I was thinking of doing extension 2 english (1 Viewer)

[glowsticks]

I would like to do extension 2 english, but I'm not quite clear on it. I know you need to compose a major work throughout the year, but what exactly does it involve? Is it difficult to get a good mark? And would you guys recommend doing it?

Thanks

1. Yes, it involves you writing either a short story, radio drama, poem or series of poems, making a film... or whatever for the year
2. No, because if you're good at English - then this should be a breeze for you
3. Yes, it was my favourite HSC subject.

do you also have to do reflection, diary entries and so on? And a viva voce. What exactly is that?

How did you manage your time properly, since you did 4U maths on top of that?

Yes. Yes and yes.

Viva Voce is basically a talk where you go to your teacher and answer a few questions about your work. Like... iirc, I had to answer a few questions on what sorts of research I was doing for my work, and I think a question about what I was aiming to achieve with the work.

How? It's the HSC - you just did.

I'm sorry I can't be more helpful in this respect but... in reality, if you make enough sacrifices and are disciplined enough - you just can. That said, I didn't spend a lot of time on MX2 so... yeah.
