nah they gave me a crappy dummy laptop. i did it in a private room in the library, no one watched me, they just said "we trust in your integrity as a student blah blah". the spell check, thesaurus and other stuff was disabled, so was the A:/ drive i think.

lol yaaah it is, who are u? actually, i think i know who you are.
check ur private messages.roo,
yeah, i start typing away and im finished typing the sentence in my head before i can think of a new one, unlike when your writing when your hand is a sentence or so behind.
As for my application Morgues, i have a learning disability (or did when i was little) and so i made an application for the computer as i have dodgy handwriting.

u cant really prepare for section 2 except for knowing alot about change. U also gotta be aware of the criteria you have to fill (rebrix or somthing.. u know the bit where it goes "you will be assesed on ur ability to ...")

isnt section 2 usually a narrative of some sort? or some type of creative writing so just prepare a short story before you get into the exam about change. thats what our teacher told us to do and it worked fine for me..

I think the best way to prepare for this Section, is to be aware of most of the text types.
And you have to practice writing all of them over and over again, so you really KNOW them.
Here is something from my book:

well our teacher said not to write anything like this:
-hsc changes or how it changes u
-"and then i woke up" or "then i died"
-nothing overly descriptive, like "then i brushed my teeth, went to bed.. blah blah"
i do self, good ones for that are mental changes, like extreme ones. e.g. you could do a diary entry on a person's life, say from 7 - 14 - 21..

i actually find section 2 the easiest of all the sections....its the only one i dont have to think about.
our trial was writing an article and i thought what a load of crap i mean section 2 is creative writing....creative writing is NOT an article for crying out loud!!! most of the ppl at school i know wrote stories...now im wondering whether i actually ever even read the question....
i hate that...i think i've read the question then i realise...nope i skipped a line or a couple of words and its like 'doh!'.
why cant the HSC be all creative writing...no essays...no techniques...

because in the "real world" no one reads books or watches movies without considering the historical contexts of the composer and the techniques he/she used. silly you
and yeah, i skipped a couple lines for some reason in my paper 1. i completely misread a line that said who the audience of my speech was!

So the moral of the story is; READ THE WHOLE QUESTION!!!

i think you either have the skills or you dont
if your well read its obviously gunna help u construct a story but i heard that the secret to the question is not to use the change word even once, and i think that is the secret to it.
