know your artists well... if you have time, look up random semi-popular artworks (contemporary) and write a bit about them in terms of the frames
OR DO PAST PAPERS IDK

I reckon a good idea is to know a couple post modernists for the unseen plates/sections (Andy Warhol, Banksy, Roy Lichtenstein, Damien Hurst just to name a few), you can basically say anything for them as long as you back it up with something relevant, honestly in my trail paper i had the weirdest plate for the first unseen question and i said how colour was a major factor in the painting and i managed to get reasonable marks.
The essay question at the end, im pretty sure everyone in the state has learned a few case studies from year 11 and year 12, if you have your case studies in mind, it will be very helpful i guarantee it! Throughout all my art tests ive picked the Frames questions because theyre the easiest to me, i dont bother to look at the others, because all you basically have to do is say your case studies, (just to name a few who have a lot of emotion or whatever in their art --> Picasso, Frida Kahlo,Gordon Bennett), and run through an art work with the frames(Structural, Subjective, Cultural and Post Modern), and relate it back to the question :) i breeze through the essay like this.

Dont stress too much just do your best :) and everyone in the state is in the same boat as you, Good Luck! :)
