who here has done it?

personally I thought some of the MC was a bit tricky, you needed to have very good understanding of the questions though..

although tbh I didn't get to study. Otherwise the paper was actually pretty easy and straightforward, but I'm not looking at anymore than 80...

I have the CSSA trial tomorrow :\ mind me asking what your essays (both the short crime + 2 options) were on? The changed syllabus leaves it pretty open, with the specimen paper offering little guidance besides structure.

Hmm hopefully all options take that approach - very basic, with the ease of tying in the contemporary issues.

the crime 15 marker is based on the effectiveness of young offenders act or something related to young offenders

Once again, I hope I get that one. Ahh, effectiveness is potentially the easiest to do.

For the focus study extended response, do we always have to incorporate contemporary issues into it?
The question will guide you, but the changing in the syllabus meant there was an increased focus on them, so I'd always try and incorporate them, even if it's not specified that you must.

Do you reckon I'm screwed if I don't study contemporary issues lol, because there's a choice... and I haven't even touched crime yet.

Honestly, leave them and focus on crime. 30 marks come from crime, only 25 on each essay, which you can still get substantial marks without the contemp. issues :)

Yaaay, haha. Well I've studied the responses to family law reasonably so I should be fine. We get a choice anyway... good luck!
