i think the real topic will be bit more broad i hope
2024 Yr 8's hoping to get in a selective school
Ronaldo work on your grammar brother, especially capital letters and commas. ask chatgpt for specific problems with your grammar and try to work through them.
Ronaldo u can only bring 2 black or blue pencils in a zip lock bag with a clear plastic water bottle and maybe a pencil into the exam itself, mole phones have to be completely switched off not on silent. Also calculators and any other for of electronic devices re not allowed. Students may bring an analogue watch to keep track of time by themselves although no smart watches are allowed. so ye, hope that helps and gl,
Ronaldo It is terrific but incorporate a collocation at the start of your sentence such as: 'The Google Street car is a new cutting-edge and innovative technology...' This could furthermore engage the readers and ameliorate your essay. Moreover, your paragraphs are mostly clear but some sentences could be broken into two or even removed since it can create a sense of confusion and interruption of flow in your sentence. Improving this will result in a smooth text that is fluent. In the time limit present, the essay is poignant although strengthening the conclusion can provide readers with a good note to lave with. This can strengthen and improve your marks in the test.
mhs-grinder mate his essay is not poignant man, there was no need for you to say that, even when you shared your essay, you were using good vocab, but again, too over the top, examiners don't want to look only for good vocab, but for the flow of the sentences, bruh "collocation" like its only a discussion man. no offense or anything but what you do currently translates to your own writing and I'm sure, you wont come up with all these words in the 20 min time limit for each so for you instead of focusing solely on vocab, improve your flow and meaningfulness of your work. (again no offense but when you say it like that it comes across as vain and servile)
mhs-grinder Does anybody know whether white-out is allowed or not. What happens if you make a mistake on the answer sheet if it isn't allowed.
AverageMultiChoiceTest i reckon it is bc it isnt prohibited on their website
no it isn't i remember reading somewhere on the website it wasn't allowed, unless I'm mistaken
If it isn't what am I meant to do if decide the answer is b instead of e and stuff like that?
AverageMultiChoiceTest u could just bring those pens that have those round rubbers attached on them
mhs-grinder poignant means sadness or smth like that uk that right also it couldnt be poignant bc it talks about why google street cars should be given to our government

Is a digital watch allowed? Not a smart watch but a digital one, since I don't have any other one.
If not I'll have to go buy one
And for those asking how to change an answer, they'll show on the day. But you just cross it out and shade your new one
To change a second time you shade and circle the new one
It was like this last year, and this answer was released by acer

Hey guys, I wrote a persuasive text in 17 mins. I'm going to type it and you guys let me know what I could improve on.
Drunk people should be imprisoned on the first offence (persuasive)
Just imagine you were peacefully driving on the freeway and then out of the blue, you got in a horrific car crash and you have issues for the rest of your life all because someone was drink driving. This is a massive ongoing issue which is why drunk drivers should be imprisoned on their first offence because this law will finally intimidate them to drive soberly, there will be a reduced amount of traffic accidents and people in general will be safer.
Firstly, if drunk drivers get imprisoned on their first offence, they will be scared to drink drive in the first place. Statistics show that drink driving rates are skyrocketing which begs the question, why is this happening? This mainly happening due to the fact that the current law is not intimidating at all, and people feel as if they can get away with drunk driving with only a small fine. This mindset can only be altered by imprisoning drunk drivers on their first offence. Furthermore, if you were placed in the shoes of a person who decides that they want to drink drive, would you do it if the stakes were so high and you could be placed behind bars if you were caught? I don't think so but since the consequences are so diminutive for a crime this bad, they don't care if they have to pay such a small fine. This just shows that drunk drivers must be punished severely even on their first offence to prevent major mishaps.
Secondly, people should be arrested and placed behind bars on their first drunk driving charge so there are way less accidents. A chief of police has revealed that loads of fatal car accidents are caused by people under the influence of alcohol. If we place drunk drivers behind bars, we will have way less loss of life on the roads. Studies conducted by some of the best fatal accident researchers have shown that if there were no drunk drivers on the road, the death rate caused by car accidents would absolutely plummet. If we implement this, no innocent civilian will have to pass away just because someone else was being irresponsible.
Some people may argue that it would be too harsh and cruel to imprison drunk driving on their first offence. However, this is totally wrong as people are losing lives just because some people decided to drive while under the influence which is a decision mainly decided by choice.
To sum up, drunk drivers must be imprisoned even on their first offence because people will finally be intimidated by the law, there will be less car accidents, and everyone can just overall be safe. If this law is put into place, we will be living in a peaceful world where we do not have to worry about fools who make the wrong choice and put people's lives in danger.
TryingforSCHS great piece solid 8/10 but work on flow and when u say statistics use numbers like percentages as it shows u have done heavy research on the topic and add a little more emotive appeal to create guilt for the people that drink and i reckon with those added your marks will improve and for your rebuttal include a little more sentences
TryingforSCHS yeah solid 7-8/10, gotta say there are many good things to take out of this, first of all, nice intro where you weaved your arguments in a sophisticated way, nice choice of vocab, not too over the top as this can be overriding, strong arguments although try not to be too repetitive, and nice conclusion. So, first of all, try not to give evidence or anecdotal quotes unless you are 100% sure about them, also, try to extent the rebuttal a bit as it is a bit bland and not even with the length of your other arguments, also, i mean you could use some better words for example "which begs the questions", you could say engenders the question which basically means to make something come up (like the thought of it in this context). Overall great effort, with more tweaking this should be aa or sup
got 52/60 for the vr better education ones with a 25 min time limit, could've gotten like another 5 questions right
