Is anyone thinking of attending?
Has anyone attended in previous years? Was it worth going to?

If you have money to spend on VCE-related things, then go ahead. It's not really informative (pretty much no new information to what you will get from Ms McAlpine) but it can be a nice overview of the course, and possibly a good way to revise.

Michael Adcock is really boring (sad, but true). He tends to drone quite monotonously. Richard Malone is a little better, but again, it won't be anything additional to what you'll learn in class (assuming you pay attention and do the reading ).

That was the general consensus among my class last year too, haha.

Its a good way to know if you're on the right track. I remember Malone saying that if we werent learning anything we didnt know already, thats a good thing because it means that our teachers are teaching us the right thing. So I thought the lectures were useful in that sense.

Ahahaha my friend got a picture with Malone last year LOL

I went last year, and while I wouldn't say it was worthwhile, I did get something out of it. Even if you've got a good handle on all of the content, it's useful in that they do talk about how to write a response, mistakes to avoid, and what the examiners are looking for in a response. I fangirled for around two whole minutes when I saw who the speakers were and was all like, 'OH GOOD GOD, I'VE READ YOUR BOOK.' Michael Adcock on the French Revolution was pretty boring, in all honesty. But Malone's pretty decent. Either way, if you have the money to spend on it, then there's no harm in attending.
