i do legal studies, and it's genuinely one of my favourite subjects. i don't plan on doing law in the future, and even if you do want to do law, those degrees tend to blitz through most of the legal studies course content in the first term, so it's not strictly necessary. however, if you're...

my other subjects are 4u english, legal, and polish continuers - doing quite well in all those units so not worried about them - only about maths/french tbh

we got a few exam results back and although most were good, french continuers was pretty bad. i got 13/15 in writing, but only 15/25 in listening, which is easily my weakest area. the exam also weighed 40%, which means even if i full mark the rest of the assessments i won't be getting a very...

This is for listening specifically: We've been told that for summarise questions, we shouldn't include all information, as this is likely to make us lose marks since we haven't actually summarised. Also in terms of mark allocation, for questions where they ask you to refer to language and...

not sure how relevant this is but there can be issues with dna evidence in particular being used in the criminal trial process, since jurors tend to overestimate its reliability. there's a case from victoria about a man who was wrongly convicted of sexual assault based on wrong dna evidence, and...

in both my french continuers and extension classes, we have 3 people. the other two people in the class are quite good at the subject, so even if i can get a good mark on its own, i don't think i'll be able to rank above them. in such a small class, would ranking last matter (particularly as all...

i'm doing ext 2 - right now i'm just researching, but my plan is to base my idea off of linguistics and derridean philosophy somehow

pathway: ATAR year 11: - english advanced - english extension - maths standard - legal studies - french continuers - polish continuers (ccafl) - philosophy (board endorsed) year 12 (will likely drop a subject): - english advanced - english extension 1 - english extension 2 - maths standard 2 -...

we're doing the crucible, atwood's hag-seed, the tempest, and t.s eliot's poetry (not sure about mod c yet though)

hm yeah as far as I know, you can't pick up new subjects in year 12 unless they're extensions, because in order to complete the hsc course for a subject you need to have completed the preliminary course as a prerequisite unfortunately

i'm not too sure that would solve the problem of running exams, though. it's inevitable that not every student would pick the same 3 exams, so they would probably still end up running ~120 exams like usual (obv with less people sitting them, but the exams are still running), which according to...

not sure about the hsc course, but personally i find ext english to be easier than adv, because adv is quite rigorous in what you need to write and analyse, where ext is really philosophical and the analysis is a lot deeper. however, if you're not a big fan of english at first, don't take ext -...

hi! the example that iago deceives othello is good to start with, but remember that answering the question is key - try to focus on what this shows about othello's character. start with a statement about one of othello's main traits, and then your example would be how this is shown in the play...

i'm doing french continuers at school and polish continuers at saturday school - planning on doing french extension too. i also did japanese continuers at the start of the year but dropped it as i found it too hard to keep up!

my school's announced online prelims, even if lockdown is lifted, but i believe the structure of the exam is gonna depend on the subject :/

with french this year, rather than running a beginners course as well as continuers, the school put three of us beginners into the continuers course and basically said 'just work hard and you'll be fine' - which has worked for me, since i came second in the last assessment. i would like to do...

I currently do Standard at a selective school, and I don't (really) regret it. My school has compulsory 5.3 maths, but for me the course progressed a bit too fast (+ other factors including the obvious selective school/everyone around me is better at maths confidence loss and the fact that I'm...

we've submitted our subjects for year 11, but turns out my lines clashed, so i need to pick another subject. my reserves were modern history and legal studies, and both of them work. however, i'm not sure which one to choose. either way, i'll be dropping either halfway through or at the end of...
