oh my hand is so sore.

How does everyone think they went.
Does anyone else think that questions required us 2 write way to much, i am upsat cos i didn't get to write as much as i could, and really display what i learnt...even though i wrote two booklets for each question.

I think i went well but not the band 6 i was hoping for!

I could not agree more. I did so well in class and assessments, around the 90 or high 80s mark, and then the exam makes it so much harder. I couldn't agree with you more.

Damn CAFS

You know, out of all my exams, this may be the one that I do the worst in. Including Maths Extension 1 and Advanced English modules paper. Even though I've been topping my CAFS class I seriously doubt my performance in that exam.

My hand still hurts...and I didn't dare take a sip of water from my water bottle 'cause I knew I would've run out of time for sure- I only just finished.

I had all these extra ideas but no where near enough time to express them onto the page.

So long band 6...so long UAI of 90+...so long uni course pref. numbers one, two...and three...

What happens if a majority do not go too well, does it scale up? I believe I did well in my school mark, what bearing will that have with the HSC? If they cut out one module, my essays would be better, I had to resort to dot-pointing my ideas as I started running out of time.

I spent a fair while working that out, the rest were fair easy. I thought that exam was good, but it depends on what you interpret the question to mean, I just interpreted it in the best way I thought. As long as you explained your ideas, I'm sure you'll get your marks. You'll be fine!

I hated the individuals and work 15 mark question. For some reason it really threw me and i only got out 2 and a half pages on it. so annoying. There is waaaay too much content to know. I hate it when u studied massive sectiosn and they aren't in the exam! its so frustrating!

OMG how sweet to get someone else's mark if they beat you (but you came first for internal assessments). I'd be so happy. *joins in and hopes*

Sorry to hear about u being sick and all though. Dot pointing's OK. It's better than nothing. If you get lucky each of those points could be worth a couple of marks each (?). I dunno. The marking scheme for CAFS is pretty screwed up. :rolleyes:
