I honestly don't think the word discretion is that hard to understand

My year seemed to find it pretty hard.....

That's exactly what I'm saying.
This site comprises of above average kids who study a lot, and is by no means a representation of the states candidature.

Haha, we're not allowed to walk out. Some "college policy" rubbish.
I would never walk out anyway.
Oh, we're allowed to leave when we finish. But yeah I'd always stay until the end, like even if I was a faster writer, I would stay, double check what I wrote etc etc
p.s. thanks for the sample paragraph you posted in that other thread. I followed the structure, and it made my essay sound much smarter/cohesive

No worries.
My essay that I made in the holidays fit the question perfectly, so family was so jizz for me.
Consumer was alright too.
Crime was really good.
Multiple choice was amazing! LOL JOKES

If you're talking about sanctions/pacts between nations, they're legal responses. I thought the World Order questions would be broader tbh, but family was too easy, as was crime and HR and multiple choice and everything else in between.
No, just negotiation– not sanctions. I used the AU's negotiations with Kenya to stop the genocide in 2008 as an example.

"Peace rights, are a collective right... To peace."
Questions were all good, crime was especially delicious, I've had a discretion essay since the start of the year. But ran out of time and left crime last! I wrote it in like 20 minutes and was like "Discretion is good." Or "Judges and magistrates sometimes choose punishments that are bad." I sounded like 8 years old! Haha.

Literally my experience. Great exam, human rights was bliss, crime was good, MC was good bar 1 or 2, consumer was very broad and easy and family was equally as easy. AhhhhhhMC was fairly simple I might've got a few wrong (1 or 2)
Short Answers couldnt have been easier
The crime question I expected it, apparently it screwed some people
Consumer - broad very easy, family same as consumer though i ran out of time didnt get time to write a conclusion

Omg you know that feeling when your confident and then you read other peoples responses online... I HAVE THAT!!!
fcken crime section screwed me over so bad... "assess the role of discretion and its importance in criminal sentencing and punishments". first thoughts: fck me.............

Omed? Forgive me, I'm new to being active on BOS.
I'm kind of disappointed to see that people found the exam so easy - the course has really being going downhill for a while.

While the exam had no major curveballs, I think saying it was 'easy' is a bit to the extreme. The fact that we've been arguing about the multiple choice on the other thread attests to this. Then again, this website is not a representation of the rest of the state. Lots of people from a local high school near where I used to live are exclaiming about the difficulty of the test on facebook...
I still think It's a terrible indictment against the education system that I can study one night before the HSC major exam and still do well.
