Well I feel more confident than I did in paper 1! I feel GREAT about Mod C :) I'm actually proud because I think my marks in that will be good enough to pull me up a bit, really happy with what I wrote. Mod A I feel pretty okay about, not fantastic but not bad! I was surprised we were asked to...

Eeee I hope I am well prepared! Lol, everybody is hinting something will catch us off guard :oops: Thank you!! I hope everything goes well for everybody!!

No I'm well aware that Mod C is going to contain a discursive, imaginative, persuasive ect... But I mean Mod A. It's likely they will ask us in a non-traditional way that doesn't follow essay structure. I hope they don't, but at least we were prepped for it in trials.

Like the new rubric and design of the paper suggests, I'm more expecting an interview/letter/conversation. Not a discursive piece or anything. They may not, but it's likely they will in this paper to establish divergence in the future. I do hope it's an essay and they go easy on us, though.

I don't know... it might be but NESA has consistently hinted that it won't be, the whole design of the new syllabus points to it not being an essay. Textual conversations is much more likely to be a different text type than the critical study imo

No problem! Hope all goes well.

I know! Like, no offence, it's not a hard job mate... how is it that all examiners are incompetent on some level? Who does NESA hire??

Tell me about it! We had the same examiners for trials and they screwed up pretty much every exam we had. Missing papers, them cutting our time short, refusing to give us dictionarys (required) for French... you name it, they did it. One literally growled at my friend today HAHA! I'm not even...

Depends what they ask. Letter could be from the perspective of a composer, so you'd talk about your motivations behind the text and insert your themes and quotes there, provide contextual detail I guess. Interview is similar to a conversation, you'd literally be like: Composer 1: And what are...

I feel that lol. Our examiners are a bit incompetent so they added an extra hour onto our time, but unfortunately somebody caught it out :( I would've happily taken the extra hour

My guess? Interview/letter between composers/critics ect... or a conversation. I could be wrong but I have a feeling.

Sameeeee if I had just 10 extra minutes.... maybe I could've answered the question properly... man that was a shitshow

Yeah I heard this too! I fucked that up if that's true... don't know if i even mentioned Steveo to be honest...

I am so screwed for paper 2 it's not even funny. I'm still laughing though. Oh well, at least I can find humour in my shitty atar...

Yeah that's what I said too! I used the "Bright cold day in April" quote ahahah

Yep. God damn is right :oops:, she's super fast. Sometimes I wonder how she even has time to think, but honestly she never puts the pen down and always comes out with top marks.

I'm not sure - our rank 1 has cerebral palsy so she uses a computer. Not sure how much she writes tbh

A hell of a lot more than me, that's for sure lol. I've seen the essays she has prepared, and fuck they're good. About 1000 words each but god does she expand in the exam lol.

I got in for international studies at Macquaire, primary education at Notre Dame, and both choices at UOW so journalism or comms & media/international studies

Yeah, I think her rank is 2. She whips out ideas I've never even thought of :oops: I wish I had half her skill lol
