Leading Edge seems to have exam strategy workshops every school holidays, the question i want to ask is, is it the same each term?:confused:

The revision workshops will revise on all topics. The exam strategy workshops will concentrate the technique in writing "top notch" essays. For more info, click here.

I would think they are, since they are focusing on exam strategy, not the actual content of the course. I'll be attending it too. ;)

the actual techniques applied are the same, but the content changes as you've done more of the course.

My suggestion is this:

if you are looking to come to one, go to the last one of the year as you will cover all topics.

On the other hand, if you are struggling with exam strategy now, and want some hints for trials and other exams, it may be a good idea to come earlier. It just depends on how confident you feel.

But realistically there is not the necessity to go to more than one unless you want to see it applied to different content

Too late, I already paid a while ago. I thought the workshop was pretty good, it helped with refreshing my mind with the earlier topics. By the way, I'm pretty sure the whole group were year 12's. Exam strategy workshop is tomorrow and I'll be going to that as well.

When I went to the workshops before, the exam strategies were always the same, but the content ones changed slightly as the year went on. They were good, I thought. I also thought that only Yr12s are allowed into the workshop? There were definitely only Yr12s there before.

And sharing notes is actually a really good idea, especially when it comes to Trials and HSC and you're dying cos you have a crap teacher...you should do it!
