Is a source analysis necessary during the introduction of an ancient history essay (Personality 25 and Period study 25)? My teacher, who worked for HSC marking at one point maintains it is a good idea due to the fact that it makes it look better, but it is certain that it is not needed...

School is about 150th. Modern History - 6/30 Ancient History - 1/28 Business Studies - 1/60 English Advanced - 13/60 Studies of Religion - 5/50 Mathematics (doesn't count to ATAR since it is worst 2 units) Extension History - 2/6 What ATAR do you think I would get?

What I mean is make sure you are not being general when describing things. Eg. a business could use promotion strategies: what strategies? Adopting this strategy may be taxing on the business: How? Would it reduce market share, profit?

Hi there, I would really appreciate an ATAR estimate so I can goal set more effectively: 15/60 - English Advanced - 0.86 3/6 - Extension History - 0.87 Maths 2u (won't count so doesn't matter, but 25/32) - 63% 1/14 - Ancient History - 96% 8/22 - Modern History - 85% 2/63 - SOR 1 - 96%...

I just looked at your HSC results. How do you get so close to 100% in all your subjects, like don't you make mistakes? What did you do to get such a good score?

Hello, I was wondering if someone knows extra content that wasn't studied (From their own extensive reading) and features it in their essay, does it have a significant impact on the marks they can get (mainly humanities and history subjects)? Cheers

Hey, Since I started in high school, the idea of having a topic sentence at the start and link at the end of a paragraph (for essays) has been drained into me for all subjects so I can respond to the question . However as time has gone on the paragraphs have gotten larger, and now in year 12...

I'm confused how to take notes properly. My classmates seem to know more than me, and especially in subjects like history I do everything the teacher tells me to do, but I feel like I don't have enough knowledge to get full marks in my essays. I was recently wanting to get more knowledge, which...

Ok good, thankyou for clear definitions. Because if they ask in an essay for me to answer about a particular type of discover, I wouldn't know how to accurately approach it. Thanks for this

What are: Physical, Intellectual, Spiritual, Emotional discoveries?

If so how?

Well interestingly enough, I did exactly that. How he had good and bad memories, regrets etc, and the journey was him letting go, which he eventually does. I got 9/15 for it.
