This lecture will provide students with a detailed, step by step guide to the VCE Philosophy examination. The needs of each section of the paper will be discussed as well as strategies for approaching different types of questions, including those relating to stimulus materials. Students will also be introduced to a variety of techniques that can be used to organise their preparation and ensure they get the most out of their study time. Please note this will be an interactive session; to get the most out of it, students should expect to participate in discussion and attempt some set exercises.
Overall, students will be given detailed, practical strategies to confidently enhance their skills and therefore maximise their potential exam performance, and therefore enhancing both their critically-important Philosophy Study Score and ATAR score.
