cos i had to teach myself the topic... i think i did well considering, my problem was that i didnt have enough quotes, i only lost the marks in the last Q cos we do the short answers for Sparta not the essay...
it was annoying though cos in an in class assessment which was an essay for Sparta i got 25/25 but the difference was that it was just on the role and importance of Spartan women

woah you guys got full marks so easily, our teacher never ever gives full marks
personalities: ramesses II: 20/25
societies: Ramesside period: 23/25
Period: JC and Augustus: 22/25
Period: Amenhotep III-Ramesses II: 22/25
Total: 87% (first for trial)
What do you mean so easily? We had to work our bums off to get those marks, they didnt give them cos they felt like it. ancient is my area, its the subject i put the most effort into... i understand what u mean about teachers not giving full marks though, they can be like that... just keep working hard and you will be fine, if ur coming first and getting a mark like urs in the trial, u can kick butt in the HSC

I screwed up under stress, got a mental block, couldn't write anything after the first two questions. It was shithouse, I got 43%. What I did was actually fine though, and I'm still coming 2nd, because our class is pretty slack, s'only me and the other accelerated girl who actually get over 90s much (it's hardcore competition, I love it :D)

Anyway, I'm studying my ass off here, and if I break down in the HSC, I'm gonna be so incredibly mad at myself.
It's so frustrating, when you know you can do it, but you just can't do it. :mad:

Oh, l would have killed to do Agrippina for a personality, how well does she link in with the Julio-Claudians for bloody hells sake! Congrats anyway and keep up the excellent work!
We did JC for our personality, & cause we did 2 hist periods, Aug AND fall of the republic, JC is just FotRR stuff and just a little more 'bout hs background and political style, etc :D

i used to get in the 90's now it's like 88 or 89 which is ok but i could do better, most people in our year get in the 90 down to the 70 not much below i don't think, it's not surprising for the hightest mark to be 98% i always thought thats what most people got for ancient history but i guess not.

poordoorfan most schools actually mark hard, for 25/25 it has to be totally perfect and answer the question and the marking criteria fully. I dont understand how people can possibly do that in each of the 4 questions, especially with time restrictions. It will be interesting to see how they are marked in hsc :D
