My only motivation to do Methods past exams was to find out what happened to Tassy

sometimes when i got a question wrong, it was relieving to think that Tasmania Jones has finally died.

I bet the exam authors think they're funny. They aren't.

Tasmania Jones is the ever unfolding, exciting tale told by the VCAA exam writers. You'll see him recover rare diamonds and emeralds, grow wheat, battle against snakes and build desalination plants. The next installment will be coming out late spring, at a Methods Exam 2 near you.

One of the methods teachers at my school is actually responsible for Tasmania Jones.
I'm being 100% serious lol, he's the one who actually invents/makes questions incorporating Tasmania Jones in them lol, but apart form that, the other teachers at my school haven't done anything that stands out. XD


English [14] Methods [19] Specialist [16] Chemistry [15] Physics [18]

ATAR: 33.60


You do realize that in order for us to get ATARs of 80-90+, there has to be people at the other end of the spectrum right?

That's interesting because I understood that teachers who write for the VCAA examinations are not allowed to be teaching or tutoring or lecturing in that subject in the same year.
