2011 Rens Roll Call!
ProtonStar:
I'm doing the French Revolution in Semester One and the Russian Revolution in Semester Two. I couldn't imagine doing the French Revolution in Semester Two, considering you don't have much more than a term to cover it. I don't know much about the Russian Revolution as of yet, but I absolutely adore the French Revolution :D There is an astounding amount of information that we need to cover to really grasp an understanding!
I'm not sure what I'll be doing for the exam yet. I suppose it will be whatever I'm more comfortable writing on :P

Yup, you're absolutely right - I did France in Semester One, too. France's AoS1 is relatively short, where as France's AoS2 is ridiculously long, twisty and complex. Russia's the opposite - AoS1 is really long where as AoS2 is probably the shortest of them all - which fits quite well with the length of the terms.
Personally, I'd recommend Russia for the last section of the exam (the section with the extended essay response). Russia's AoS2 is short and straightforward enough that organising a big essay for it will be much, much simpler than organising a big essay for France AoS2.`
ProtonStar:
Haha righty-o! Thank you very much for your advice :)
I did think AoS1 for the French Revolution was quite straightforward! I have accelerating ahead of the class, but I haven't reached AoS2 yet. At least I'll be prepared to get overwhelmed though =P
I couldn't imagine AoS2 for the Russian Revolution to be incredibly complex; it only covers a couple of years after all!

Well maybe we'll all see each other at Monash next year in Arts/Law. Although a 98ish ATAR score is looking a little hard to acheive at the moment (I'd only need a 94 with SEAS, but that's still a lot to ask).
Menang; My teacher actually mentioned your school today. Said she was meeting your teacher, who is also an exam writer/marker, correct? God I'd kill for that opportunity!
ProtonStar:
My school is classed as "underrepresented", but I'm not too sure what ATAR I require to do Law/Arts. Hopefully is significantly less than 98, 'cause I'm definitely going to struggle to get that! :O
