    Who got 99+ without Extension maths or Physics?

    I got 99.6 with 4 unit english (so somewhat elite, but not to the same degree), modern and ancient history, general maths and SOR 1 unit. I went to a non-selective school ranked outside the top 200 and got no tutoring. Does that help at all? Also, my friend from the same school got 99.5 with...

    BOS Showcase: 2009 Major Works

    Ha, yeah, I just trawled through our past conversation; airy indeed. But the validation is nice. My dad was actually reading the paper and read out the 'A comprehensive high school of Blaxland..." and what you said, and I remember thinking "What a wanker", before I got my results and realised...

    BOS Showcase: 2009 Major Works

    Yes! Well done Aquasubmarine, completely deserved. It's good to see that the best in the state was actually fantastic and amazing and we all thought water/sounds was brilliant without it being validated by a mark or anything! Mine got 49/50 so I'm pretty damn chuffed!

    Embarrassing that I (and you guys I suppose) still check this thread post-HSC? Gulp.

    Romanticism, people!

    Ha, I wrote 20 pages for the essay... It's a little secret I call FOUR WORDS A LINE! (hovering up to 6 and sliding down to two when I write "experiences anti-establishmentarianism" (fuck spell check, MY HSC IS OVVEURERUEURUEUUREUERUR!) Shocking, I know.

    SMH article on how shit is HSC English

    That's true, and I can definetly support that. Looking at the 2008 modules, they had one called 'telling the truth', which is essentially conflicting perspectives, only it seemed much more relevant and applicable. I don't know about you, but we did Julius Caesar, and while ultimately it did fit...

    SMH article on how shit is HSC English

    Yes, of course literature is more than aesthetics. But the point is that writers, although certainly driving home a theme and whatnot, are not (at least the good ones) deliberately scratching their heads over which bitsy simile to use to make some grand statement. I said this before, I don't...

    Your Picks for MH questions for 09 paper

    Hey Ana, for origins of the Cold War, would you go into the whole pre-Cold War Bolshevick Revolution, 1917, conflicting motives in latter part of the war, or just go straight from the conferences, emerging differences etc, and then say the Cold War officially began with the blockade or something...

    Ha, 'Von Seekt thought he was a mad cunt' - he pretty much was... I can just picture the french coming up to him and going, "Hey, you've heard of that crazy little thing called the Versailles Treaty and its military limitations, right?" and he'd just state blankly and go "What ist dast?" :mad1...

    Your Picks for MH questions for 09 paper

    What would you say was the role, direct role, of the army in the failure of the Weimar Republic? Wouldn't that be sort of limited... I know you can argue against the questoin, and include other factors, but that's always so cheap...
