    General Thoughts: Legal Studies 2005

    Hey for the example of a source of INTERNATIONAL and DOMESTIC law, what did everyone put? For international law I used the Statute of Rome which gives power to the International Criminal Court and I forgot what I did for domestic law. I couldn't say that the Statute of Rome (or Rome...

    General Thoughts: Legal Studies 2005

    Which of the following is a collective human right? (a) Self-determination (b) Trade unionism (c) Universal Education (d) Universal suffrage I picked B, who else did? I just remember hearing all the time this term 'collective bargaining' and thought that Trade Unionism fits in with...

    Wilfred Owen

    Shit I only wrote one paragraph, I couldn't be bothered wasting time for 5 marks with knowledge of just two poems indepth. So I moved onto the next section. It was a question to test your intertextuality abilities. I think a lot of teachers will stop trying to assume what the HSC will ask...

    Wilfred Owen

    If I remember the question correctly then yes, you had to use the entire collection, not just one or two poems. When I saw the question, my first reaction was FUCK..... And then I wrote a sentence and then went onto Section III :D and then I went back at the end of the exam to finish off the...

    the i hate english thread. . .

    Well at least ENGLISH is all over red rover. WE DONT HAVE TO THINK ABOUT STANDARD ENGLISH EVER AGAIN.... thank god for that. But English (most of it) is soooo irrelevant when it comes to university and TAFE. The only thing you need to know is how to write an essay at university, and even...

    Wilfred Owen

    You did have to use the entire collection of poems for full marks. The way they wanted it answered was that you use ONE poem as the backbone of your piece of writing and link it with the other poems. If someone just used ONE poem and none of the the others, then they will get very low marks...

    Hard AS!!

    What about this (in Windows XP): START > Settings > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Computer Management > Disk Management. This tool allows you to change the file system (i.e. between FAT32 and NTFS) and also allows you to change the space allocation between disks and create new...

    How do you use exam booklets?

    How did you personally use your exam booklets? I know this is a funny question. But did you write each question part (i.e. (a) (b) ) one under another or did you start a brand new page for each question regardless of how much of the former page you used? My legal studies teacher told us...

    AOS Exam Scan

    Has nothing to do with the school. The school is not the one supervising, the school isn't setting the rules. You would have noticed that none of your teachers were in there once the exam started.

    How did u link Q3 with yourself?

    It depends on the academic field as to what governs the style of writing. English (in this sense) should not be in the 1st person. We had this drilled into us for the last two years, even getting marked down if we used first person. Yes, some academic fields do use 1st person, but the...

    who ran out of time?!

    We were made to do that at the beginning of the exam before even reading time started when the exam covenor was going through the exam. I'm not sure if thats how it is meant to be done though. He had us open our exam papers before reading time started. He said: "turn to page 1" it says "blank...

    How did u link Q3 with yourself?

    I agree with you. The HSC English syllabus is all based around memorising rather than analysing texts. It has nothing to do with an understanding. If you can memorise a few quotes, the meanings of these quotes (told to you by the teacher) and the effect it has on the responder (also told to...

    How did u link Q3 with yourself?

    I didn't do well in this section because for the last two years our class has been taught NEVER (and I mean never as we were marked down if we ever did) write an essay with the words: ME, MY, I etc, if it is not a direct quote from a text. You could never write an essay in the first person. I...
