for crime the minimum is 600 words, though my teachers have told us that 800 is the b6-range minimum. 25 mark essays around 1000 words each

i'd really love a 10/15 split (with a critical) too! did well in the 25 mark critical in our trials, so wouldn't mind that. i'd kinda hate a 25 mark creative or anything with a reflection, i don't think i have enough on-the-spot creativity to stretch a small idea out for that long. in terms of...

my issues would be family court + fcc merger, financial agreements (prenups) and equal shared time - i like those cause they're relatively straightforward compared to dv and other parts of relationship breakdowns imo

lmaooooo yeah hag-seed didn't go so well for me either :,)) on another note i'm hoping one of the family questions is on something i can relate to courts bc they're easy to talk about (although i doubt it'll straight up say courts since they had one like that last year i believe)

if it's international crime it's not looking too good for me lmao but young offenders is really doable imo, depends how nice they're feeling

mod b and c were godsends for me, mod a could have gone a lot better (had to condense my essay and went a little overtime f) and even though one of my prepared arguments fit the extract very well, i had some trouble actually writing an improvised response based upon it. out of interest, around...

same my hand like cramped up halfway through the essay and i had to take a break to stretch it so i could get something legible on the page

our head teacher said 'there was no meat in the essay question' and yeah my essay felt so dry LMAO terrified of paper 2 tho

our teachers gave us the independent paper from this year to look at and it was horrible - in mod a it asked you to identify in your response which text you personally preferred more, and in mod b you had to write three journal entries about your text which is achievable imo but it's definitely...

it's usually better to make as much a nuanced take as possible, so multiple strengths and weaknesses are good. try to give your argument as much (relevant) breadth as possible!

yep, i think you could definitely go with that line of reasoning! just make sure that somewhere you're talking about the necessity of adaptation as well, since that's a big part of the module. you could say for example that adaptations such as heartstopper which represent homosexuality in a more...

it's usually easier if you can play your text off as being a modern adaptation of the other, just because it's a more straightforward argument and your focus question is also simpler (usually something along the lines of 'how does adaptation change the text's meaning', 'why do we adapt texts'...

i do legal, 2 languages and 4u eng and the workload isn't too bad, i'd say legal is the heaviest. definitely manageable if you're good at writing lots of practice essays + memorise things relatively quickly

trials would have started for me today but as luck would have it i got covid :( i have an hsc language oral the day after i get out of iso and then i'm doing all of my trials (including the ones i'll miss/have missed) in the span of three days. not looking forward to it

i just got my mod a assessment back and according to the written feedback, the only reason i lost marks was for my handwriting (which i'm not too happy about - mostly since my teacher told me it was legible and there was almost no feedback on the actual essay itself). how much do actual hsc...

i did 14 units during term 1 year 11 - my school wanted me to do 12 units there just in case saturday school fell through or something like that. luckily it didn't, and once i got my marks back for the first assessment i was able to drop a subject. my workload for that first term wasn't too...

our prescribed texts for lit homelands are adiga's white tiger and chong's burning rice (also brick lane but that's not in the upcoming assessment). i was originally going to use v.s. naipaul's the nightwatchman's occurrence book and rushdie's quichotte as relateds, but i found it quite hard...

legal studies is pretty good if you want a good grasp on current societal issues + the way the law works, which is always useful to have, no matter what kind of degree you're looking to get. it also might help to create variety in your subjects; 4u maths is a lot of stem already. if you're...

yeah, the only subjects it really works for is languages since there's not really any 'content' you learn, just vocabulary and grammar. however, i know some people in standard maths are doing full hsc papers since most of the content was learnt in 5.3 maths, and they've already covered networks...

my legal studies teacher came up to me and said that while marking my practice essay she found that my handwriting was very much illegible at times (she's going to talk to me about it in class), and i've gotten the same comment from multiple teachers on multiple exams before. the thing is, i...
