My assessments are 70% prac and the other 30% is the trials.
I am far better at doing exams and I easily out perform other people in my class in HSC-style exams because I have been doing past papers and practicing for the hsc for a long time.
My teacher is obsessed with pracs and he is very convinced that what he is doing is right and what other teachers do (50% prac, 50% theory) is wrong.
Is he allows to do this?

Your school is allowed to do whatever they want with assessments and can make it 100% prac if they want to

However in my opinion, it does seem a bit stupid that they only exam type situation is your trials.

Pretty much what madharris said. Honestly, it annoys me when schools have pracs worth more than 15-20% because it's not directly tested in HSC.

The biggest problem is that every idiot in the class gets 100% in the prac without even studying.
My physics teacher needs to get his head out of his ass and start to realise that HSC physics isn't real physics where everything should be proven experimentally.
I hope he tries to prove nuclear fission in Q2Q and blow himself up... he is so stubborn and annoying :(
I was interested in doing physics/engineering at uni but fuck it.
