My teacher was a lot of help (sarcasm). Basically named half the speeches could possibly be specified, but i suppose she gave reasons to back up her claims. These are the ones I'd agree with.
Keating - Short, everyone knows.
Deane - The easiest speech, most likely everyone in the state would've studied it.
Bandler - Apparently HSC exams are written near beginning of the year (?) So since this is a relatively short, new speech, and also because of the recent context with Rudd's apology, she thought this might be selected.

I feel the only speech that would kill everyone if it was specified is Atwood's

Atwood would be fine. It's not too long and uses humor and references etc..

Sadat on the other hand... :'(
