Sorry if I came off like I was attacking you, but I'm only going off what I've heard.
My teachers are HSC markers too and they said that they marked at a HSC level or maybe a bit above.
For my trials I received 41/45 + 56/60 and cleared the pack by 10 marks in total.
Just to be clear though...
I asked the head of english at my school and she said for trials that they marked to HSC standards or maybe a little bit harder to differentiate the cohort.
Not sure though. Hopeful for B6!
Module A: Did 4.5 pages for it in the last half an hour... Still answered it alright I guess.
Module B: 5.5 pages for it. Probably my strongest essay. I did it first.
Module C: 6 pages. Quite strong also.
Probably got
Mod A: 17
Mod B: 19
Mod C: 18
Not sure how different the HSC...
Depends on what you mean by memorising..
Do you mean the whole essay? Or just the general ideas (ie. techniques, quotes)?
All I did for trials was memorise techniques, quotes and general ideas which I was going to write about. It worked for me.
