who hated it?

*puts hand up*

 

[Huy]

I ABSOLUTELY HATED IT!

... only because i was underprepared.
i studied last night for about 6 hours, english adv modules.
and im pretty confident about getting average/good marks for it.

but extension, OMG!
did you do crime fiction? module A: genre?
if so ... what in the world!!

the first part was alright, but the second!
it made NO sense (that and everybody was cramming for the interval between eng adv paper 2 and prior to the commencement of extension).

out of 50 (25 + 25)
i would say:

16/25
15/25
--------
31/50

LOL. my half yearly mark was a lot better, but not by much.
*whinge*

 

[iambored]

yeah, i do crime

i know! it was like 2 essays!
i didn't like the first q either, neither of them were on what i had learnt! i learnt values stuff.. so i tried 2 incorporate it anyway

so with the first question, wat could u write about? umm.. clues... uhh clues??? what else?? i had no idea!

 

[Rand]

that was an exceptionally POOR paper, even for a fucking Catholic Paper

The examiners are real poofters for putting it on the same day as 2 Unit paper 2!

But, managed to write 20 BOS pages in total before my hand fell off

 

[iambored]

yes! y put ext 1 on the same day as adv????

do u use the BOS papers at school 4 exams?

 

[spin spin sugar]

did anyone get a look at what the question was for postmodernism? our school isnt doing the Catholic papers but i'd love something to practise with :/

god, i hope our paper isnt as hard for us!!
fortunately though we have a week between our advanced exams and extension exam

 

[chip]

i think i did catholic
spin spin sugar the common question for module B was
two students are writing letter to one another about which prescribed text they value most
write a minimum of FOUR letters discussin TWO prescribed texts and TWO other texts of your own chosing

some thing like that anyway
sorry didnt look at elective A

 

[chip]

and i thought it wasnt too bad --------------- bit confusing to begin with but i ended up writing a fair bit and using the whole two hours

i think it was fairish

 

[Leap]

Whats with having to write transcripts for all the English exams? I had to do one for Change, Frontline and Extension 1 Crime. I'm getting bloody sick of it too, I might add.

 

[iambored]

i dont mind trascripts coz u dont have 2 write as formally

the letter writing thing was kinda odd...after pretty much arguing with myself for the 2u truth question and then 3u, i think i feel a split personality coming on

 

[chip]

nah nah really spin spin it wasnt that when i first read it i was a bit like that but once you start writing its ok

 

[chip]

hey jingle bell me too by the end of the day i felt like a skitzo with like five different voices in my head
at least someone knows how i feel

haha!!

 

[Jinglebell]

student A: yeah, chip, you're not alone...i forsee a strange spike in mental illness an the coming years.
student B: no! i disagree! it wiill have no impact on us at all!

uh, yes...i think i need to sleep for the next four days...

 

[spin spin sugar]

so you're supposed to write letters between people?

(sorry, that sounds really retarded to you probably, but i've NEVER had to write a letter for an exam before... except the school certificate.,, i think)

 

[Jinglebell]

yeah, we had to write a series of letters between people...i was a little annoyed, because our teacher told us last week to "think letters", so i went back and looked at/improved on my Pride & Prejudice letter from the 1/2 yearly...i was actually looking forward to getting in character and all..and then i saw the question and went "oh. damn."

 

[McLake]

Can someone let me know what the questions for Crime Fiction were (just a vauge sense as you probably can't remember word-for-word)?

 

[Lord Ac]

Im still trying to find the "creative composition" part. I mean, the writing of letters is not creative! Bascially, just wrote my essay again in 4 parts ...
