    ATTENTION past HSC success people!!

    Here are my marks, but first I want to say that English Advanced will make or break you, but so can lower scaling subjects. English ADV - 96 English EXT 1 - 90 Ancient History - 98 (19th in the State) Modern History - 96 EXT History - 92 Legal Studies - 97 (7th in the State) = 99.85 UAI!!!

    What are you currently Reading?

    I read the Count of Monte Cristo this year over a few months - one of the best books i've ever read, I definitely recommend you read it, its well worth the 1000+ pages.

    Post Your UAI's Here

    I got 99.85 and SAM said I would get 99.80 so I think its pretty accurate - I am so happy with my UAI - but I feel a little guilty that I will only be doing a course that needs a UAI of 83 (Ancient History at Macquarie).

    legal studies

    I thought this was a great exam, except for a few multiple choice which were disputable and ambiguous. Crime was the easiest its ever been, family i think went well, and world order was the best - Q25 B - i chose - and i remembered so much. Good luck everyone - I'VE FINISHED MY HSC -...

    Multiple Choice

    Sorry but you must have read the question wrongly - the Magna Carta is not A TREATY which enshrines human rights - it was a constitutional document - a treaty is signed by more than just groups in a country (i.e. king and nobles) it is between two or more countries!

    Multiple Choice

    Hey my answers were similar to yours - however i have some queries: 9) I put c however our teachers pointed out that all young people are entitled to legal aid in criminal circumstances - but i would say that it can't be D because it does not define the age of "young people" are they over or...

    Elizabethan's galore.

    sorry if i attacked you - but how do you go into depth with so many perspectives - i thought they want you to show detailed knowledge of the evidence used by historians to create their perspective.

    Thoughts on the exam

    thanks for clarifying that - i'm glad that someone only put the historians' name.

    I said - in response to tessery - that contexts change and therefore influence historians to challenge old interpretations formed in different contexts.

    Thoughts on the exam

    You should be mentioning at least what type of historian Munslow is and comparing his view of the role of the historian with other historians - that's the whole reason why they give us a source, because when you refer to the issues he raises you must refer to WHY he does - which relates to his...

    Elizabethan's galore.

    Hey it sounds like you went all over the place - aren't you meant to focus on some areas and i wouldn't have done the film Elizabeth because Kapur is not a historian. If you did do all those areas of debate did you: 1) link them to the question, and 2) write enough?? How much did you write??

    Hi, i found your thread. You know what i did, which historians did you do. I would have to say that from the perspective of religious policy i could hardly find any debate or "challenging accepted interpretations" - so who did you use? Most likely Christopher Haigh???
