Who despises english advanced already? (3 Viewers)

[Rafy]

We've got it easy compared to a few decades ago. (Although i must admitt i do like what they had to do back then. Its a much better course comapred to the post-modern crap we learn today.)

Im doing othello right now in eng adv. so pm me if u need help

Im getting a 3000 word essay assignment for english extension in a few weeks

Thanx, i'll keep that in mind.

 

[m0ofin]

I'm glad many people agree with me , not suprisingly.

I'm gonna go against the grain here and disagree with you. I actually quite like Adv English (for now I suppose ) and writing stuff about poems is pretty fun. Of course I'm sure it'll grow more tedious as time goes on

doin othello nex...i fink im gonna die soon !!
english totallli SUX!~~!

I'm doing that now, it's okay, we watched the movie and bahaha, it's so rude. I had to cover my eyes and ears *cringes*

 

[airie]

What's wrong with you m0ofin? Hit your head on a tree or something? >.<'''

lol just kidding Seriously though, these analyses are driving me nuts *pulls hair* I mean you just write the same old thing over and over again...how great :S Poetry is ok though. But not digging 100 miles underground for some ways of conveying meaning in some texts :S

 

[SoulSearcher]

Haha I dont mind english advanced that much. Its just that I would be rather doing math than english (I can't believe I just said that )

 

[chocolate_lover]

Sadly I agree with you! I think I prefer maths because there is a definate right or wrong answer.

 

[vizman]

Sadly I agree with you! I think I prefer maths because there is a definate right or wrong answer.

totally agree, english is too subjective for my personal liking

 

[singhn]

actually for me - adv english is fun! soz guys but like we are learning about identity and deconstructing poetry and one english lesson it was so much fun wif this definition game! *geek written on forehead*:wave:

 

[SoulSearcher]

yeah true, plus there is the added fact that it is easier the second time around

*gasp* I'm crazy! *looks for a tree* Nah, I wouldn't want to hurt the tree

Hmmm, yeah I guess after doing it week after week is a bit bleh but it's still quite fun

totally agree, english is too subjective for my personal liking

Ahaha, I personally like it because of its subjectivity. I don't mind either maths or english but it's cool how english respects different opinions, wait, does it? If it does, yay!

 

[KimmorleyKiller]

I like it, were doing STAR WARS!

 

[Ankita]

wow....u ppl actually seem to be getting somewhere with advanced english....we are "critically analysing" picture books....or shud i say...ruining them!!!!!!! The most boring and useless subject so far....had an assessment today...no one had a clue what they were doing..lol..

 

[airie]

We're having an assessment TODAY. Ahh great. And it's in the last two periods. So a whole day of stressing and 'studying' (how do you ever study for English anyway??) awaits me ahead :S Techniques...what are there...me poor drained brain...

 

[SoulSearcher]

I just received my first English assessment today. And its an exam done four weeks from now, we just have to find supplementary material for the exam. This is going to take a while

 

[airie]

I heard that the 07ers (that's us) would be the last oens doing Journeys. Is that true? Gee hopefully it won't be another fat chunk of analysis time...:S

 

[m0ofin]

Ahaha, we got ours today, it's not an exam though. Three different pieces to be handed in in three consecutive weeks -_-"

And Airie, I've heard that too, my teacher said the next one is (or could be) Powers or something.

 

[Wooz]

I heard that the 07ers (that's us) would be the last oens doing Journeys. Is that true? Gee hopefully it won't be another fat chunk of analysis time...:S

Yeah it's ture they extended the 2004-05 english syllabus area of study 'journeys' till 2007. Well at least we'll have a ton of resources and stardards from 04-06. Poor 2008's they get the new SC syllabus and they've got the new 08 english HSC syllabus ahead of them.

[Boxxxhead]

Yep SoulSearcher I got Faro.

We never did that exam assessment you're talking about... we had one but it was a comprehension and later in the year.

Good luck everybody with your English assessments

 

[m0ofin]
