Family, consumer, workplace and world order law, examined through the same effectiveness lens as the core.
These are the statements the Legal Studies syllabus makes about Options. Dux records each one against the questions you answer, so you can see which of them you have actually been tested on and which have never been asked.
Marriage, de facto relationships, dissolution, parenting and property, and the shift from fault to no-fault.
Consumer guarantees, misleading conduct and redress, and the limits of individual enforcement.
Employment contracts, awards, unfair dismissal and work health and safety obligations.
International law, state sovereignty and enforcement, and why the absence of a global police force matters.
Over-representation in custody, native title and the legal recognition of customary practice.
Environmental planning law, regulation and enforcement, and the difficulty of protecting a diffuse public interest.
HSC Legal Studies - Trial Paper Shape is 100 marks in 180 minutes. Questions on Options are not one shape repeated: the command word decides what the marker is looking for, and the mark value decides how much of it. These are the ones Legal Studies uses.
Dux writes practice for this module in exactly these shapes, so the drill is the same task the paper sets — not a general knowledge quiz with the module name on it.
Options is module 4 of 4 in Legal Studies. Students routinely lose marks because a question spans two modules, so the neighbouring modules are worth reading next to this one.
Dux diagnoses Legal Studies dot point by dot point, then writes questions in the shape this course marks. Written answers come back marked against the bands.
