Just some hints: E is a tertiary alcohol (2-methylbutan-2-ol) as it is not oxidising by the oxidising agent C is 2-bromo-2-methylbutane as it makes E through a substitution A is an alkene. It is 2-methylbut-1-ene. It must be the but-1-ene bit because it needs to make a primary alcohol to...

The paper will be uploaded today after a typo change

In the old syllabus (2000-2018 HSC) the galvanic cells was a concept taught during Year 12. In Year 11 now you learn about it in Module 3, but back then it was in Year 12 content because the module it was in was called "Production of Materials" so students learnt about batteries and stuff in...

See you all tomorrow!

Hi solutions will be uploaded once marking is completed

Would recommend to write a bit bigger if this is like English cause you have unlimited space and it’s usually easier to read if it’s bigger

Would recommend to study. Not studying and relaxing too much can lead to bad habits in terms of studying. While it is true that it won't directly effect your Year 11 and 12 subjects, it sets a bad example for yourself. Think of it in terms of if that becomes a habit to just "chill" and go...

When getting an English tutor you really need to look around a lot. It's not like maths and sciences where there are plenty of people The tutor I got she was very helpful in terms of providing essays from other students she had in the past. Even if it wasn't always on the text I was doing, they...

Pretty much lol. A lot of the stuff in the new syllabus sometimes they don't lay out everything you can get asked. Best reference you can have is look at a textbook. If it's in the textbook it's probably something they can test

Yes they can ask about those other things

Yeah okay I can see how that could be tough. Glad I did my hsc before these changes

I don't know much about the new syllabus as I haven't really looked at it and don't really want to look at English tbh anyways as it's one of the cursed parts of hsc hahaha, but I have heard that the students now sometimes could get asked to write different kinds of things like a discursive...

Didn't do legal studies but what helped me in some of my subjects like business studies was when studying to reword the question in as many ways as possible So for instance if you knew option A was correct. You should ask yourself the question when would option B, C or D be correct (i.e. if the...

I think what you did is fine but you can like probably say the technique first and with the quote so it flows better. I did my HSC a few years ago so the syllabus is different, but almost state ranked back then and this is how I did it. Basically you need to try make the quotes and technique...

This is something that will be important in two aspects: - you do the practical so it could be a practical exam - you are asked to write equations for these things (which will become more important as you go into mod 2 and 3) Other than that it's not really something that is gonna be randomly...

Prioritise the assignments those are what will determine your rank. No point studying content not in the exam / assignment you are doing that week in terms of working ahead that’s what you should do in the non-exam periods and holidays as at those times you won’t have assignments or exams. When...

Probably depends on the uni as well, but UNSW has so many you can't count them. There's also some engineering based scholarships, but less than other degrees as it's already a very high in demand degree. There's quite a few in terms of science as they want people to join but yeah just have to...

Where you say a 99.90 ATAR is required for most scholarships isn't actually true. I got offered 3 different scholarships and didn't get that. There are a few (very few) scholarships automatically awarded for non-medicine degrees if you get that, but there heaps and heaps of scholarships for...

Yeah I get where you are coming from it is more on the side of being competitive and wanting to push yourself. Some people can handle it and go for those things as they are academically gifted and able to dedicate themselves to studying a lot, which in that case yeah go for it. The "this is it!"...

Just adding on one thing for any future students thinking that a high ATAR means a scholarship based on what I said. It doesn't always equal scholarships as some of my friends got 99s and didn't get any You also will have to have some other stuff you can talk about such as extracurriculars...
