HSC English Question Thread
lauren.king20:
How do you know what quotes to use? What do you do if the quotes don't match the question or aren't specific enough?
Chocolatepistachio:
You should prepare quotes with techniques based on the themes presented in the text.
You should practice adapting paragraphs you have written to different questions under exam conditions

Hey everyone, I just wanted to ask what the differences are between English Standard and English Advanced for the Common Module. I've had a look at a couple Standard papers and they don't seem too different; could I use those as practice as well? (I do Advanced).

Hey, alice343!
Both streams of English do the same content for the Common Module (the prescribed texts list is even shared across them, rather than there being two separate ones). The only difference is that the questions are regulated for differentiation purposes between the students' abilities to better gauge performance and facilitate scaling. In short, you could definitely use Paper 1 for additional Common Module practice and vice versa; those in Standard can also use Advanced's Paper 1's :) The more exposure you have to possible questions, the better 8) Hope that helps!
Angelina ;D
