literally me too, walked intro trials with no prepared case studies and pulled through with a 19/20 for my essay

what the flip dude was your question easy??

How do you get good marks in a discursive? cause since its not imaginative, you can't really use show not tell and figurative language can you?, and isn't that what mainly gets you the marks for imaginative?

you can use some figurative language and descriptions in ur discursive - ive seen a cool one in a sample that was a hybrid style. You still want to be using metaphors, similes, rhetorical qs, experimentation with words and positioning, differed sentence structure, deliberate punctuation, anecdotes, personal voice and prononouns etc. Its just more of a discussion.

i wont lie it definitely could've been harder but i sat the independent paper and the multiple choice was shit

 

[sainzsgf]

how the hell do people do this. i did a decent amount and still got like 15

i try and do 3 case studies per paragraph and make sure their all succinct with each other so that when i reference different things in the paragraph i can integrate them back and forth without dropping it one sentnece and not referring back to it, from feedback ive gotten, my teacher has said this makes for a more cohesive response, which means u can hit the a range marks, my advice would be just to spend like a good 5 minutes for planning out your response and where u can stick the case studies examples in, you could even steal them from the short answer or multiple choice, just refer to an actual business that may use that example.

statisics don't even have to be exact just make them sound realistic, like apple making $600 billion in net profit sounds ridiculous, and the hsc markers will see right through it, it'd help to use smaller businesses as examples bc the hsc markers know their shit when it comes to apple, qantas, and mcdonalds, so its harder for them to see through the fake example and then this also makes ur response not look exactly like the last 10 responses they've just marked lmao

yea this guy who used to go to my school did hsc a few years ago and blitzed bisos. apparently you dont need actual stats but you should make them sound realistic so that the marker doesnt subconsciously bias against you. but im not taking his word for it

It's definitely possible to do well in your HSC with six days of focused study, but it will require a strategic approach. Here are some tips to maximize your effectiveness in that limited time:

1. Prioritize Topics: Identify which subjects or topics you're less confident in and prioritize those. Focus on high-weight content that is likely to appear in the exam.
2. Create a Study Schedule: Break down your study time into manageable chunks. For example, allocate specific blocks of time for each subject and stick to that schedule to cover all areas.
3. Practice Past Papers: Familiarize yourself with the exam format and question types by practicing past HSC papers. This can help you identify patterns in questioning and improve your time management during the actual exam.
4. Active Revision Techniques: Use active recall methods, such as flashcards or teaching the material to someone else, to reinforce your memory. This technique is often more effective than passive reading.
5. Seek Help: If there are concepts you find challenging, don’t hesitate to ask teachers, classmates, or tutors for clarification. Engaging with others can help solidify your understanding.
6. Stay Healthy: Make sure to get enough rest, eat well, and take breaks to avoid burnout. A clear mind will help you retain information better.

While six days isn't ideal, many students have successfully turned around their study habits in a short time. Focused effort and smart strategies can lead to a successful outcome. Just stay motivated and positive!

Not all of my responses are 'chatgpt responses'. Though some of my responses may sound 'chatgpt-ish' due to it becoming such a popular AI engine in the last year. If for example, we were in 2022, no one would've questioned this but I get where you are coming from and I apologise
