    How to structure an essay for critical readings

    I'm not too sure about how to structure my essay either. What is really getting at me is how should I go about balancing my essay out. How much of your core text should you discuss in detail as compared to your discussion on readings and productions? I've asked several teachers, and they have...

    Existentialism

    What's existentialism about? This philosophy is somewhat abstract, hence confusing to me. I've read several articles and definitions, but some of the things mention contradict each other. So far, the most common thing that has come up is the questioning of the meaning of existence and the...

    Study Frequency

    I think besides completing your homework everyday and reflecting on what you've learnt that day, it's important to spend at least another 2hours of effective study. You can slowly increase the study time as you get used to it. Although people study with different effectivity, putting in the...

    choosing subjects all over again

    I would choose the same subjects, i guess... But I also wanted to study Biology and Ancient History, but that would be too many units and not enough time and capacity to study all.

    45 minutes in an english exam, how many words?

    I'm ambidextrous, but I've broken two of my left fingers and fractured my wrist from an accident a fortnight ago, so I won't be able to use both hands for my trials...

    Area of Study Stimulus Booklet Notes

    I take it that "The Town Where Time Stands Still" isn't very widely used.

    Telling the Truth - Related Texts

    "Race: The Power Of An Illusion" was a documentary that was on ABC this evening. Though I didn't get to watch the entire documentary, I think it may be a possible choice as a related text. Anyone that watched it, what are your thoughts on it in relation to representing the truth?

    Supp Texts - Imaginative

    I'm using Spirited Away as one of my related texts. I can't really decide on the second one though. Maybe Colin Tompson's 'The Paradise Garden' since it ties in well with any of Coleridge's conversation poems and/or KK. Otherwise, Shaun Tan's 'The Red Tree'. I like the latter a lot more but I'm...

    Welcome

    I agree when you al say that people are working harding now. I'm quite proud of myself for the amount of effort I'm putting into my work this year. What really annoys me is that some of my really good friends don't really listen in class and are kinda disctracting and she knows it too. Oh well...

    What advice can year 12 pass on to year 11?

    I'm of class 2006 but I sat for my IPT HSC in back in yr10 (2004). The mark I got didn't reflect my true capabilities. So from what little experience I have of undertaking a HSC course, here's what I have to share: 1. Don't forget or ignore your friends. You'll need your friends and they'll...
