Nah thats not them. Its like a rubric thats specifically on physical journeys and it just lays out everything needed about them. Just makes it easier to hedge when it comes to the essay question. Thanks anyway and go BaSc at Usyd next year!

This Area of Study requires students to explore the ways in which the concept of the journey is considered and expressed in and through texts.
In their responses and compositions students examine, question and reflect on:
• their observation and understanding of the portrayed events, people, ideas and societies that they encounter in and through the prescribed texts and texts of their own choosing related to the Area of Study
• the assumptions underlying the representations of journeys
• the ways in which they perceive the world through texts and speculate about it
• the ways they consider and express their own journey experiences.
They consider texts contained in the prescribed stimulus booklet Journeys (Board of Studies, 2003), which offers various points of view from which the Area of Study can be introduced. THIS APPLIES TO 2006 AND 2007 HSC ONLY. They also consider at least one of the texts prescribed for study and additional texts of their own choosing.
Students explore the concept of the journey through one of the three following focuses.
Focus: Physical Journeys
Through this focus, students explore the ways in which texts depict physical journeys and their impact. Physical journeys involve different types of obstacles and movement to new places. They provide opportunities for travellers to extend themselves physically, intellectually and emotionally as they respond to challenges and learn more about themselves and the world around them. Students examine the underlying assumptions about these physical journeys and consider the power of the physical journey to challenge their thinking. In their responding and composing, students reflect on the ways these physical journeys broaden their understanding of the world and themselves.
This information came directly from the syllabus page on the Board Of Studies web pagehttp://www.boardofstudies.nsw.edu.au/syllabus_hsc/pdf_doc/eng_stg6_prescrpt_0608.doc).
Otherwise the only rubric that can be found is the one on top of the Physical Journeys Question of Past Paper (as was mentioned earlier).
