*wonders what document miss-teek is looking at*

*also wonders why she is always asking for stuff that she should already have*

 

[miss-teek]

our teacher gave us this sstudy guide and SAID (is she a lyer) that these were from the syllabus.
i don't have them unfortunately i don't know why

 

[Tenille]

They are not really the exact dot point (word for word) but rather the questions would provide some information for some of the dot points

 

[snapperhead]

its actually from the old syllabus (pre 2001).
What I have provided is the current syllabus. You can forget the initiation rites stuff all together and as tenille said, some of the other stuff may help with current points but IMO...not really as you would be just doubling up of stuff.
