sometimes i feel like i talk to a brick wall. once you get your marks back yu can all realise the two texts wont get u band 6 and then yu will think omg la bomba was right. cant believe this.
You are to obsessed with making it known to everyone that you think you know what you are talking about. READ MY PREVIOUS POSTS. In which you will see that I did infact say that I could understand how it would not achieve a band 6.

hey u fuckers who cant read shudnt get no fucking brownie points or shit
you should get penalised for not being able the read the question

...only in fucking english can you sluts get away with answering your own question, if this was maths you dont get no brownie points for stating extra theorems, you get it wrong

end of story
Yeah i know you don't get any extra points for "stating extra theorems", but as long as those theorems don't contradict what you were saying, you won't lose marks either!

What the hell? No need to get all angry. Only in English that sluts can get away with answering your own question? How does that even makes sense.

Thank you. This is what I am trying to say. I UNDERSTAND that a band 6 is more then likely, unacheivable with an answer with 2 related texts. What I was trying to say was, and dissagreeing with La Bomba about is the fact that they wont TAKE MARKS AWAY from you.

Is that clearer for you La Bomba? or are you gonna come back with a "I know everything" reply.

an idiot who effectively has a solid understanding of area of study and reading the question which was able to nourish his response to band 6 material.

Oh wow! you should be proud!

I don't think you can compare the intelligence used to write a pointless essay that you'll never see again to common sense...

i am sensing a feeling of not belonging while i am posting in this thread. also links to conflicting perspectives. i could use this as related material, your sarcasm is a good oratical technique "oh wow! you should be proud" you have effectively conveyed your conflicting perspective

Actually no, you're absolutely wrong there about maths. Once you get your answer, anything else afterwards is ignored, doesn't matter if it's a continuation of correct working out, or a contradiction. Even if it is a contradiction, markers just write: "subsequent error after answer". You'd still get full marks.

Re: Called up Board of Studies regarding 2 related texts

Is it really possible for an essay with 2 related texts to get 15/15, no matter how good it is - because it failed to fulfill the requirements of the question?

No i doubt it. They will probably give high quality 2 related material responses only 14 as a max. I'll be happy with a 13. My HSC hasn't been going all to well :( i need the marks:monkey:
