How much of the Year 11 work is in the HSC

Not for maths obviously, but for my other subjects.

Business, Legal, Eco.. None.

Your year 11 work is just basic foundations for year 12 work but none of it is examined.

Yeah, you still need the basic concepts learnt in Prelim

Some stuff moves on, the basics which you need in year 12, but none of it is "directly" in the HSC, and there's only 20% or 30% of 2u maths which will be tested in the hsc exam, and anything from prelim can be tested in the 3u exam, that is all.

Thats good. The concepts of yr 11 for economics, legal and business are pretty easy

None, it's all assumed knowledge, but they can't directly test you on it

so we only need to have sound knowledge of prelim content (excluding maths and math ext1)?

Not really sound, you just need to know the stuff which may be carried over, like balancing equations in chem, you learn it in yr 11 and use it in year 12, none of the content is examinable but some stuff develops the base for year 12 work.

tbh you could do nothing all year in yr 11 and still ace hsc as long as you get the basics :drink:

Basically it's the skills that you acquire in year 11 and the foundations to the information that you learn that will contribute to year 12. For example the skills of source analysis, analysis of case studies will provide the foundations you need in year 12 histories and legal studies (probably also economics - although it's not the information that's important but how you analyse it). In terms of science year 11 provides the foundation understanding to the year 12 topics.

You will not be assessed on year 11 content material, but the skills you acquire in year 11 to transfer onto year 12. Except for Mathematics, I think 20-30% of the year 11 material can be assessed in year 12 (though I'm not too sure).
