How did you go?

[mseleanor]

To clarify, that strange machine-life figure in the Winter Palace graphic in Russia Section B was a robot... VCAA used a remake of the original photo in which somebody had photoshopped in a robot. Obviously a mistake, but wow!

But even minus the robot, the graphic was difficult :/

oh VCAA :') so it's alright that I made no mention of it then?

Oh definitely, I made no mention of it. And according to The Age no one who referred to it will be disadvantaged.

Completely flunked Part A - Russia..... rambled with little detail   
Part B China I felt really good about though - hopefully the examiners think so too!
What mark is roughly needed for a 32+?

I presume that everyone found Russia diffcult so don't beat yourself for it. That's good mate at least you did great on China . Hmmm I am taking a guess but B or B+ but if high 30's maybe High A and or low A+??

thanks dude! what would a B+ be out of 80 (160?)

I did Russia part A and China part B too...

I dunno, I answered all the questions but my essay was pretty crap =/

I feel good! Did France section A and Russia section B, loved both really! Had just been reading about the Vendée earlier today

Russia source analysis was tough, even had trouble locating two groups. I came up with some bull about the Winter Palace and dead guard representing the Provisional Government ahah.. And the robot! Gave me a bit of a chuckle, haha!

Ah I sat there going, is that the aurora battleship? I'm pretty sure battleships don't look like that...

Luckily I didn't end up mentioning it!

I didn't even realize that was a robot at first and I really didn't take into consideration really..

Russia Section A was hard, I found it really difficult, but I brought it home with China Section B, thought I killed it, hoping for 65+

And for anyone that wasn't sure, that Russia graphic was on the October takeover on the Winter Palace, didn't like the graphic so I went with China, which was great.

China was exactly what i wouldn't it to be, i had historians lined up for that question. I think i killed the whole of section B

France wasn't as easy but it wasn't bad, could have been much worse

Overall I'm happy with that exam, i think it went well

Hope everyone else is confident as well
