well im starting my study today, and ive made a timetable which i did yesterday, its pretty hectic, if you wanna look lemme know.
anyways, so ive allocated 2hrs to go over the first and second section of paper one, so comprehension and creative writing. im making notes on what i should include; and writing a few stories and editing them.
for essays on coldridge (although i didnt do it) id recommend making paragraphs around central ideas eg. themes or context. and make killer paragraphs with techniques, their effects etc.
then try moulding it to past HSC exam questions, just make sure its malleable.
thats just what im doing though, just gotta be malleable in your response as to fit the question in, just have to make sure it does fit to an extent, and such.

if you have a nice english teacher like i do, im able to email her and get her reply and suggestions, other than that look at exam markers suggestions for better answers and such.

i hope that helped
