What do we write in?? (1 Viewer)

[Jeo]

In the actual exam, do we use HSC booklets? How does it work? Do you have to start a new booklet per question or something?

 

[Huss]

something like that, makes marking for them easier. but i think it would b better to worry about ur exam rather than how they do it

 

[Winston]

yeah new booklet its a waste of paper lol

especially question 1 dammit

 

[Jeo]

Im not worried about my exam. Im worried about wasting a few minutes at the start working out how it works. It could mean not getting a few marks in Q 7 or 8.

So we are going to have like 8 booklets by the end?!

Thats alot.

 

[Huss]

each booklets a couple of pages so dont worry

 

[aNg3L_iReNe]

each question goes to differnet teacherzz~~

 

[piccaninny]

each booklet has number of pages eg 4, 8, 16. for every question you must use separate booklet at the end of the exam you must have minimum 10 booklets or more. if you could do at all q 10 you must still write you number q number, so the BOS people wont feel guilty and think that they lost your paper.

Thats good... At least no papers will get lost!!

My Ext 2 teacher lost my q4 and she was like "its not my fault!"

Stupid biatch! But yeh, the booklet idea is a good one

 

[iambored]

yeah, a new booklet for each question, i think they are the same booklets as english


do they just put a pile of booklets on your table at the start of the exam?

 

[piccaninny]

yeah they use same booklets. i stole from school about 3 BOS booklets and practice all my questions in it.
no you have to up your hand up and they bring you booklets

 

[Affinity]

[Jeo]

-piece of string
-a watch/timer
-wrist pad (if you need one)
-water

most importantly, DON"T FORGET WHAT YOU"VE LEARN SINCE KINDERGARTEN!!!

Fatmuscle, are you serious or kidding? Why would we need a piece of string?

Also, do we REALLY need a protractor? They not going to ask us to measure an angle, will they?

 

[Lazarus]

You'll never know what will come in handy.

Though I think the pieces of string were more useful for the School Certificate.

 

[Affinity]

Since he mentioned not anything about a calculator, I guess fatmuscle must have had an implant, you cheat!

you don't really need protractors and strings.

what you should get is a template with the curve y=x^2, coz you probably will have to draw a parabola for 2 unit.

 

[fatmuscle]

piece of string - incase your pen breaks?

lol I dunno why I put that. i was jsut listing the contents in my pencil case. (which still hasn't been cleaned out since i finished my HSC 2 years ago.)

but as james said, more useful in SC - the geography part. Dunno about HSC geography though.

protractor - incase you would like to draw a diagram to scale?


BTW, if did forget one VERY IMPORTANT ITEM!!!

CALCULATOR!!!!!!!!!
