For PE, would it it be the content covered at school? I think it'd be hard to find advice what your PE exam would cover as different schools cover different topics at different times?

English, go over your text types (as in how to write certain text types), language techniques.

There's no SC exam for PD, so I don't think you'd find it online...

For english have a go at a past school certificate paper.

As for the syllabus, they are a far too broad, so don't worry. Skills are essential not so much learning off knowledge (because there is really not much to be learnt anyway).

So you have exams starting first day back? English would be on the Monday then I'm guessing? Ask your PE teacher what is going to be on the exam. You have a right to know.

I'm pretty sure every school has a different trial exam, but the English trial exam will have a similar format to the SC. Do a few English SC past papers and you should be fine. And as someone said before me look over your text types and language techniques. The key to doing well in English is practice, practice, practice.

As for PD/H/PE, I'm not too sure about that but PD is usually pretty straight forward, so I wouldn't worry too much about that. We did STI's, Road safety, Lifestyle diseases, First aid, Loss and Grief and drugs. Thats just what we did at my school but i'd assume you did similar stuff.

tbh I don't even know why we are doing trials for PD, I mean its not as if there is a SC exam for it. :S

You're welcome. :)

Thats gotta suck though, why don't you ask a friend if you could borrow their PD book? Or you could always ask your teacher whats going to be in the test.

We done a PD half yearly exam. It was so EASY. And I didn't even touch my book. I'm sure you'll be fine.

Well this is what what did in PE this year:
·[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]Adolescence and responsibility
·[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]Drugs
·[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]Alcohol
·[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]Safe driving
·[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]Sexual responsibility
·[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]Mental Health
Most of the stuff taught is common sense. If in doubt, write "peer pressure", it works almost every time. :D

As for English...focus on your essay writing skills, poetry or something? I'm not sure. Our yearly is focusing on Macbeth...just think through what you've done this year.
