in my trials i got by with a 21 and 24 in the essays only writing 2 paragraphs do yall think this is still feasible for the hsc
if you got that level of marks it sounds like you might be writing good essays that just need to be broken up a bit more. sadly i believe modern markers are strict about format so if u wanna get the top top marks maybe work on that. but really if you did that well on the trial i doubt you'll do Bad on the hsc

for reals? My teacher kept dissing my formatting but I had 3 paragraphs which I think thematically would not make much sense if broken up to that degree- :cry:

well i think it's mostly about readability so if you think spacing it out will sacrifice readability then don't worry too hard about it. just remember that each paragraph should ideally have a single main idea. btw i could be all wrong abt this im just speculating based on what ive heard from my teacher and from past exams

they did power struggle last year and social and cultural change was 2022, stalin essay defintely- rise or political
They did foreign policy 2 years in a row and not long before that too so I don't like to predict based on what hasn't been asked recently I think it is completely up in the air

hey girl how do you get 24/25, did you do a nuanced argument or only argued one side, added alot of historians? i always get 20-21 for my essa
ive gotten 24/25 with 0 historians. they rlly dont matter, its just sometimes they help and boost the reliability of ur argument, but, if ur not used to using them dont start now cause some ppl just use them instead of their own evidence which is bad and leads 2 u losing marks instead of gaining them

Anyone know for Russia if they can specify something eg instead of broad economic change just like the give year plans as a q
yh they can, but they'd normally have it be a TWE or assess how much so u can bring in other elements. e.g. how they taked abt the use of terror in political transformation but it was a TWE so u can add other things u just need a paragraph on it
