i got 43% which is very disapointing. my whole class of 6 got below 70%. These crap marks are mainly because of my teacher. This is her first year teaching the course and she thinks she knows eveything bout it when she doesnt. she marks very hard on us saying that we arent good enough cause we are stuck in our little world. If only we could have the head english teacher Mrs Galagher who is well known for her lectures in BNW/BR teaching us, then life in english advanced would be better. but enough of my problems, how did you all go in your english trials paper 2? hope you all dont have a teacher like me

I got 60% for paper two. It's pretty dissapointing - i buggered up king Lear but thats mainly b/c we had only just read the play and completed an assessment task b4 the trial. We hadnt had enough time to get a real understanding of differnet interpreatations and shit so that really brought my mark down. So yeh we're concentrationg on that heaps at the moment.

Brave New World/Blade Runner-17/20
King Lear-17/20
Telling The Truth-20/20. (We did a radio script, and it went pretty well.)

not very happy with my marks given my average was 96%.

king lear- 18/20 (top mark was 19)
frontline - 18/20 (top mark)
and bnw/br -....17/20 BLAHHHHHGHHH gross. (top mark =19).

so no one got full marks at my school. and a lot of people did very badly.

I didn't do too bad, which was quite a surprise

Transformation: 17 (<-- proud to say that this is marked by the English Head :). He is usually a very hard marker! So I am ecstatic!)
Donne: 18
Powerplay: 17

Our school has the best English teachers. they just teach so well :)

Our teacher is the biggest bitch who has a racial problem with her students with whom she uses words that are supposed to baffle us and make us feel stupid. I think its called inferiority complex. any why english sux!
gmraso is in my class at school, if he has the same opinions as me imagine the rest of the class...;)

BNW &BR- 16/20
Donne- 17/20
Powerplay- 16/20

I think that was about 82%. Im pretty happy with that, especially considering I had five exams in the first week of trials, and had extension english that day as well.

I got 13 for Lear; top was 14 1/2 (we have an evil marker), 13 for BNW/BR(top was 16 1/2) , and 15 1/2 for Frontline (top was 17, and i got 2nd top mark). Our teAChers said we all had a massive problem with quoting, and technqiques fro Brave NEw World. I hate that topic. I think i was ranked about 12th or sumfin. I cam 20th/96 for the trials over all.
So stoked!!!!
