    French extension

    Sorry! Yes but these essays aren't just opinion - you have to use examples to prove what you're saying! You have to tie it in with the themes and the whole writing in french thing aint easy. Plus my friends have seen the questions and claim that they wouldn't be able to write an essay in...

    French extension

    Okay fair enough. I'm just saying if you did write over the limit, why is that such a bad thing? It's not an advantage, however for those people who actually did study, there are so many things you could say for that question (b). If you chose the first one then obviously your answer will be...

    French extension

    Not necessarily. Do you write on every second line? Because I do. I have small handwriting and I wrote 6 pages. The reason being that the topic was so broad it would be impossible to do it justice with 300 words. To write "breadth and depth" without giving details, examples and a variety of...

    French continuers - how'd you go

    No technique questions (not even in the listening) The hardest question was a 4 marker in the listening that said "What is the value of this announcement?" as opposed to a describe question and in R+R the hardest question was a 5 marker which said "explain the author's attitude to the...

    Section I - Multiple Choice and short answers

    Exactly! We can't forget the Jews..despite the small population here in Aus the enlistment was really high. 8) A I thought they were all easy. Glossolalia (speaking in tongues) is Pentecostalism and is also part of the Charismatic movement. i.e. Assemblies of God New Age movement is all...

    2U - Religion and media

    I said the values and beliefs we celebrate during Christmas and marriages are universal and so non believers are still able to gain something from these events e.g. Christmas --> giving --> social justice a common element in both Christianity and secular humanism Marriage --> love and...

    French continuers - how'd you go

    HAhaha sarah, sarah, sarah I knew it was you as soon as you said "Listening was great" - Only one person in the world who can find listening enjoyable :p I picked up on the irony - it was a last minute stroke of genius "They are no longer listening ...." ....because they are too...

    French continuers - how'd you go

    It was difficult. I was prepared for R+R part B! I had a feeling it would be a job application (although I think I adopted an informal register unintentionally) Listening was okay...so he's a computer hacker hey! I get it now (it didn't actually ask us for that detail did it?) I like...

    How many answer booklets did you use?

    3 booklets 3 sections Simple. Nice and easy. For humans (allusion to Nokia ads) You know what's scary? Half the people here have shocking grammar and are unable to use FULLSTOPS. That sentence is too long, person a few posts above me. I wasn't even counting the pages I used and you...

    How did u link Q3 with yourself?

    All these people memorising things..I do hope none of you plan on careers where you're forced to write things on the spot (journalism) or actually think for yourself rather than rely on what other people say. We were taught in yr 7 not to write in 1st person. Unfortunately the english I...

    How did u link Q3 with yourself?

    You can write in 1st person when it asks for your understanding Otherwise they would just say "individuals and the world/society" but the your understanding bit should differentiate or at least, it should show how the texts affect your understanding of journeys. I think it says...

    Speaking Exams Round 2

    I think it's the same, not sure! We don't have an ital ext class just a french one (there's 4 girls in it) The theme is the Individual and society. Then there are sub themes like coping with change, belonging vs alienation, and tolerance of difference. I like the course it's pretty good. I...
