I'm in year 12 now, but in year 11 I simply made a summary of each section in the textbook (not necessarily using my school text book - crib books are good too). However, in year 12 i've found that, as well as making the summaries, it's important to apply this knowledge to past papers...

Any online links?

I reckon the excel book is crap - most are. The macquarie book is fairly decent but you really won't find much better than your class textbook... way more comprehensive.

www.ashermoses.net I haven't updated it in a while though and my portfolio is fairly dated.

Well today's my first day of holidays, and although I won't be touching my books for the next 2 weeks or so, i'm looking for some advice from those that have already completed their HSC. Do you advise me to do any work during the Christmas holidays? What can I do to get ahead? Any hints are...

Shh Ortner :)

I'm doing the Tempest... - it's for advanced.

Put some vasoline on the lips, and create a tight vacuum seal over the... ok, maybe the wording of your topic was just wrong. :) Basically, learn your speech well and you will be confident because you know every word that's going to come up - no surprises.

Can anyone explain to me how Heart of Darkness is an imaginative journey? :\

If I post my notes for the exam up when i'm done, would any past HSC'ers possibly be able to give them the once-over to check that I haven't missed anything important? I know, it's a long shot... but worth a try. :)

It's because they've had some trouble with tutors doing the work instead of students in the past, so this is the safest way.

I think we got an hour actually...

The problem is, although I research it and prepare an essay on it in my own time, the essay has to be written in a timed exam, which makes it very difficult to include graphs and heavy detail, etc.

Mediocrity doesn't win you marks in the HSC :)

Have any of you (past year 12s or present) had to do an assessment essay on the impact of globalisation on a country of your choice? This is my current economics assessment, and I have chosen Taiwan. What i'm after is to have a look at anyone's past essays (doesn't matter which country) that...

We've covered most of the texts in the stimulus booklet, and have almost finished The Tempest. They're making us power through the course - our assessment task in just over a week is an essay on The Tempest and 2 other texts. We are also already supposed to have chosen three of our own, non...

We're doign Dune too - looks like you've got a similar course to us. Are you doing The Handmaid's tail also?

I hated IPT.. stupid information systems. Although I topped it in year 11, I dropped it in year 12 - definitely not the "computing" course I expected it to be.

The first film - thank god...

We're doing speculative fiction.. studying Lord of the Rings first up. It's alright :)
