does anyone agree with me that the style of questioning is hard for a 1 unit subject?

pfft... YES! Most of the questions seem to be specifically designed to trick us. Perfect example:

CSSA Trial 2003
Multiple choice q2
"The aboriginal concept of the dreaming can best be described as:
A: a continuous whole where past present and future meet
B: An explanation of how life came to be
C: all that is known and understood
D: All of the above

Now, looking at that question i thought hey they can all be used to describe the dreaming. BUT looking at the word BEST i thought how can it be all of the above? Doesnt best mean one?? so stupid me picked c or sometyhing when the answer was D!

Dammit....

yes it is hard, but if you look at a handful of past papers, you realise that the questions are VERY similar

i loved the hsc paper... multiple choice, abo's and re in aust 1900 -> present were great! loved it. But some of the multiple choice are tricky and I HATE making stupid mistakes when they trick us. I agree... saz that question was gay but its lucky im a good guesser!
