I actually find this part very tricky. I worry about time, and then because of this, i don't fully digest the significance, and ideas within the texts, and thus end up bs my way to 7/15.

Yeah i believe they do, i also think they tie in with the rubric. They interelate in some respects, but you can seperate them easily. For example, in the Felix Skryznecki poem, there is the idea that the father has a sense of belonging due to the garden (places), which leads to (separate idea)...

Just create paragraphs for each text for 3 ideas. So his cultural alienation from lack of background, connections to people/places, and how understanding can come from identity's. Just learn these, and then if they ask for a question that swings towards people/places, use your three...

Yes the HSC aims at consistency, but does it reward it....NO. You can study your bloody arse off throughout the year ace all of the 15% exams, but come trials that weight like 45%/ 50% you screw up for the first time. Then person B, does shite throughout, flukes the trials, and waaheyyy nicks...

Yes you can, don't listen to them there talking bs. If you get 97/97/99/100 and that happens to be within the top 10% of the state, there you go you have a 90 percentile within maths. I only think its different for the Englishes.

For the historical period, is it likely that if they have asked a specific question based off a bullet point, they won't ask for it for successive years, or 2/3 years down the line?

Re: Einstein's going down, physicists! Physicists had to start at HSC, or other countries equivalent.

TBH mate, if i was you i would rather my teacher gave me 9/15 - 10/15. I prefer teachers who mark hard, because it pushes you. Have the mindset that whatever mark your teacher gives you take 2-3 off because there will always be better ones that are more deserving of a 15. I know my teacher marks...

Why are they so hard? Is it the quality of students, or just because the modules they do are not sophisticated enough when being compared to Advanced.

This may sound like a daft question, but is it usual to feel like you don't know much, despite revising quite a lot. Then when exam comes, you smash it, and everything seems to come to mind. Yep, just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this. I have this problem regarding History. I...

Mine's not even on the site, thats how bad my school is.

Dude in all fairness, they are not too bad. Honestly, your doing well mate. Yeah English is a little bad, but not too bad. But hey, don't we all suck at English (if you even call it that), its the most pointless unacademic subject around. Im sure you will achieve the ATAR you desire. Just...

Well i would rather a employee who is punctual and withholds lower results, as opposed to the opposite. Academic brilliance, isn't necessarily applicable to everything in life, remember. By having good attendance usually highlights dedication, and a willingness to commit and these are the...

Re: Einstein's going down, physicists! E=mc2 speaks for itself. Therefore it's not likely. They need to validate their results, and provide conclusive evidence. After all, Einstein's notions with the clocks on Earth, and in a plane did.

No, but employers do, and they won't take lazy shits like you mate.

Happy as a pig in shit.

Don't take a week off like some have suggested, because it'll be very difficult to re-enter your routine. You have one month left, give it all you have and that is all you can do. At the start of the year i had high aspirations, wanting 90 in everything (not going to happen), but then i screwed...

I don't need no beast mode. Im already a beast.

Definitely revise for your exams. Adopt a good attitude towards your study now, and you'll be well prepared for Prelim, and HSC. Also, If you suddenly decide to apply for a top school (Im assuming for this case, you are not in one) then you will need to provide a school report that shows you...

So if it says explore with 2 related texts. I do not have to necessarily use 2 for every idea (im doing 2 ideas per essay), i could use one related text for one idea, and the other related for the next.
