Whoa. I deleted mine anyway.

Bullshitted my way thru short answers, got angry @ the creative writing question & did okay on the essay.

CSSA Trial - English 2003

Spent too much and wrote too much time on Question 1 and 2... Although q2 was well written, structured and had potential for full marks...

Essay ran out of time... missed one text and only completed half a conclusion...

Simplest Statement though... who would have done a feature article or a speech?

Yeah I do perspective. I did the speech, which kinda started out as a speech, turned into an essay, then finished as a speech. It was alright, kinda short though.

I found the topic quite easy, matched my related material & I found it easy to write about my prescribed text. What stimulus material did you guys use?

oh no, but isn't there something you studied in class that you had to relate to changing worlds? or was that just star wars?

oh and the language in the speech depends on your audience. i suppose it's generally better to write for a more sophisticated audience to show the marker that you can write fluently and stuff. depends on the question i guess.

I used 'Sturt's Dreaming' I thought it fitted in with the answer perfectly. I only used one related material tho, I ran out of time.
