Do you have any evidence to substantiate that claim of making 'vital grammatical errors?' From clear logic, if they were top students in the course of HSC English, then only a few errors should be made. That statement you have pointed out, is a clear contradiction. You can't score top marks with 'vital grammatical errors'. Also right now, you are communicating with me, you are providing me with rebuttals, and as such, from the implications of your argument, English has not helped in your competency in arguing, whether verbally or written? That's a bit farfetched in my opinion.Doing HSC English will not help me become a better communicator. How do you then explain the numerous amount of top students in the course that make vital grammatical errors? To me that isn't very good communication, in fact it adds to the idea that it is unfair for those who are not orientated in the area of humanities.
What you have not understood is that HSC English does not provide the entirety for the ability to analyse. HSC English is only a fraction of that competency. Like I said previously, HSC English is only the building blocks. In saying that, your own individual approach of analysing in relation to your future careers must be acquired through experience, experimentation etc. There are copious methods of analysing and as such you cannot expect the English course itself to teach you all methods of analysing relevant to all courses in the outside world. It is your duty to forge your own approach in analysing and ultimately interpreting what is necessary. Although this may be prejudice to other subjects, but analysing and rationalising in English is more appropriated to other Humanity courses.Actually it does. The truth of the matter is that science orientated people don't get into high positions because for instance they know how to find the forces on an object, or how to differentiate or integrate functions. No, it's because they usually have great analytical and research skills that help advance the company that has employed them. HSC English clearly does not help with this.
Again you are proving my point. Right now at this very moment, you are providing me with explicit arguments and valid responses. Essays and the other various text types may not be used, however its intentions are used daily. The intentions - well obviously are establishing concepts, perspectives etc. Essays, expositions, feature articles and so forth all establish and reinforce a viewpoint. Similarly, you are introducing a viewpoint in this very debate. You may not realise it, but HSC English is used everyday.And where exactly would I use that in life? I hope that you do know that scientific journals and publications are usually in dot form giving the relevant information, if you're trying to say that it applies to writing essays in science courses
