I got an absolutely awesome Mod A text...love atwood, shes awesome.

I love all my prescribed texts to be honest, i got very lucky!

Especially The Crucible, mostly for Giles Corey. Favorite character 100%, big fan of Giles. Giles my beloved

LOVE atwood too, I use one of her short stories as my supplementary for ext

guys is 1100 words in 52 minutes reasonable or am I a really slow writer? I just timed myself doing a T.S. Eliot essay

youll wanna get a bit faster - youre only meant to take 45 and you should account for time to plan - but its not bad id say?

EDIT: 40 minutes oops

Better than what i can do! I think a good aim for most essays is about a minimum of 800 words, so if you spend 45 minutes on your essay and get in 800 words, that's solid!

Its far better than what i can do. I can do approx. 1 (one) syllable in 300 years.

Ohhh i see! In that case then on the day, do keep in mind its likely you may have to adapt your prepared essay so that may take an extra while - so with that in mind, do the best you can! But so long as you have that pre prepared essay in mind, it'll be much easier to write with a bit more confidence...hence, faster. Good luck! 1100 in 50 minutes is lightnight speed for me XD

I haven't got a prepared essay - I haven't prepared one because all of my teachers said not to. This has stressed me out a bunch too because everyone on here are using prepared essay, whereas everyone I've spoken to says no. (Note: I go to a rural catholic school)

think about getting your hsc results back and seeing the worst result you could imagine, think about how you would disappoint yourself and whoever else cares about what you get, think about reflecting on that day about how you should’ve studied more
