I never figured out how to shorten Crime essays, so instead of 6 pages, they were 8 pages. And for some reason, my Consumer essays were always the longest. I wrote 9 pages for Consumers topic.

Does anyone know how Crime essays are meant to be 6 pages? I don't do the HSC of course anymore, but just curious. Because the marking guidelines are exactly the same (generally).

do you know any good cases to research in relation to writing an essay on this point of the themes and challenges section of the crime syllabus?

These helped me a lot. The cases suit the syllabus dot point well from these essays.

R v SLD, R v Loveridge are some cases that I think work well here. R v Pham (was it?) A Crim R 128. R v (something here - can't remember) A Crim R 112 from 1991.

no it's in like 3 weeks but its' after half yearlies which is such a drag because hte content is basically the same so I have to do 2 math exams
literally if they could give it to me on like thu I would be fine with it cause it's on trig, simultaneous equations, financial which I already know and is also in my half yearlies

I don't see any reason they would have to deny moving it forward
no but if they move it forwards it's during our exam block which means they have to find a day where the other girls in my class don't have an exam. I might talk with them tho and then my teacher. I wanna do it on the monday after sor

Oh, lol I didn't think of that, it's not very common that one asks for their exam to be moved forwards.
yeah but it's just that my half yearlies math exam is on the 20th and I dont' wanna wait a whole 10 days to do it cause if I do it earlier, the content will still be fresh in my mind from the half yearly exam
