I raped it, performed better than my trials probably, or on equilibrium with trials. I attained 95 then. I just feel good that that's over, some multiple choice (the which statement is true/false) was stuffed, but worked with it.

Great, great exam. Today was a good day. God is good.

Happy considering my one night cram, but considering the generosity of the questions, post exam regret is kicking in.

Made up several surah references lol.

Section 3 and 4 were easy, MC were harder than the trials. I will be surprised if I don't get a band 6, i thought it went well.

I did Islam envi. ethics and hajj for the SIII essay– 10 pages, and 7 pages for the Peace essay (~6 cause of big handwriting)

I heard that people make Hadith references because it's so hard to find out whether they're real or not. All mine were legit though.

CSSA Trial and this were very, very, very similar.

In-fact, I think there were more similarities than differences ... Will be happy maintain the same performance... an 87 raw would become an 88, aligned?

Its aligning isn't very good.

Great work.

I'm SB, account just got banned haha, but yeah, really good exam. I was pretty happy with it. I think the peace essay was a huge relief, and very generic. A memorised essay could definitely be regurgitated there, but not necessary. Lucky for those who did it, haha.

Hopefully it will align better.

Last year's HSC was easier imo. This MC was quite tough, which should have been easy marks.

Why lolol??

I forgot lots of quotes for R/P but I think my argument is better than most people's would be. Luckily sacred texts were a focus which was similar to my trials.

Thanks! You predicted right about inner peace. I just regurgitated my essay from the trials, but obv changed up the intro and conclusion a bit. (Also why are you banned)

I need to see the paper tbh, can't remember options but If you tell me them, I can tell you what I pciked

the "both statements are false or true" questions were a bit weird
