What did you guys write for peace rights, and the 7 marker was that for the contemporay issue

promotion v enforcement m8

I did child soldiers so idk what contemporary isssue

talked about domestic ratification of the s.59 of defence act or whatever it was to alter 268.68 and 268.88 (yes I actually wrote that) of the act to criminalise conscription, enlistment of children under the age of 18 in national or armed conflict, whether directly or indirectly

talked about how It's only a limited recognition of child soldiers, and referenced the 2002 ombudsman report which stated that increasing the minimum age for voluntary recruitment over 18 would 'severely restrict the quality and quantity of recruits'

used many other legal responses

and promotion, media red hand day every year on the 12th of feb, and the blood diamond video to raise awareness

talked a bit about state sovereignty

etc

Peace rights I wrote about the right to be free from conflict and war, and for security.

The 7 marker wasn't about contemporary issues, but I wrote about the rights of LGBTIQ individuals, which I think was fine...it was how "human rights have been recognised over time due to changing values"

Can anyone confirm if we could write about this issue (LGBTIQ) or other contemporary?

Umm, I don't think you were supposed to write about that, but I'm not too sure.

Pretty solid test, easy in fact, MC= simple, short answer= A gift, Crime question ,while a little annoying still no to bad, Family Law Questions=Early birthday presnt and screw world order the questions were annoying, but still did alright in it. Overall fantastic.

Too easy... Multis were ridiculous, only hard part was peace rights...

Human rights issue means you can use your contemporary issue.

I found the paper much easier than expected. I was just unprepared for legal in general. The short answer wasn't a challenge, the mc were easy aside from 2-3 that threw me, family was my best essay section. I think I did averagely in crime/Workplace. Although I feel I didn't answer the Workplace question (I did A) exactly, although I did make many references to the question.

 

[scenario]

Crime question was bad for me. Everything else was good. Consumer and Family Questions were great.

I talked about human trafficking and slavery for the 7 marker, but i don't think it has to be a contemporary issue.

 

[SGSII]

Wait...does anyone have the actual question for that 7 marker?
I think I screwed that bit up by reading incorrectly :S

Dem world order questions -_______________-

 

[el heno]

If I talked about slavery, how much legislation would I need?

 

[lolwot]

how many marks would a 3/4 finished 6 page essay lose world order

how many marks would a 3/4 finished 6 page essay lose world order

I was on my conclusion on 10th page but the essay was pretty bad, totally made up on the spot andbullshitted through the nature of world order. Hoping for 20...

 

[marshmallow23]

IDK. Hopefully not a lot. I did the same too. I only got a little over 3 pages for world order ... sigh.

 

[Candidate]

For non-legal mechanisms in world order I discussed Negotiation, compliance, cooperation (as facilitated through sovereignty), jus cogens, R2P and I talked about Amnesty International getting the Arms Trade Treaty adopted by the GA. For legal i mentioned the Australian external affairs power, ICJ rulings, Treaties and the UNSC.

[Kowther]

so I made a mistake of not studying care + protection, changing nature of parental responsibility because I didn't think they'd ask the same thing 4th year in a row or whatever but still chucked it into the essay, and hoping for a good one. Consumer essay was so great though.

Uh crime question, I messed up. Only wrote 1 + 1/2 pages, expecting 6/15 and it's funny because I was going to study discretion but I ran out of time but overall it was a pretty good exam

expecting mid-high band 4, band 5 if the marker's are generous but we'll see

 

[Spiritual Being]

That exam, I'll be happy with anything above 90 aligned.

Based on that performance, and my trial performance, I probably got mid to high 80's raw.



But who cares, right? I have business in eleven days and I'm going to do amazingly!

 

[SuperMike96]

If I talked about slavery, how much legislation would I need?

I think I used 5+. They were all international law though. You wouldn't need that much though. Maybe 1/2 would suffice if you still answered the question.

 

[Candidate]

What would be the approx. raw mark that would align to a band 6? Like 85?

That exam, probably 83-84.

It wasn't as easy as people are making it out to be. It was a really good exam, but probably half the state screwed it.
