nope provocation is a partial defence that can be used for any crime (whether or not it will be accepted is another story)

94%, I buggered up my workplace response

Yes, but they mean don't wait till university offers come out. The closing day is 9th of January, offers come out on the 19th, the same day they make offers for accomodation. This is what they mean.

you'll be fine, at least you'll have them over and done with, Ext English is a bludge of an exam

Yeah I go without my friends, get a lot done. Can't study at home, too much to take my attention.

Did your law & society short answer have a question bout state sovereignty? And crime had something bout a stolen car with ecstasy tablets in the glovebox? Cos thats what we did and it was the independent

With the old HSC there was a number of maximum days set by the BOS. However, it is now at the school's discretion as to what they see as satisfactory attendance and a diligent effort. So no, its up to your school, and they'd have told you by now.

You can do it either way, but the second way would allow you to show your knowledge of the entire topic

Reliability: What are the chances of it being a correct representation of what it is portraying (keeping in mind its purpose) Usefulness: to what extent is it going to help with your historical investigation? (i.e. an account of a battle on the western front may be reliable, but will not be...

I didn't bother doing workplace notes, just chose the issues Im gunna do for the extended response

prima facie 'on the face of it' (in reference to a committal hearing where the judge decides whether there is enough 'prima facie' evidence for a jury to likely convict the accused) pro bono 'for the good of' inter alia 'among other things' vexatious litigant 'litigant with no reasonable...

Yep with an issue like that I spose its up to you what you wanna write about. But it actually didn't say 'several' issues on the rubric it just said issues. Im talking about the marking criteria. What trial did you do?

yeah that is a guide to the definition of justice. But in your extended reponse you will be treating it as a whole and not broken down.

In my trial i did 3 issues covered pretty well. In the HSC Im gunna aim for 4, mainly cos I know more on it than my other extended response and can take up a bit more time. I'll be aiming for 5-6 A4 pages (I don't know how many booklet pages that is), but covering them in reasonable detail.

In a response you are more looking at whether it is treating people equally and addresses properly the needs of the individual/group you are referring to. You are not treating justice as a set of criteria (a 'checklist' if you will) but as a whole. Does it address the issues or is it leaving...

yeah thats true, you will just lose points for not using correct structure and fluency. But its better than stopping mid way through an essay.

You always choose the middle road when it comes to making a judgement of how effectively the law achieves justice for individuals and groups, as you have more to talk about (talk about what is working effectively and then what needs to be improved). In saying how the law has recognised the...

I posted the case up in its own thread. Its from the 'Case Studies' book.
