    Mock Trial

    its hearsay evidence - just because jack said that, doesn't mean its true, or that he intended it. Play it down as a passing comment, not an intention, and stress the fact that it is hearsay. HOWEVER, if you're taking the line of self defence, then the intention to kill isn't a problem...

    Physics Practical Task

    reliability is assiciated with whether or not the experimental process can be repeated several times and yield similar results. validity has more to do with whether you are measuring what you think you're measuring, ie the accuracy of your results.

    Economics Assessment Marking Criteria

    Most likely, since this is a globalisation essay, it wants you to concentrate on the elements of globalisation that China has embraced, which has influenced its growth and development, so things like trade flows, investment flows, labour flows, financial flows, technology, TNCs, and it goes on

    Can I still get a UAI of above 90?

    its definitely possible. remember, its the ranks that matter more than your marks at school, so just work really hard to move your way up the ranks. you may also want to lodge a misadventure appeal for your lower half yearly marks; if they see that your performance is considerably lower...

    Length of essays/External Knowledge?

    really sorry but won't be sharing any essays from the hsc course, but if you look at the bos resources and check the preliminary section, there are 2 essays entered by "smarty pants" - they're mine.

    Length of essays/External Knowledge?

    i have medium - large writing. fill up about . . . 9 bos pages. that equates to a 20/20, from my experience, although how much you write is not a important as what you write. as a general rule, write at least 5 pages, if its really an issue.

    Othello rhetorical questions

    Some rhetorical questions: So, how does shakespeare convey this? And who is the outsider? I seriously wouldn't suggest making your speech longer, but rather speaking slower and having meainingful pauses. That will gain greater marks than an rushed speech. Just keep practising what you...

    Asessments

    what rank you need to secure a first place really depends on the total separation of marks in a subject, and the % of assessment weighting left. if everyone is really close in terms of marks, pretty much anyone in the top half can come first. if the mark separation is high, then you...

    School Ranking???

    it also should be realised that there is no pre - determined rank for each school. it all depends on how each school performs in that particular year. so if you've got a really smart grade . . . you've got a head start there.
