Geography is probably the most specific, followed by History. In Geography you have to know each of the main topics in detail and case study information you've done. From what I've heard Science is also general knowledge of all topics from the last 2 years, which makes me worried because I've...

Same with me. I do 5.3 maths and get around top of the class in all tests, but I got 67% in the trial I did the other day. It's really hard for me to think back on how to do some things, and whenever I solve a question I always seem to do it the hard way. Hopefully I can study the past papers...

lol, Geography has to be one of the biggest bull subjects ever. It is the subject of spin really. I mean, 'Fieldwork', 'Research Action Plan', lol, I can honestly tell you no sane person does this if they have a problem with an 'issue'. It doesn't help that I have a teacher that doesn't explain...

As acevipa put it, it'll take me 40 minutes to think of a damn story, let alone think AND write one! It's not that I exactly hate creative writing. I can write some great short stories for normal assignments. It's just that I don't think you can churn out an interesting piece of creative...

I actually need a little on this myself. For the first one though we compared the Navajo native Americans to Indigenous Australians for things such as life expectancy, education rates, jail over-representation etc. then looked at why they were better off. You should also look at how other...

The place of Australia in the world Don't think you'll need to learn anything about this, just basically have place geography knowledge of the countries around our region. Australia’s regional and global links At least ONE regional and global link chosen from aid, defence, migration or trade...

Posted a reply to your other thread on the matter. If there were mods I'd say merge this thread with the other, but I don't see many... Anyway I don't think you'll be able to get all of that information from skwirk. Briefly, if I was to group them I'd say: Nature: Introduction, Migrant...

Here's how our class handled it: 1. We were all given an assignment on a link of our choosing. Links included defence, migration, foregin aid, trade etc.(These are probably the easiest to do it on). In the assignment we had to: Name the link chosen Describe the link and identify the countries...

Highly unlikely considering that the long answer was on this last year. Still, there may be shorter ones on this, so you should have some knowledge of it. Thankfully it's fairly basic and straightforward compared to some of the others *cough*ResearchActionPlan*cough*.

Yeah, belief in the domino theory & a forward defence policy. At the population level you could also talk about how they elected a conservative, extremely anti-communist government for 20 years and many were swept up in anti-communist propaganda. These aren't necessarily 'key developments', but...

If it's a narrative I'll scream. I hate having to make up a and write 2+ pages story that is interesting (i.e, not corny or ordinary) as well as demonstrating a good writing technique, all in the space of 40 mins. Pretty much any other text type I can handle, especially something like a report.

wtf? What about yearly's of the same nature as the SC? And I thought my school was bad...unless you're all too intelligent for them.

Steal my joke why don't you:burn: :P The public school I go to has too many stupid people to offer any accelerated classes, which is very annoying but I can't do much about it.

What do you mean by fail?

Look here.

Yeah, IMO they would still mark the extended writing, but the point is that you should be able to write in the lines given and still give a band 6 answer.

My teacher says that the very first short answer is always skills based now. As for the last long answer, this year my teacher predicts it will be something on Future Challenges, so we've been doing a fair bit on Human Rights & Reconciliation. However, she also says that if it's not HR&R...

We did trials with all of our yearlys last term, though we've now done a separate 5.1 maths trial and we're about to do a geography one. Maths 5.1- 60-something/100 Holy crap this was hard. I do 5.3 maths and am around top of our class, but I was stumped with a lot of these questions, and it...
