I'm just wondering, do you think it would be a good idea for PDHPE to use pre written notes like the ones offered by ATAR Notes but you still write your own notes for options? Like can you do really well if you practice a lot even with pre made notes? Is it even maybe possible to rank?

Going off what Jamon said, I never once wrote my own notes during my HSC last year instead I just completely devoted my study time to past papers and practice questions. I think it depends on what kind of learner you are, so if you're the type that can learn from reading a slab of text, or writing out key points (I definitely know a few ppl like that) then I'd say writing notes may be a good idea. A really good friend of mine last year wrote the most amazing, detailed and comprehensive notes for all of her subjects, putting a lot of time and effort into them and came away with a 98.25 ATAR. However for me (and A LOT of other people I know) who are more practical based learners it is really a waste of time (well maybe not a complete waste of time, but definitely time that would be better spent on other things).

Of course I didn't study PDHPE so it might be different. However those are my two cents. A happy medium I'd say is to not write complete, detailed course notes for everything, but maybe just 1 page summary sheets for each topic on the MOST important stuff that you can easily go over before an exam, or stuff that is directly related to exam responses such as detail and linking tables (not sure if they're applicable to PDHPE, but i used them a lot for other subjects).

I've just revived my sports med marks back from last term and i'm not too happy... i was marked down on an answer in regards to children and athletes because my "example was weak"... I have enclosed it below and was just wondering how I could make it stronger? A lot of girls in my class thing they mark unreasonable!

Epilepsy is the disruption of brain function, which causes a brief alteration to the level of consciousness and results in seizures or fits. Coaches, trainers, parents or supervisors should know what to do if a seizure occurs. Children and young athletes should follow their doctor’s advice on what activities they should partake in, but generally most sports are safe to participate in. However, if a child is prone to have seizures regularly, they should avoid high contact sports such as rugby league. In addition to, rock climbing and scuba diving should also be avoided, as there is an increased risk of harm if the individual loses consciousness. For example; a child with epiplepsy playing soccer should ensure his coach is aware of of the issue. The trainers would advise the opposing team to especially avoid contact as it may instigate seizure. If an attack were to occur during the soccer match; the child should not be restrained, obstacles should be moved away and their head should be supported. To manage epilepsy, children and young athletes should keep hydrated, shouldn’t be overtrained and they should avoid stressful situations.

Hi i was wondering how you could know how much you need to/ if you have covered enough content in the larger mark questions such as 10 mark questions? Thank you

Hi sorry one more thing, but what is the best recommended one to choose to study for the Ottawa Charter in action in core 1? Thank you

How did you structure your 8 marks or more questions. Sometimes I feel like I'm not writing enough. Is there a particular structure you follow or anything important to remember?
