    Plan of attack for the English exams!

    Depends on the questions. What I did in trials was: Paper 1- Creative: 32 mins Short Answer: 42 mins Essay: 45 mins Paper 2: Mod C- 38 mins Mod B- 39 mins Mod A- 41 mins 1 minute left in both lol My general aim though is to spend just over 30 mins on creative and divert the extra time to...

    Multiple choice Q

    Do you know about microeconomic reform? Basically when you deregulate markets, you improve efficiency, which improves productivity, which improves AS (shift to right) as you can produce more with the same amount of stuff

    How many marks would I get for this?

    Chem exams have HEAPS of time. You can overanswer every question to the max and still finish -> this is what I did in trials and I still had 15 mins left.

    Skrzynecki PEOPLEE !

    Are you sure you're an english teacher? The amount of grammatical mistakes etc. in this post is quite substantial. In regards to OP- they have the freedom to specify poems if they choose. They probably won't but they can.

    42 hours

    This. For example in maths, for topics I was confident on I would just do the very end questions but for ones I was more iffy on, I would do more questions than the teacher set. Its year 12- at the end of the day its your HSC- do what you need to do to do well

    ^I don't know about speeches but for Hamlet that would be a pretty easy question I reckon- I would like that.

    Does this make sense? Or did the book make a mistake, because I don't get it

    This sounds like the impact of micro reform on inflation?

    English Advanced predictions

    As long as they: 1. Allow one related for everything 2. Don't specify a chapter of Justice Game 3. Don't give an absolutely retarded creative (like I wouldn't mind a speech or feature article though) I'll be pretty happy tbh

    Probability Question!

    I haven't worked it out but just looking at the above answer- it doesn't seem right. Consider that one plant has a 1/9 chance of reaching maturity so if you have 9 plants, its reasonable to expect one to reach maturity (obviously it doesn't work quite like that) but its a good appromixation. 26...

    Are Band 6s possible based on my raw marks ?

    A lot of those will probs be low B6 but remember that school mark does not necessarily equal HSC marking. And I disagree with the above comment for things like chem- HSC marking is pretty intense and chances are you'll get lower in HSC than trials if you haven't improved in the meantime

    pen or pencil for graphs?

    I've always used pen personally- maybe pencil for a guide graph though

    In the event of a tie

    Tied second has no special implications on internal marks, tied first is an average yes. So in your above case, both students would keep their externals and get 94.5 internal (would appear as 95)

    Best way to tackle upcoming english exam

    No lol that's if you just rewrite your memorised response word for word. The idea behind memorisation is to adapt it to the specific question. So you'll use the exact same quotes and techniques but depending on the question you'll change the linkages between each of the quotes and stuff to put...
