    General Thoughts: Modern History

    I predicted my modules to the question... even the wording. I predicted that USA 1919-1941; (I did not guess, I kind of knew) would be not only Foreign Policy, but Domestic pressures. I wrote the same essay I did the day before the exam, which was marked by a former Senior Modern marker. I...

    Mark Calculation Scenario Question

    Given your calculation.... would the same be applied.... (this would be exceptional) if: 1st Assessment Rank: External: 65 2nd Assessment Rank: External 94 Would 2nd have a 79.5 (Where the gap in internals is a mere 1.6%) Does not seem very logical.... (better yet, fair)

    Mark Calculation Scenario Question

    Tbh, I will get the ATAR for my course (93) anyhow, but the idea that my mark will not be an accurate representation of my performance in the subject does hurt.

    Mark Calculation Scenario Question

    Are you sure you are not simplifying this? The gap was 1.7%... Surely, they do not merely find an average... disregarding all the circumstances which may surround it. For instance, if the gap with 0.4%....

    Curious as to your views on answering contemporary issue questions [Legal]

    Where a HSC question asks you... for example, How effective has law reform been in dealing with contemporary issues in the workplace? In this circumstance, I would consider it appropriate to focus on one issue in isolation and go into extensive detail. However, are there any circumstances...

    J Edgar Hoover - Time Management Question

    I wouldn't say it is a matter of 'neglect' but more-so how long it actually takes me to effectively answer the question... Those questions worth 25 marks, can be done effectively in 1300 Words c.10-11 HSC writing booklet pages (50 minutes for me). Hoover requires more time as the 10 Mark...
