How is that even possible? Arn't u supposed to just write in the lines they give u?

I feel the same way...i'm in advanced maths, but i suck at basic skills and can't do anything unless i spend the week before memrizing how to do it! I guessed some of the multiple choices and i didnt know how to do some of the stuff from the writing section. Most people in my grade said they...

I was thrown a bit by the extended response. it said discuss the population trends, which was fine, but then it went on to say talk about urban planning and ecological sustainability?? I knew how to answer it, but there was a whole bit i had planned about the ageing population which i wasnt sure...

I said there was no government change..... All up i thought the test was pretty straightforward, extended response was fairly easy....although i think i mucked up the decade study....oh well, its all over!

Would they mark you down heaps if you did? I definatley learned i need to READ the question in these exams lol.

Re: Science SC I hated this exam. It was so skills based....all the content i studied wasn't in it, or if it was, it was used up in multiple chocie. So much of the exam was just source material and then writing from the top of my head. Oh and what the hell is a crucible? I pulled that one from...

I think i did pretty well in the speech, but i made the most ridiculous mistake on the news report. I completley missed where it said write a report about 'Morgan' high school (even though it was written in big block letters), and decided to write about MY school. Ahaha my marker is just going...

Human Rights Agreements: Universal Declaration of Human Rights- ensures equality before the law, freedom of speech right to an education etc. Developed by the United Nations in 1948. Response of the Government to Human Rights Challenges: generally the government has responded well, ensuring...

Ok so the school cert is tomorrow, who feels prepared? who's cramming? and who just doesn't care?

i'm not sure about the 15 steps...i know our school made us learn eight though. they were: 1. Aim of the investigation 2. Focus questions- developing a set of questions that will help you to gather information about the issue. 3. Primary / Secondary Data- working out which questions need...

I think you would only ever be asked to write in detail about one of them...., although some of the others may come up in multiple choice.

I'm fairly certain that this is no longer a part of the current history syllabus. That being said, you may get a question that is 'similar' in the section relating to Australia as a global citizen in the post war period. If you did, you could talk about how Australia's main trading partner...

burn all my books:)

spot on

Speaking to a friend who has decided to drop out next year, she explained that her reaosn for leaving was because the hsc didn't offer many courses that interested her. So if you could include any course in the HSC what would it be? Personally, I've always thought a course in politics or...

lol our school did exactly the same for the multiple choice section of science. I'm hoping to get band 6's for everything...except maths that is.

I don't even know what a vector line is! I go to a comprehensive high school and there is a real mix between quality teachers and dodgy ones. For example, my english teacher doesn't deserve his pay packet: i have done zero work over the past two years and have learnt nothing. However, people at...

For history I have a technique that i use, where i type up a set of focus questions that i need to know, just basics like "What year was the petrov affair?" etc etc,a nd then print it off and see which ones i can answer. This helps me to remember the small details like dates, people names etc...

I'm not sure about websites...but there are certain books you can buy that have a full breakdown of all the text types, their structure, and how to write them. I have 'English Workbook- Essential Skills', which is from excel, and costs about $15 from dymocks / angus & robertson. If you don't...

I think that if parents wanted their children to recieve spiritual advice then they would send them to a religious school. Why do school's need chaplains? why not increase funding for school counsellors for example? Our school can only afford to pay a school counsellor two days a week or...
