    How much should I write for those 4 and 5 mark questions?

    What if they ask me to draw a data flow/context diagram as a 5 mark answer. Should I include any text explaining the diagram or will the diagram alone be sufficient? Can they remove marks for the extra information? otherwise I'd be inclined to just add some notes outlining the external...

    Anyone know this ERD question?

    I got D as well, but I suck at these so it was largely a guess. My logic: Customer - transaction = One to Many. One customer can make many transactions, but one transaction cant have many customers. Transaction - video = Many to one. Many barcodes can be used in the transaction process (for...

    How do you memorise massive loads of content?

    I dont do SOR, but I thought that I could share some input. How I memorise information for modern history: Conceptually: Know one event. Know why it happened, and what happened from it.

    Hsc modern history - scaling?

    I'm dumb as fuck...but does cohort refer to your school or the state? How does it affect aligning? I'm coming 1/5 students. I'm on 91/100 ...the lowest is 50/100. Do these stats determine anything?

    Perhaps I'm not writing enough for the extended responses...but while I normally have only minutes to spare in english and history, IPT seems to finish very quickly. Anyone else?

    I have no idea how you got 19/20 for that. I couldn't finish it (seriously). It seriously read as though you had only just discovered the existence of a thesaurus.

    Steps involved in drawing a context/data flow diagram?

    I'm pretty shit at drawing these. Context is pretty easy, but DFDs can be so complex, I almost always miss important shit. What process do you guys do to draw one? I've started making a preparation guide for every DFD I draw. I write down the processes, external entities and data stores and...
