Was it just the analysis or the writing task as a whole??

Anyone write an analysis on a single opinion piece instead of both?

Or anyone write two part 1 essays, two part 2 essays, or on the same text for both part one and two?
rediction of Scores:

English: 40 (hopefully) ; Spec: 40, Methods: 40-45, Physics 35, Enhancement: HD. Last year- History 38; I.T 42.

Hopeful ENTER 98. (I need it for my scholarship :()

hahahah that'd be devistating, especially with the two part 1's or two part 2's or the same text thing, as they only correct the first one.

PoV is worth 20 marks out of 120. (Only 1/6th)

I got a 5.5 / 10 for a section of history last year, and still managed a 38 (marked up to a 40).

There's still hope! :P

im so bad with time management last year i did history too only wrote about 1/3 if that of the essay worth 20 marks and pulled a 38 too. how the eff did i manage that. i thought i was headed for a 30, IF that. i also did not study, and sat there bullshting for 80% of the questions. maybe english will surprise me like history*

*unlikely, seeing as finishing english seems to be a lot more important. and i only get lucky with marks once i think

Anyone notice the tiny screwup with the header of the exam booklet? It says 2007 ENGL EXAM up to page 7, but after that, it says 2006 ENGL EXAM. This confused some people (as well as some of the supervisors), so about half way into it, someone informed us that it was a typo. VCAA and their stupid mistakes (mid-year Physics exam, anyone? :P)
