harro!
just quick a quick question, I've heard that using a text from the stimilus booklet may make me lose marks. Well for one of my essays i have 3 related texts and one of them is a text from the stimilus booklet, will they still consider deducting marks or are they strict as and will make me lose marks

Someone rang the HSC advice line and they said it doesn't matter, you may want to try for yourself though.

my school were fairly against it all. because it doesnt reveal that you've done your own indepth search and study for texts.
