Where are all the replies???

Guess i'll be the one to get the ball rolling...

I thought the exam was heaps good-no unexpected questions, pretty straightforward.

i did:
1-Personality-Jezebel
2-Society-Israel
3-Period-n/k egypt during the Ramesside period
4-Additional Society-egypt-From Amenhotep III-Death of Ramses II

All in all i'm happy with it

And more importantly, I'M FINISHED!! WOO HOO!!!! :D

Greece from 440-500 BC
Augustus and the Julio-Claudians
Agrippina II
Sparta

= Gold

But in complete seriousness, that test exceeded even my wildest expectations :)

Now if only the Extension History test tomorrow is also that easy...

ummmm, well i believe u will do fine. (evn tho i have no idea who u are). dont worry, if ur top of ur class ull get heaps of scaling. plus my teacher marks HSC and he said they throw marks away. u may have done less than UR best but to the markers theyll think ur exceptional. u seem to be someone who expects alot from themselves (me too) but wat eva u right will surpass the expectations of the markers. Hows that? good encouragment.

Hatshepsut
New Kindom Egypt to Thutmose IV
The Greek World 446-399 BC
Spartan society

Not bad at all, except for the fact that I ran out of time. My conclusion for NK Egypt was shocking, as were all the last points I made...so rushed. Hatshepsut wasn't bad, although I've never really understood personality questions. Essays were great, Sparta was fine except for the fact that I forgot about land inheritance so that was pretty rusty....
