    BOS Showcase: 2009 Major Works

    They don't publish the reflection statement anymore.. therefore the mark doesnt really matter, since someone could have went very well in their major work, and shit in their reflection statement.

    BOS Showcase: 2009 Major Works

    Congrats everyone!! I got 46/50. MUCH higher than i expected. I think that the subjective nature of the marking is very much hilighted by the fact that even though i barely got an E4, i'm still nominated for showcase.... Hmm, i BET a man marked my major work! arghhhhh Anyway, regardless...

    Extension 1 Essay: Have they ever...

    It would be mean for them to say "all 3 perscribed" or to specify which perscribed IMO.... they better not.! But, i'm going to know them all just incase, because otherwise i won't be able to sleep at night :S

    ONLY 3/5 topics tested...

    hahaha, yeah, i know.. but i'm speaking explicitly... like, there were no complicated calculations of financial ratios, ect... I just think that in relation to previous years, it was extremely unbalanced.

    ONLY 3/5 topics tested...

    Did anyone else notice the semi-absence of Finance and Business Management and Change on the Business HSC exam? There was like 2 or 3 MCQ's about it, but that's it. hmmm.. why the hell would they do that? It makes the exam look unprofessional. Shouldn't they have balanced it?

    looking at offloading some hsc textbooks earlier than others?

    You really need to buy the economics book new. The book changes ever year, and sometimes the content changes DURING the year (i have to re-learn the first few topics for HSC because everything has changed.... AND the final chapter of the book is now obsolete because labour laws have changed)...

    Omg, Alex, i'm so sorry that it took me so long to comment!, my laptop has been a bitch and not letting me open attatchments! Really, all i can say is WOW. But since i am notorious for going over word limits, i can't stop there.... All of your concepts are extremely unique, not a...

    BOS Showcase: 2009 Major Works

    oh wow, thankyou so so so much :) For me, the techniques tended to arise from the poem's content, hence the textual integrity. For example, some poems are written in free verse and are very disjointed, in order to create a symbiosis between the content of the poem and the way in which it is...
