um, basically what the title says : )

have you gotten yours back yet? what were your marks like? did your teacher say anything that's changed your whole outlook on what you're doing?

I got mine back today, and was pleased with the mark (10/10, yay! :)), but my teacher made some suggestions which is possibly going to change the whole direction of my work...

I got 20/30 - not happy with it...

This isn't meant to be an excuse - but none of us got really high marks because of the way our teacher presented it to us - it was meant to be this casual talk in front of friends...

My teacher is the sweetest, but she's never taught EE2 before, and the only teacher that has ever taught EE2 and had a critical response in the class left at the end of last year... *sighs* She really doesn't know what she's doing...

Then I found this forum and everyone's panicking over Proposals and I'm like... grr... we all didn't take it as seriously as we should have... will try harder in Viva Voce...

honestly, if you really feel the teacher didn't emphasise the seriousness of it enough (that it was an official assessment), go to the head of english and say something. whether she's a sweet woman or not is irrelevant, the fact of the matter is that these are your HSC marks, and you deserve to be able to achieve to your full potential.

Yeah, our teacher hasn't made it as blatantly clear as other teachers that the internal marks count at all... he's just told us "oh yeah, we're marking the process..." that's it! Bloody ambiguous if you ask me.

At least I'll actually do something for the viva-voche...

Yes, I know this NOW.

I can still recover from a 8/10... I know a lot of people went worse so yeah, it's cool...

8/10 is a B, which definitely isn't bad. i was expecting about a 6, but the least i would've been truly happy with was an 8.

i guess that's the lesson. i worked my ass off, i got the results - now to do that for two years : )

lol

I got 47/50 which I was absolutely ecstatic about. We have 6 girls and 3 guys in our class, and all the girls did terribly, but the guys did so well. Mine was the highest, which makes my head expand so much!

Our teachers have made EVERYTHING so clear to us (oh, except for drama) that they have all scared the hell out of me.

Proposal

I got 20/20 (but she thought it was too long so she put it down to 18). My teacher told me however it was 20/20 quality. either way, I came first

so....if you change your idea you have to write a new proposal altogether???? does that mean you get a new mark for your proposal????

i got 15/20 :mad: dont know what happened, it took me ages to do and i put alot of effort into it... The highest in my class was 19.5/20, second 16/20 and even though i came 3rd i think the reason im upset with the mark is that i thought i could have done better. Btw the average for my class was around 11.5/20, with 22 people in the class =)

I got 8/10 and i can see what i needed to improve but it was a bit disappointing when most of the class got higher than me. I guess that ill just have to kick them in the second assessment
