i have a question but i guess this is very specific to people doing accelerated courses,
is it standard for accelerated students to get school-endorsed time off before HSC and Trials, especially given that normal year 12s will get a few weeks for trials or legit a month for hsc?
given that my two hsc exams are on mondays my school is trying to make so we dont get any but im curious to see what other schools do

We didn't get exam blocks just one study day off the day before the exam but most of us took another day off as an unofficial study day. eg. trials exam was a monday so the previous friday was a study day and thursday the unofficial one. so annoying but the pros of doing accelerated outweighed the cons.

I am also doing these texts and module its a good one lots to write about.
We just started Metropolis but have done Shelley and Godot now.
For related texts our teachers gave us some ideas eg. Hersey's Hiroshima, Flannagan's Question 7 (im doing these pretty sure - i think you can do up to 2 related 2 prescribed so 4 in an essay or just 1 related so 3 total) and something about the Beatles? some people in my class are also picking their own but have to check with your teacher cant be a hsc prescribed text for another level of english or another ext module. And this is an extra thing not compulsory but my teacher said some hsc markers are very stuck up so if the related is too controversial they can mark you down based on personal bias and cos its all done online now and alone cant really be changed sadly

Yh my teacher said the same thing, i had to get mine approved at the start of the year
