Most people have already done their english paper. I found much easier than expected, just learn your quotes and you should be set. Good luck!

here is my experience, i walked into the room with 4 pens, two blue two black. i then paced forward to a spare seat right next to the girl coming first in EEX2 this gave a smart vibe (not really XD). the deputy came in and i filled out an attendeance slip. after this was completed we read for 10 minutes... eventually 10 minutes had passed and i could start writing. i had read ll the material and started on my essay which took 50 minutes to write, i then went onto section one, the unseen texts. i answered each question by writing the answers on the paper supplied. 35 minutes left and i started the creative writing... time finished and i finished the exam... i walked out of the hall and studied for the second paper...
sharing experiences of doing an english paper are not going to help you, studying however will

It fluctuates between 200-450, :music:



Good luck man, kick the exam's ass!
lmao yeah my school rank also fluctuates around those ranks, or close to it. Though so far i've gone ok in the trials, bar maths tomorrow which will probably be shocking.

lol on the choosing seats topic, I generally try to sit 3 or 4 seats away from the front of the big clock.

Usually try to have my gf in view. Getting the right seat is very important for me, I get disoriented otherwise and can't complete the exam in good shape.

So advice for some people yet to do their trials: choose a good seat ie far away from any of the entrances, a few rows from the front, good view of the clock, and between the centre and sides of the venue.

If necessary, position any important people in your field of vision.
