Im currently dead. or undead.
Just finished my anc history trials today.
Boy my hand was sooo sore. I swear, I've got a permanent dent in one of my fingers where the pens usually rests.
I'm as tired as hell. Sorry for the rant. Buy yeh u asked how we were :)

Hope the trials goes well for u guys! I had to BS soo much. Esp. abt historians and their quotes. I think a few of my quotes for Persians were mixed up! lol.argh. ah heck. hmmm, at least i feel confident abt a few of them essays i wrote.

The Ancient History Exam Was The Worst Experience Of My Life. How Do They Expect Us To Write Three Eight Page Essays????
In my HSC exam I wrote three 10 page essays... typed! (I have arthritis, special consideration), and my society section (Mycenae) was about the same. (I got a band 6 in Ancient...)

Oh, and I thought the Ancient exam was fun...

Wow, that's mighty impressive. Typed pages as in the same size as a normal word document, or as those pages in the HSC booklets?

same size as a normal word document- 12 point font, double spaced though (Board of Studies regulations for those typing- same as English Extension 2 for those who do it). All on A4 paper, although labelling it at the end was a bit of a bitch. But I did it in the trial so I just wrote at the top "Personality page 1- (can't remember)" etc. The supervisors just stared. :p
