Hey everyone! Just a discussion to see who got into Nossal as well as to post important dates like the orientation day, elective selection, etc. Congrats to everyone who got a spot in Nossal (or any selective school really) and good luck for future rounds!
NOSSAL 2025 YEAR 9 STUDENTS
Subject: Request for Analytical Insights on "Frankenstein"
Hello everyone,
I will begin my studies in Nossal in 2025. As part of my academic pursuits, I have chosen to analyze Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein." I would greatly appreciate any notes or insights you might have regarding the various themes, characters, and motifs within the text. Your assistance in this endeavor would be invaluable, and I thank you in advance for your support!
RB- NossalStudent Y9 2025 have u alr started analysing, thats craz
Nah just collecting notes and stuff, still reading the chapters
Additionally, a tip from Melbourne High seniors is to never ask students about their results. In Nossal, everyone is happy that they got in; moreover, it is a personal matter and not moral to interrogate them about this.
RB- NossalStudent Y9 2025 alr thx for the tip
RB- NossalStudent Y9 2025 I started reading Frankenstein too and I think that the main themes would include ambition and don't try to do things nature didn't intend for you to do. Basically, ambition and don't play God.
Treasure Island also seems fun
ZarraorTheDinosaur frankies cool but its can be hard to understand at times but is a gold mine for good vocab
ZarraorTheDinosaur terrible for analysis. Trust me the seniors said treasure island is too short eventhough it is a good book
