Composition of the Army: Could include Spartiates, Perioeci, Hypomeiones (Inferiors), Helots and Sciritai. The army itself was make from larger aggregations of units (see below), based on information from Thucydides, who outlines the organisation, however, exact number of soldiers was state...

My friend is betting on the role of Queens. D:

Ehh. -_- Section II was silly, 'nuff said. And I didn't particularly like the Religion and Peace question seemed way to broad and I wasn't sure what they wanted me to do. The multiple choice were a pain, too many I had to make educated guesses, and I think there'll be a bit of controversy on...

Just wanted to wish everyone the very best of luck. n_n Hope everyone is cramming hard, and feeling confident. :) Hope to those who haven't needed to result to cramming, are feeling well prepared too! Hope the paper is fabulous tomorrow, and there's no obscure questions. So yeah, good luck guys. :)

Haha, my thoughts exactly. Studied all day today, and feeling pretty confident. So sleep in here I come! n_n

Agreed. I generally keep my Part A questions at 1-2 pages. Whereas Part B I'll push for 3-4 pages. How you divide your time in this section will also determine how much you write. I usually break up the 45 mintues so that part A has 15-20mins, and Part B 25-30 mins. Depends on the questions and...

Aww man, so much! I wish you lightning speed with learning all that! At least with the historical period you can restrict how much you learn by how much of a risk you're willing to take. Sparta is a lot, but it's also pretty fun! :) I liked Sparta the most. Best of luck! If you need any help...

Hahahaha, yup sure is. n_n Ancient is going to be death of all of us. And I have religion tomorrow to worry about too. D:

Neap Neap Neap. :P Hiya. n_n

Tell me about it. >.< Ancient is sooooo much, and I have SOR to deal with first. For goodness sake, mush all the histories and social sciences together BOS D:<

Yup Yup. n_n Spent the past couple of days studying plus did some past papers. Bring it on SOR, can't wait until I can say it's finally bloody over! How I loathed you so. Grrr.

I don't think they'll ever ask an extended response on geography. Economic exchange is pretty easy, plenty to talk about. Role of Spartan Army was my Trial extended response question so I'm all good with that! haha. n_n Now stop being evil! :P

I have two jobs! Woohoo. n_n Same with others my shifts have reduced during this period, most works will understand that you have to study when you put in for leave or ask for reduced hours. I don't think having two jobs has greatly impacted my HSC, it kept me a lot more healthy and motivated...

12 Marker on Helots....oh please don't scare me. D: I did a past paper that was something like a 10 mark question on Spartan funerary customs .... that was a toughie, and one I needed to have books near to completely answer. Another one was a 12 marker on the role of literature and writing in...

Yeah, totally agree about the multi-choice. I was checking over my answers at the end and was like "well I at least know 8/9 of them are right" most of the others were educated guesses. D: I also did Oceanography, I thought it was brilliant! So thankful for such nice questions! I hardly knew...

Not too bad actually. n_n I was expecting for way worse, haha. Some of the multi-choice threw me a little and a little guess work here and there. But overall a pretty good paper, short responses were pretty easy to deal with. n_n Oceanography questions were a blessing n_n Really happy with it. :)

If you're right I'm going to go give my teacher the biggest hug ever. She had us do a practice response for that question during the last week of school. n_n All the things they could ask, scare my socks off! D: D:

1) We weren't told anything in regards to writing / not writing our level of english. I wrote it anyway. 2) We were also told to write the name of our prescribed text for that section on the front. 3) Nope, never told to write our names. 4) I would assume they've had some sort of training /...

Oh yeah, hopefully no silly greek writers question. D: And no awful art and architecture..... that would be torture. D: Work hard and I'm sure you'll blow away that 20! Keep thinking positive! n_n Good luck for next week. :)

Don't worry, it has your student number on it and that's fine. I'm sure they have a system where they able to find the students centre according to their number. Plus, the exams get marked in centre bundles, and yours will still be intermixed with your school, so someone will eventually see this...
