you should stay. It's only the first assessment, and it sounds like you have a strong cohort. If you can bring your rank up, you will be ok; there are still 3 more assessments - trials can change a lot and could be worth up to 40%. Does your school give you a handbook that shows how much your...
I used articles! I got a band 6 in society, soo it was fine. I know a lot of people do content analysis of news articles as well, depends on why you're using the source and if you can find more applicable research
agreed, it's a pretty intense workload and a lot of reading! without doing advanced you want to work on your ability to write clearly, concisely, and persuasively.
I screwed up plenty of times in year 12, you will be ok!! Your actual mark does not matter so much as your rank in the subject, this was only worth 20% so there are heaps of opportunities to redeem yourself. Have you thought about applying for provisions for anxiety? This may help your...
agree with bcv its entirely dependent on your cohort. If everyone does well then you wont be impacted badly, my 95 in legal only became a 94. Sometimes weird things can happen though, I was ranked third in Modern History and the only person to get a band 6 because 4th and 5th did better than 1st...
like the others said its rlly dependent on the strength of your cohort and your ability.
Sure you can be first but does that mean youre going to be getting high band 6s? You said you dont think you can balance your study effectively, what would change in being in a higher ranked school? Your...
btw -they say the deadline is term 1/2 but i submitted all my paperwork just before trials and was approved. Not sure about the official diagnosis tho but you need someone official to fill out your paperwork (its actually quite a simple process) small group supervision is amazing haha
ive been through something a little similar and id say do everything you can to help yourself.
I saw a psychologist throughout 11 and 12 and it helped me so much, I applied for provisions for the HSC which helped my anxiety during exam periods. I was hesitant to do this but am very thankful i...
id use them to revise, just would read over them, use them to answer questions and refer back to if i was missing information. Id just get all the content i needed from them instead of referring to the textbook often. Id do the blurting method like appleali did too. I organised them all in a...
my family base essay was the essay i did for the assessment task, it was a broad question something like "evaluate the effectiveness of legal and non-legal responses in providing just outcomes for family members" I had contemporary issues in this essay and domestic violence, it was very large...
i got a 95 exam mark in legal and am studying law this year! I did all humanities, content heavy subjects asw. remember to apply for any schemes/adjustments you may be eligible for, it takes a lot of pressure off getting the atar. aim high but always remember there are other pathways into law or...
i only have handwritten notes for legal oop and it wont let me insert photos into a convo so here they are
im sure you get the gist (cases, media and legislation all incorporated alongside content). handwriting could be time consuming but i found it relaxing and memorised it better. its...
i used spaced repetition to memorise - i memorised my essays and other content this way. Honestly its quite simple, its the opposite of cramming - to do spaced repetition you have to allow yourself time to do it. The spacing of this did vary, in the hsc it was more condensed but still broken up...
