For context, my year 12 grades have been dead consistent ranging from 84% to 88% for all internal tasks including trials.
I want to try and improve in legal but i'm struggling. Everything seems normal. In all my other subjects theres always like 1 or 2 outliers/topics i struggle with to focus on to improve. In legal all my essays are just in the lower 'A range', my short answers good, and my multiple choice is a bit inconsistent but usually okay - but im trying to improve it.
My trial results were:
Total: 85/100
Multiple choice: 16/20
Short answer: 13/15
Crime essay: 14/15
Option (Family): 21/25
Option (Workplace): 21/25
The multiple choice i know, and im working on, but what else can I do?
All my feedback i've gotten this year seems standard - but its always kind of niche to the topic. like its never anything broad/overarching that can be applied to everything, its always like rewording one specific sentence or using a different piece of evidence.
With that being said I want to maximise my marks for my family and workplace essays, as I'm losing 8 marks there combined so if i got them both to a 23/25 i'd almost be in the band 6 range. and then if i work on my multiple choice i'll be good.
Anyway i'm just wondering if anyone has any specific advice or strategies they use everytime they write an essay that i can implement and keep in mind when writing all my essays to improve. (all my essays already have LCMDI, a PETAL/PEEL structure, and PEARRJAM)
I'm also trying to ask my teacher this but she took 2 months leave and doesn't get back to school until next term so like 2 weeks.
