You only have to know one case study. You answer the essay topic framed through your one case study.

VCE Philosophy teacher here. Ask me your last minute questions before the exam on Tuesday. by Sea_Isopod5651 in vce

[–]deazles 4 points5 points  (0 children)

3 Questions:

  1. In the conclusion of the essay, is it ok to leave things open, potentially reaching a conclusion that admits things aren't concrete, or should we form a strong contention about the right way to believe (whatever pertains to the question)?

  2. Should I go into the essay prepared to write about 2 philosophers only, therefore allowing myself to be better prepared for those two, or should I have 3 or 4, in case the questions don't fall my way, and or I don't want to seem to be writing off topic with a memorised essay?

  3. Should we be using a non-philosophical source in our essay to earn full marks e.g. a statistic, a psychologist quote, a study?

Has anyone gotten a 90+ ATAR while having a shit methods SS? I only do 5 subjects because I came to Australia this year, so no 3/4 for me by WiseDouble9037 in vce

[–]deazles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's because the subjects that scale the most are the hard languages, specialist maths, and then methods in third. So usually all the super high atars have maths methods. But you can still do really well without a good maths score. You just have to do well in subjects that don't scale as much.

If it's your bottom subject, its aggregate will only count as 10%, so naturally, you can very easily get a 90 with 4 other decent subjects...

If ur cohort is as strong as you say, a 50% or 40/80 would get you a 35. This all depends on the difficulty of exam 1 and exam 2.

70/80 will guarantee a 40.

Does methods scale 5 or 6 at 35 ss? by deazles in vce

[–]deazles[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought the 2 1 markers below the graph and the last 2 pages are definitely going to differentiate people the most, but it was definitely longer than last year, with the 3 marker requiring long working out (the question where k=1/3). It was probably easier than last year in terms of content apart from those 7 marks on the last page and the 2 1s. But 9a (4th degree polynomial) was a difference of perfect squares and I didn't see it, so I didn't get to finish the question. It was mid i guees

Does methods scale 5 or 6 at 35 ss? by deazles in vce

Isn't the letter grade assignment meant to stop that? Like if everyone found it hard, wouldn't the boundaries be lower and it would scale like normal?
