    Preparing and Studying for the HSC

    Hi, How do you recommend I study and prepare for my 3 HSC exams? I have Legal Studies, SOR 1, and VET IT this year. IT doesn't need a lot of preparation, and SOR I know that I am able to prepare more effectively by doing the dot points, but what do you recommend for Legal Studies. Any help or...

    Year 10 Subject Selection Help

    I do legal studies and have to say that it has increased my interest in the law dramatically. Before, studying law at uni was just a thought but now I am sure I want to give it a go.

    Vocabulary and Lexical Density - Advanced English

    I want to use it because I feel that my current vocab is a little poor. I tend to repeat the same words often. If I do come across words that help prove a point I try to use them but I was wondering if there was perhaps a resource that provided some really good, strong word. For example, I feel...

    Vocabulary and Lexical Density - Advanced English

    Hi, So my teachers often discuss 'lexical density' and I feel that my vocabulary is largely my short coming in my essay writing. I feel that I tend to say certain things in too many words and that if I used fewer 'better' words, I could say more in the time provided/word limity. I often...

    Combining Study Periods into Study Day

    Hi, I am currently in Year 11 at a Catholic school. Last year, my school made the decision to accelerate SOR 1, to complete the HSC exam in Yr 11. They did this because they felt the subject was lacking in the academic rigour as a consequence of only having 2 lessons a week. As a consequence...

    How is IT VET calculated?

    My understanding is that the IT HSC Exam is the only mark that counts. Your result in that exam is your mark for IT in the HSC. It is scaled, using results from other subjects, but your rank in school/TAFE is meaningless. I know, it is annoying, because it is very possible that you could be the...
