    do you think the HSC questions this year have been more general then previous years?

I studied so hard and got in there, and was like "waaahhh?" The questions were incredibly general and not specific. I was...

    who did you think the bnw quote was by?

    Too be honest I thought it was by Bernard, and am feeling a little stupid that I didn't pick up on it being John. Regardless, I never identified who said it, I just refered to it in my essay. And I did read the book. I prepared by extracting techniques out of the movie and book, rather than just...

    Re: How was modern Exam? Wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. The only question that really got me was Arab-Israeli, bleh. My worst topic. I linked the "history is for winners" question to Winston Churchill; you know his line about how "winners write the history." I thought i was...

    How do you feel after an exam??

    If it's the end of an exam, but I still have exams to go, then I usually feel the after exam high for around two hours. After that I start to worry about the nest one. Buuut if it's the end of exams altogether (November 6th here I come!), then it is just pure joy, with no thought towards the...

    Only one making NOtes STILL?

    I've looked at various past papers, and I think that when it comes down to it the question is going to concentrate on the fundamental ideas, such as themes, techniques, quotes etc in the text/s you have studied. The question might change, but the topic is still the same, and it is your ability...

    What do you want to be when you grow up? Plans for after the HSC?

    Right now I'm really considering Speech Pathology at USYD, which needs a UAI of 87.45. But that could change. I think I may just apply to a large number courses and see what my UAI ends up being. Subjects: English Advanced, General Maths, Biology, Visual Arts, Modern History, Extension...
