Survivor: English Exam Edition

Around 46,000 students did their English exam today, me being one of them. The English exam sucks; I’m so bad at writing essays . It was alright, but I screwed up a bit of it. Basically, we have to write four essays — Two text response essays (essays based on texts we read in class), a language analysis piece (analyse the ways language is used in some articles), and a persuasive/opinionative piece. I spent too long on the analysis and persuasive pieces (as these are what I’m good at). I completed one of the text response essays and then noticed I only had like 25 minutes or so to do the last one. So it was horribly rushed and probably quite incoherent

So yeah, I’m soooo glad that exam is now over; it was the one exam I was really dreading. The exams I have left are:

Monday 5th November
3:00 PM–4:15 PM — Specialist Maths Exam 1 (non-calculator)

Friday 9th November
9:00 AM–10:15 AM — Maths Methods Exam 1 (non-calculator)

Monday 12th November
11:45 AM–2:00 PM — Maths Methods Exam 2 (calculator)

Wednesday 14th November
11:45 AM–1:30 PM — Physics

Thursday 15th November
9:00 AM–10:45 AM — Chemistry (ewwww )

Friday 16th November
3:00 PM–5:15 PM — Specialist Maths Exam 2 (calculator)

So yeah, after that, No more school! On to University next year. I’m hoping that I get an ENTER score above 87, that way I’ll get into Computer Science at Melbourne University

Edit: Some people were asking about the title of this post. It was referring to my MSN Messenger display name, which I had set to “It’s Survivor: English Exam Edition. 46000 students, 4 hours, 3 essays. Who will survive?” for a while

Buying whole life insurance is a good option for many who wish to ensure that their family is taken care of when they die. This type of insurance can offer security financially to those left behind. The payment can pay for many things that the person would have normally taken care of if alive. Here is a list of the uses when purchasing this type of insurance for your life.
