does anybody have tips for the crime section of legal studies or can lead me to a forum with advice? how many paragraphs would you recommend memorising etc and maybe predictions for this year hsc? the section really confuses me and for my trials we knew the question for the crime section (because we had just started the topic) so I had paragraphs prepared but im starting to get really nervous that i will be underprepared and my memorised paragraphs wont be appropriate for the crime section in the real thing since i havent done it properly before... someone please help...

crime is hard cos its the biggest content area but there is ways around it. paragraphs i'd say 3 small or 2 big ones, so like 1 exam booklet is good. doing a matrix is great, i can send u one, just goes over the different Themes and Challenges and what u can write for each, eg its usually good to have bail, police powers and like a sentencing one cos they go with a lot. i would hate them if they gave us a very niche question like on role of juries or international crime, but thats so mean they shouldnt. so most questions are from the T and C and having judgement language is very important too

i’ve heard that hsc markers want to give you marks, and it’s generally easier than trials

my teachers have done hsc marking before and for english specifically they go a bit easier at least that's what they said they do

have an "essay" or lcmdi prepared for investigation, trial process, sentencing, young offenders and eeeek international. Pick a few syllabus dot points under each and gather lcmdi for them, then start practicing under time to past questions. If youre lost about what to write about ask your teacher for past samples or look online for essays and lcmdi. My teacher has always suggested 3-4 paragraphs and you often can combine some syllabus points into 1 para. Only have like 30 mins, so dont make the essay too long. Do past questions that make you feel uncomfortable, pick hard ones so youre ready!! youve already memorised one for trials so dont practice that, do another topic.

identify what questions you got wrong, then match those questions to where they were from the syllabus and write that down. eg; for my earth exam i got pollen as evidence wrong, that is module 7.2.1 from the syllabus. then once youve written down what syallbus dotpoints youve got wrong, recap on those syllabus dotpoints and do hsc questions specifically for that dotpoint.

for the syllabus dotpoint thing btw the first number represents what module it was from eg; 7 equals module 7. then the second one represents the heading it was from, then the third the dotpoint of the heading.
