How did you go?
« on: November 09, 2012, 05:11:33 pm »
Title is self-explanatory. This thread is purely for exam discussion ONLY.

Also, if someone has a spare copy of the exam paper - if they could kindly scan and upload it, that would be much appreciated.

I enjoyed it! Majority of the questions were very straightforward and on areas that I knew really well!
Hope everyone else enjoyed it! xx

But I think I broke my hand :( So sore!

I was satisfied with how I went. YEAR 12 IS OVER!!! :D

Bit disappointed that Canada was overlooked for a second year in a row considering how much I studied for it.

Pretty good exam overall. Most questions were straightforward with the possible exception of the second last one, which required a little thought. Only finished with a second to go though, so didn't get a chance to look over answers.

Yes you will since it referred to high court cases, america is really irrelevant to that question as it only asks for Australia. You need to discuss a case not what is apart of American law

But i explained structural, entreched, implied rights + referendum + 1 high court case

than at the end i said however australia's protection of rights is not perfect, as they do not have a bill of rights such as usa

will i lose alot of marks?

That exam was fantastic!
A lot of writing (but obviously that was expected)

Was surprised there was nothing relative to the high court cases interpretation we needed to know such as tasmanian dams case but meh

Yaaaay
