for starters try to remember some of your coursework and then think about stuff thats just so general that they may ask. Hint: English is not easy to study for. As long as you know all your stuff from 7-10 its no problem.

Its English Literacy not English so it has nothing to do with the content you have learned from 7-10. Simply brush up on your comprehension and language conventions and you'll kill it. The easiest of all the exams.

Hey. Give me a break. Whatever it's still English, it's not easy to study for the SC. Like for me it was pure luck that I managed to well in History and in Science, but not Maths compared to now in the HSC where I'm doing better in Maths. Let me see....science, hmm...interpreting graphs, some multiple choice, I don't remember many long answer questions so I don't think there are any.

for science u do have to describe stuff in paragraphs

last year u had to describe natural selection they give u abt half a page / quater page to describe

i think to study just read thru all the stuff u learn thruout the year

interpreting graphs n stuff isn't too hard

study????
English: know what everything is, eg rehtorical Questions, 1st 2nd and 3rd person ect.

Maths: just know your formulas (just area and volume really), im guessing you do advanced maths so you will be fine. If you do, do advanced it will be easier than most your exams, you gotta remember they have to account for the dumber people, you know they people who get like 20% in exams, i can not put it in a nicer way sorry.

Science: Know what an atom, moleclue ect is, and a bit about natural selection ect.

Geography: know how to read and interpret maps/graphs, and be able to write a paragraph about what you see. And know a couple of points about stuff like Salinty, rural urban migration, ect. for your writing task in it

History: know how to read and interpret sources, know a bit about Federation, Bit about Aboriginal rights and how they have changed, Womans rights and how they have changed, and how Australias relationship with the US and Britain has changed over time, also if you want to, know a bit about Republicanism, popular culture, multicultralism to be on the safe side.

When you get down to it and into the exam room you will realise you remember alot of it cause you have done it so many times, even if you havent study it.

Hope you have better luck with the magpies than what i did!!!

Funny that. Are you sure you want to do the HSC if you want to boost your poster count cos i tell u when u get to year 12, u r so stuck. I have so much work piling up and so much revision to be done.
