    Exam Thoughts: Visual Arts

    wow, i did question 5 in section 2, i guess it fit with my artists the best. :/ I would have had no idea how to write a frames essay.. I thought the exam, overall, was a good exam. I was afraid it would be similar to last years exam! I'm so glad it wasn't. Congratulations everyone on finishing...

    Impact of DET laptops

    Is my laptop the only one which is already unlocked? I had it unlocked weeks ago... (Worst decision of my life though!) I found my laptop super useful in year 11, when i was doing german continuers via distance ed, because everything was online. During year 12 i found it useful to type up all my...

    General Thoughts: Textiles and Design

    Yeah, okay, i think i wrote something similar :) Yeah i did 14, We barely studied how they influenced trends or were influenced by trends! I had to loop in something about Australian beach culture and the loosely designed garments. It was an awful answer! haha

    General Thoughts: Textiles and Design

    The first short answer question was the maturity stage one right? It was about product life cycle (a painful dot point).It was more to do with the business side of textiles. so there is the Introduction stage, Growth Stage, Maturity Stage where there is the greatest sales & profit, Supply meets...

    General Thoughts: Textiles and Design

    I actually thought it was okay. I'm hoping i did well. I am actually so relieved that my teacher told me to have 2 historical developments a few days ago! some of the multiple choice were annoying! I couldnt determine what was the 'best' answer. What sections did you find difficult?

    What HSC marks are you aiming for?

    If your teacher set the tests hard, then your assessment marks should be moderated to account for that and your hsc mark will prove it too :)

    Tips and Advice for the Year Ahead

    I had two major works this year, and I can definitely say that textiles took up 3/4 of my time. I was fairly organised throughout the year, but I chose to make a dress completely from scratch so I came across a lot of problems I did not see beforehand, which then affected the time it took to...

    General Thoughts: General Mathematics

    the wording was awful! i think i divided the yearly salary by 12 (monthly pay) because it was asking for a monthly income, so I think that was about $340 or something. Even looking over the test now i can't work out what they were really asking :/ 29(a) confused me. I had seen scatter plots...

    Section II

    the ramp question and the vanishing question threw me off badly. I don't think i did well at all. For me, that was a hard test.

    General Thoughts: English Paper 1 (AOS)

    The Time theme fit me pretty well, my teacher had been predicting it all year, but my creative fit to all the stimuli, not just one :/ So I just chose the grass one because it seemed pretty generic about relationships. I hope I did well anyways. The short answers were so stupid. I pretty much...

    Anybody wanna make bets on paper 1 Theme?

    I've been told that the BOS modifies the HSC question so it isn't the same as the trial questions, it seems like it would be too obvious the other way around. I'm not sure about all the individual schools who write their own papers, but i've been told that the catholic trials and the independent...

    Can you take Panadol before exams?

    Thank you, I'll try my best not to stress so I wont get a headache :) Seriously? That's one of the weirdest things I've ever heard, I don't think that would be that effective. :/

    Anybody wanna make bets on paper 1 Theme?

    Maybe 'Time' will come up, but that's been assessed in some of the trials this year. And to the speech question, i'd just write a speech saying 'in the life of (add your story/main character here)' or something, idk, im hoping it wont be that!

    Can you take Panadol before exams?

    I know this probably seems like a stupid question because panadol doesn't affect what you're writing in an exam, but I wanted to make sure because i get headaches so easily (especially when I stress), can you take panadol before exams? Also, what about stress remedy drops (Bach flower ones)...

    You think they will ask for 2 related texts for belonging essay or module C?

    Yes they can ask "with two related texts" but generally they just ask "at least one" No, they don't always say "at least one". In the past few years (in belonging anyways[2009 - 2010]) they have asked for only one related texts. My teacher just told my class to prepare for two, just in case...
