brah i aint memorise shit word for word and got all 17s on my modules. biggest scam and a waste of time and anyone i see do it is majorly silly.

just study your main argument points that u got from studying the module, make sure theyre broad and adaptable, have some short quotes, memorise those things and bob's ur uncle. do practice essays and get feedback. do not memorise a thesis ffs that has gotta be some of the dumbest shit ive heard ngl you don't even know the question like bro 😭

all that time spent memorising an essay word for word you could actually learn your broad argument points, inside out and learn how to adapt them and make them pointed to a question by learning what the rubric could possibly ask. you could also learn how to write good by submitting multiple practice essays on a broad range of questions and reading marking guidelines. but no these bozos are tryna memorise some shit to one question area then go regurgitate it and then feel shit bc they bottled their exam like it aint their fault.

anyway im angry bc theres sm kids at my school who bottled their english trial bc theyre idiots and didnt actually listen to how to study, and then theyre salty bc i did half of what they did.


and dont get me started on those flipping twits who go to the libraries and are like look at me im studying for so many hours like bro no youre going there bc u wanna socialise which is fair enough. but if u study efficiently at home then u can go do actual fun shit but instead ur in a library stressing eachother out tryna one up eachother sayin u study 4389212 hours a day. like i still managed to play sport, see my gf and get better marks than you and i did half the shit you did.

i disagree, memorsing isn't the way to go.
if you really suck at English you should memorise, but it is really inefficient and often gives you a worse mark.
I memorise myself which i regret, idek if ill get a band 6 anymore after trials :(

how do n warnings work?
basically a "non-completion warning"


"This is the decision made by the principal at the end of the course, under delegated authority from NESA, that a student has not satisfactorily completed a course. Students who have not complied with the course completion criteria and who have received at least two written warnings can be regarded as not having satisfactorily completed the course at the time of finalising grades." - nesa website

that really sucks

keep in mind though you can appeal to nesa if you actually get an N determination and unless you’ve genuinely not completed course requirements, they’ll fix it up
I'm literally topping most of my classes idk what they're on abt, u don't understand the cry i crew in the car on the way home from school 💀 that shit was UGLYYYY
