Does anyone have a list of all the possible text types the HSC exam could ask you to write in, as well as the conventions/features of each?

look, dude, potentially they could ask u for any text type, but they probably won't. id focus on things like feature articles and speeches. they'll NEVER ask u 2 write a poem. EVER. its 2 hard 2 make a discriminating marking criteria for. conventions vary between the text types obviously, so i wont write any up here, it would take 2 long. is there any on particular u wanted?

I'm not sure, it was photocopied from one of those helpful english books

edit: I'm trying to upload the scanned text types but there's something wrong with the process. It keeps coming up saying "Cannot Display Page" or something
