I have good Comparative essays and poetry essays that i could give back in return. namlub and finality i hope this is better for yous! :P

Capital I... just kidding :P I would help you out with a role of women essay but I basically have a half written one, need to start again at this stage I think.

I saw my "i" after I had posted it! ha I don't see how you could write a whole essay about the women though, I can't think of enough to say?

-Ophelia symbolizes innocence, she can't survive in the corrupted environment of Elsinore, flower imagery associated with her
-Ophelia contrasted with Hamlet - Hamlet pretends to be mad while Ophelia genuinely goes mad, both Ophelia and Hamlet lose their fathers, the fact that Ophelia can't deal with similar circumstances to Hamlet shows Hamlet's strength of character
-Hamlet's attitude towards women, "get thee to a nunnery" scene, when Hamlet chastises Gertrude, a lot of Hamlet's disillusionment with life is due to his disgust at his mother and the way he feels betrayed by Ophelia
-Ophelia is expected to obey her father without question, Gertrude seems incapable of an independent existence and marries Claudius immediately after her husband's death - this is due to society's attitude towards women and the way Gertrude and Ophelia have been taught to act


Just a few points off the top of my head, haven't looked at Hamlet in a few weeks so I can't remember much more.

edit: you could also talk about women representing deception, "god hath given you one face and you make yourselves another" or something like that.

I've got a feeling they're going to put up the same exams as last year. Just a hunch....Could be slightly problematic for english though

What :O I don't understand?

To be honest, I don't fully understand myself! It came to me in a dream and my dreams have a tendency of coming true! For example; Last week I dreamt that I'd be eating weetabix for breakfast. Wanna know what I had for breakfast? That's right, weetabix.

Business lads any clue please help :O

Business or French essay tips anybody??

Most likely experiments: Boyle's Law, fundamental frequency of a stretched string, resistivity, one of the specific heat ones, possibly equilibrium for coplanar forces (the metre stick one).

I reckon Joules Law could come up too? But the expts. are pretty easy imho! There's no hard equations which is where I always fall down :pac:

Any hints on what to learn for business and home ec??.. both HL!
PLEASE HELP!!

Defi make sure you Know fish And eggs!! Also nutrient wise most likely will be B group vitamins, lipids, and minor minerals but look over carbohydrates also.
Household technology is due is go over the appliances and marraige and the elderly for socilogy, ih and sensory analysis

for section c, social science, special needs and education would be worth while lookin over. They milked every question possible on the family so it's unlikely to come up

Thank youu
But eggs came up in our assignments and usually anything that does come up in the assignment wont come up in the exam ? And fish came up in 2010 so do ya think it will come up so soon again?

What way would that work?
