English is awesome.
2011 - English, English Language, Philosophy, Indonesian SL, Outdoor and Environmental Studies.

“We are all alone, born alone, die alone, we shall all someday look back on our lives and see that, in spite of our company, we were alone the whole way. I do not say lonely -- at least, not all the time -- but essentially, and finally, alone. This is what makes your self-respect so important, and I don't see how you can respect yourself if you must look in the hearts and minds of others for your happiness.”
― Hunter S. Thompson

English sucks!
About Philosophy

When I see a youth thus engaged,—the study appears to me to be in character, and becoming a man of liberal education, and him who neglects philosophy I regard as an inferior man, who will never aspire to anything great or noble. But if I see him continuing the study in later life, and not leaving off, I should like to beat him - Callicle

Is this what this thread is turning to?  "English is the best", "English sucks"?

this is disturbing me so much

ive been calculating possible scores, a 1 or 2 mark difference in the english score will change a 96 to a 98 or 99. desperately need to improve english.

Welcome to my life. Well, not really, this year I'll be doing English 3 + 4 for the second time. Yeah. Sometimes I wonder why I bother to wake up in the morning.

I honestly don't understand why its such a big deal, I could rant on about it for days on end until I die from hunger, but whats the point?

Keep it in your pants buddy! I still don't know which block I have spares in. I don't want to mess up any of my other subjects since I have pretty decent teachers for each.

The physics department is rubbishhhhh, you're better off going into a better english class. And since english is crucial to a good ATAR, you better think again! ;D Spare periods are Wednesdays (week 1 and 2) period 3&4 and Fridays (week 2) period 4. Not sure about ILP.

I thought I was good at English.. then I joined ATARNotes.
My teacher last year marked me so easy, it's ridiculous, even the people who were illiterate got B's, so now I go into Year 12 thinking I'm awesome at English when in actuality I'm fairly mediocre compared to everyone else in the state.. FML.

My only hope atm is the study guide written by the gods of English which I have purchased from AN Notes.. this I hope will give me the skills I need to achieve English success.

;-; I took the thoughtless, rather massive risk of just doing literature by itself. SIGHHHHHH

it's really hard to now expect anything above a 35 in literature- I mean its probably possible but eh...

I actually really enjoyed English, but got screwed over by the Language Analysis on the end of year exam, that's the thing with English, it's very easy to get screwed over :(
