i'm just gonna fly thru my electives..write like a page each or something..head of english goes "we expect a minimum of 10pages".....

Everyone in the hall...."WTF?!?!?!?!" lol.

Kristy-
Too late for your trials, but may be useful for other people ;)
Or at least for the HSC

And the module speeches sucks! Twelve speeches, that I have to memorise quotes from? Along with Hamlet, R&G are dead, PS poetry, the stuff from the stimulus booklet, four related materials (two for change, two for powerplay) and 1984?!? Yeah right... I think I'll leave out the speeches and save myself the heartache

KingofthieF, Kristy-- no probs :)
Glad someone besides myself found it useful ;)

And the english paper (especially the speeches part) went fantastically well :D (although it was as easy question)
