So, how was the Ancient trial? (4 Viewers)

[spin spin sugar]

yeah fuck, im so over people being all like "omg dont tell them the answers". who cares people?

anyway yeah, i totally fucked up my ancient exam. definitely my worst trial exam of all!! the major lesson here: KNOW EVERYTHING. i am going to study every day after my trials until the hsc. there's just so much to know for ancient

 

[malayz_angel]

Burial rights for Sparta? Yeah I knew that luckily... I guess some of the stuff we hear during class sinks in....

 

[MicK_eT]

THE TEST WAS EVVVIIIILLLL!!!!!!
no study .... unless u call watchin scary movie and american werewolf in paris STUDY!!! ARGH!!!

 

[Nedzy]

thank u guys sooo much, i did have the same test as most of you u helped a lot...

I had mine today, and unsurprisingly, it was quite the evil test. I almost feel betrayed, we got told that it was going to be made up of questions from the last 3 HSC's, and that wasn't the case. :X

But nevertheless, I think I did at least decently on most of the test. (Except for a couple of questions in the Rome bit that we hadn't studied the relevant stuff in class for. Oh well.) I'm just hoping I can get over 80% for it (The higher, the better), as that will be good enough for the trial.

Probably the hardest of all my trials so far.

oh i screwed up my exam so badly i just didn't know my stuff well enough at all. from now on it's to the syllabus dot points i'm gonna focus on! and i've never heard the use of evidence so emphasised before

I learnt that the hard way by stuffing up my assignment, but yeah not as bad as if i did that in the trial. They expect you to know ALL sources (i.e ancient, modern, archaeological) and if the question has a source on the page, good luck, all they want IS sources...the HSC is requiring you to complete requirements, ie the dot points...

Not good for us, haven't really done Agrippina yet it's in the test and considering the marks from the last exam we did, we'll need to know more that what we know. The teacher marked us down for not including ancient, modern AND archaeological sources...

 

[Nedzy]

HOW AWFUL WAS THAT EXAM??? OMI GAWD I DIED...BADLY

 

[Yami]

Don't worry. You can make up your marks in the proper HSC exam. Just look at what you did wrong, and improve from there.

 

[MicK_eT]

can they tell if u make up historians??
i made all my historians up in the trial..... im scared.....

 

[malayz_angel]

I made up one for mine as I forgot a historian and remembered his quote...I got away with that one!

 

[Wiggum]

Yeah but that's at school, you never know if you can in the HSC. If you got away with it...oh yeah...

 

[Wiggum]

Yeah i made up a few for my trial, wasn't too bad, needed more study though. Hope that i get away with a few of mine.

 

[krissy7685]

and rights of passage?(it was in the syllabus i have nfi what it means)HELP

 

[malayz_angel]

Spartan burial rites? Well I dont know if they will help u anymore...but basically messengers are sent around Laconia to spread the news, two people (a man and a woman) from each household must mourn for the king....an image of the king is made and paraded around the city...the markets are not open for ten days..etc
