As I normally don't use any prepared essays for this subject, I find it easiest when I'm in an exam to structure my essay in terms of text. Some see this as too simple and prefer to structure it in terms of convention/technique, but the way I do it usually gets me 23+. In regards to talking...

Yes. I always imagined when I was younger that I would study a lot for the HSC and be stressed out, but these exams feel like any other everyday obstacle. I wouldn't call myself apathetic, I do care, but it seems so trivial in the scheme of things. All I want is to get into my course.

For the question on penalties, how many marks do you think will be deducted from an answer for not mentioning one of the seven specified penalities in the syllabus?

10 - crime 12 - workplace 8 - family

Overall, the paper was alright. Multiple choice was the most difficult section for me. I was a little bothered when I first saw the 8 mark question from the crime section, even though it wasn't difficult. I just didn't think we would get such a high mark question on something so little in the...

1. C 2. A 3. B 4. D 5. B 6. C 7. D 8. D 9. C 10. A 11. B 12. C 13. C 14. A 14. B I found the multiple choice section to be the most difficult, as usual. I received 96 in my trial exam, and those four marks were taken off from this section. I assume this time I will lose even more marks from...

I agree about last year's crime section... it was ridiculously easy, as though they were handing out marks for free. Wow. Well at least I guess it's comforting to know that they will take responsibility for asking something that isn't in the syllabus.

It's just a criminal issue you study in depth. From what I've heard, many schools skip over this and make you learn this by doing an assessment on it. Examples include; juvenile justice, domestic violence, organised crime, euthanasia, decriminalisation of cannabis, terrorism, etc.

Thanks for that, I wasn't aware. So do you know what ended up happening with this? Were people given extra marks?

(c) Compare and contrast the problems faced by young male and young female offenders when they come into contact with the criminal justice system. This was from the 2005 paper. Does anyone have any ideas on how to answer this? I can't seem to think of any significant differences in the...

From my understanding, of course it's alright if you don't use first person, just as long as you make it clear you have formed some sort of personal view on the text, even if you did this through an authoritative tone in third person or something.

In today's context of relative values and ever-changing standards, a personal view believes that King Lear's message is that order must be maintained over chaos on both a personal (inner) and broader level, or else conflict and tragedy is inevitable. (Something like this, but not made to sound...

This module is so annoying. I planned on using the same essay (obviously changed to suit the question more) as I did in my trials which received a good mark, but now I'm trying to rewrite it all from scratch because I'm worried about getting a marker that doesn't think the 'readings' are...

S1 - 5 and a half pages S2 - 7 pages S3 - 11 pages In regards to whether the markers take into account anything that isn't written on the lines, I read an examplar response and there was an arrow pointing to another blank page where there was more writing, so I think they do mark it.

That's the thing, you don't need it. Like you said, the obstacles which change your perspective shape and strengthen your human spirit, so at the arrival you are more spiritually entact than you were at the onset. That was the gist of my argument anyway.
