Lol this is terrible but I never actually practice writing essays to different questions. I feel like it takes up too much time. So instead I look at past questions and brainstorm a list of things I would talk about (what the topic sentences would be, fancy words I'd use, thesaurus etc etc)

My mentality is that, it's not like chem when you can rote something andit will guarantee you 100%. English is retarded that way and I'm like why should I waste time doing an essay that's gonna get 15/20 every time.

I don't think there's any weightage thing coz you get raw mark/105 x 100 = raw percentage ---> hsc mark

But of course different modules align differently I think coz some texts are harder/easier eg a lower mark in Shakespeare (12/20) may be equal to the a higher mark in strictly ballrrooom. (17/20)

As for marking the essays, sadly there's no one who can give us a potential equivalent hsc mark :(

Overall, screw hsc English!
