I think these exams should have been put on seperate days...speaking from last year's experience, i was soo tired after legal studies 3 essays, short answer and multiple choice in 3 hrs is alot your pen doesnt stop

i could not imagine what those students are feeling who are sitting 2 unit and legal studies a lot of info swimming around..1 unit would not be as bad as they have a shorter time in the exam, although it is still a lot of content..SoR was a yuckky subject to me there is no definitive structure

I don't do Legal, but I'm here this morning studying for Religion. Just watched the Legal kids go in - they're all frantic, even the ones not diong SoR.
Our school only does one unit SoR, but jesus, they're two of the most content-heavy subjects in the world. Not fair to them.

I just finished my Legal Studies exam, and I'm studying now for my 2U Studies of Religion exam this afternoon. Last night, for some reason, I got hardly any sleep and now I'm tired as and I've got a horrible head ache. Trust it to be on the hardest day of my exams!

i got to a catholic school, so therefore it is compulsory to at least do 1 unit RE.
There are about 40 people who do legal studies (including me!) of which about 10 people do 2 unit RE, and the rest who just do 1 (me also)

i thought it was soooooo unfair that they put both these subjects on the same day, especially as the board of studies knows that all kids at catholic school have to do RE and that the majority of these schools also do legal studies

i just like to say...fuck u board of studies...ur stupid...use your fucking heads next time!!!!!


glad to have gotten that out of my system :)

Fuck today was the worst HSC day ever. My shoulders and arms are in pain from writing. Two essay based subjects on one day, go fuck yourselves BOS! I could have done way better in SOR I if it was on a different day.

aaaman, why the fuck would anyone choose to do catholic studies instead of SOR, when it doesn't even count towards your UAI and would be a waste of a unit? SOR scales decent too...

I didnt think that it was too bad of a day. I go to a Catholic school so I am part of the compulsary gang but 1 unit religion is such an easy exam, and if you do well its a pretty good weighted subject.

I agree its a bit stressful having these 2 exams on the same day. I drove home quickly and studied as much as I could between.

Yeh, i go to a catholic school too. But i wrote as much as other people did in RE despite the fact they had the whole morning to study and i had to do legal !! and also because its so easy. I dnt think i gave it much study as i did for Legal. But my hand is now literally dead, i cant feel it and i can see veins everywhere. Scary as. And i also have Modern History and Society&Culture on the same day next next week. What a bitch. I better get some consideration for the fact half of my exams happen to be put on the same days twice.

i did both exams on friday and it was SOR II unit.. so thats 6 hrs of exams in one day. i have 2 say, i think the people who set up the timetable are real a**holes, especially because both Legal and Religion rely on heaps of essay writing.
