yeah once u hav a bit of an understanding i believe u can do good. If u hav the general idea you can elaborate and b.s. in exams like i always do and it normally works. 2u re is pretty easy marks if u do a little work... my old teacher who kindly left half way through yr 12 was a complete dick.. He had no idea wat so ever and i probable cudve taught the class better then he cud. good Re teachers = hard 2 find

the course(2u) is content heavy, but the exam questions can be very repetitive....
i'm looking to axe sor:D

yeah i reckon it'll be pretty easy to kill but u know wat... its a bit of a lottery in my opinion coz u cover some stuff better then other stuff and other ppl know other areas better so depending upon wats in it, different ppl can do good or bad. Its a lottery wat the questions are and wheather there the ones u know good or not... thats how i c it

yeh to sum extent... but look over the past papers... ull see theres not that much variation they can test u on... the syllabus is really important in SOR... if u have notes that cover all dot points (and their not that difficult just mainly straight forward facts but at the most difficult they ask u to compare and contrast)... then ur set to axe the exam

sometimes the questions are dodgy, like analysing crap

yeah and in the cross re studies they can f*ck u around with the wording sometimes... and some of the media questions are dodgy (4the2unit ppl out there). Fingers crossed it'll be an easy exam. But yeah, naji, i agree with u coz i've got about 6 different past papers and they are all so similar

It's just remembering facts- and lets face it, not many hsc courses let you get away with that anymore!

the only problem with 2u is that they don't give you nearly enough time in the exam to answer all the questions properly, the advantage of this being that in order to test the majority of the course in this time the questions have to be fairly general.

as far as i can see, the only thing robbing me of a precious band 6 is the sucky time limit:)

sor2 is easy!
it's actually my best ranking subject!

the reason is that i actually have a desent teacher :)
having an ex-hsc senior marker and also someone that wrote a religion text book does help :p

all he does is drill band6 responses into our heads and pretty much everything is just read over the notes....

i wish all my other teachers were like this...such as english....
