Hi, fellow BOSers!
My name is Steven Kim and I graduated from Baulkham Hills High School with an ATAR of 99.80, achieving an overall Legal Studies mark of 96.
In addition, I came 2nd internally, attaining 58/60 and 95/100 in the Half-Yearly and Trial Examination, respectively (first for both exams).
For the HSC, I received a raw mark of 90, which was aligned to 95.
The option topics I did were:
World Order (25/25 for HY, 25/25 for Trials and 23/25 for HSC)
Global Environmental Protection (24/25 for Trials, 23.5/25 for HSC)
Following my deep passion and interest for Legal Studies, I have been working on a Legal Studies Guide, whilst also offering my trial and HSC responses, along with a some content ideas and deconstruction of questions for the option topics.
I would like to note that despite being a mainly “tick-the-box” subject (just copy paste what you read in textbooks) - higher order thinking is required for the larger responses in Legal Studies. As such, I will briefly go over the tools and techniques required to succeed, rather than raw content - there are textbooks for a reason!
Despite being a heavy promoter of rote-learning English essays, I can't recommend the same for Legal Studies Extended Responses.
Personally, I found that knowing a bunch of legislation, cases, media reports and other important issues and ideas were sufficient enough for producing an essay which not only directly answered the question, but also provided a strong argument.
Ultimately, however, it all comes down to you, the individual - you're going to be the one doing your assessments in the exam hall, the one studying their ass off in the library, and hopefully, the one being rewarded for the aforementioned hard work! 12 months may seem like a long time, but trust me, it flies, and in no time, HSC will be but a distant memory.

Legal Studies Guide ($5)
https://sellfy.com/p/pXIu/
Having gone through a bunch of practice and real Legal Studies exams throughout the past two years, I've noticed a couple of patterns, strategies and thinking methodologies which have ultimately allowed me to succeed in the Half Yearly, Trial and HSC Exam. At 3,640 words, this is a short guide - just some insights into the syllabus, alongside exam techniques, and general tips!
I have included in the guide, an analysis of my short response questions from a mixture of both the HSC and Trial Exam (they were awarded full, or near-full marks (e.g., 14/15 for Trial Short Answer), providing a useful insight into a Band 6 response structure and content.

World Order Trial and HSC Extended Response, Content Ideas and Question Deconstruction ($6)
https://sellfy.com/p/UNaj/
World Order is an option topic which I truly came to appreciate, having furthered my passion by attending various UN Youth events.
It's a fantastic option in the sense that it will most definitely complement your Human Rights section, and the International part of Crime.
It definitely opened my eyes up to the world we live in, and I think that this passion will show through my essays, and give an insight into a Band 6
Invariably, the Trial and HSC responses will have similar content, but of course, have been answered to suit the specific question!
For Content Ideas, I cover a rough sketch of what information should be included in your essay, whilst also providing some examples
For Question Deconstruction, I approach 3 questions, and deconstruct what they want you to specifically talk about. Honestly, most option topic questions are the same, but simply rehashed with a specific key word to differentiate those who memorise their essay.

Global Environmental Protection Trial and HSC Extended Response, Content Ideas and Question Deconstruction ($6)
https://sellfy.com/p/veIS/
Global Environment Protection - at first, I thought this would be an absolutely boring option topic, but after having researched thoroughly into the topic, I began to realise its importance and relevance in our modern era - tying in commercial, political and scientific influences.
Invariably, the Trial and HSC responses will have similar content, but of course, have been answered to suit the specific question!
The Content Ideas and Question Deconstruction are pretty much the same idea as World Order, but obviously with Global Environmental Protection.
