or not to repeat Year 12?

    I would not repeat year 12. Could you really do it all again? I know a girl that repeated year 12 and in the end she got exactly the same mark. Once you decide to repeat year 12 you loose this year's mark. Is it really worth running the risk that you won't better your mark, or still won't get...

    '07 2u japanese: roll call

    Continuers Japanese student here. There is NO way I could have handled extension. Continuers is hard enough, but heaps of fun. We have a class of 2 at my school. To run it they even had to get a teacher to come in especially for us. How many of you are considering doing Japanese at Uni?

    Is anyone else over the HSC?

    If I get another assessment task I think I'm going to explode! We've just finished our trials so they bury us with more work, and lecture us on how bad we're all doing. To quote my science teacher we have to "pull the digit out and start working". The teachers have lost perspective. We are...

    HSC Speaking Examination

    I felt really good while I was in the exam though my heart was going so fast I thought it would jump out of my chest. I felt confident answering the questions. Mostly I got simple base questions (which was good cause that's pretty much all I can handle) then they got harder as she asked...

    Best+Worst of Teacher Quotes and Habits

    Maths teacher: "Just tick whatever answer you got. It's too hard. I can't work it out." (Note she made up the question) "...It doesn't matter if you can't do it, it's only a few marks in the exam." "I caught the bouquet!"

    Hey somwhereelse. You seem to be going through exactly what has gone through my head the last couple of months. I missed the last 2 weeks of school last year so I didn't hand in my draft proposal, even though I had absolutely nothing. I have struggled with deciding upon medium, subject matter...

    Help!!! Subject choices!! Too Many UNITS!!!

    Hey yinks. Have you dropped anything yet? I've finally decided to drop Art and Eng Ext 2. Art was just too stressful. The teacher and I kept clashing artistically, and because I had no direction. I dropped Ext 2 because I racked my brains and could not think of a concept or idea and looking back...

    2007ers - What do you want to do after the HSC?

    How do all you people know what you want to do with your life?! How did you decide? Was it a conscious decision or have you always wanted to do it? I have absolutely no idea what I want to do when I finish school, which now is only 3 terms away. (Very scary!!!!) People keep telling me I need to...
