I believe I will need to change the plan slightly in the future when I receive the exact date that the MDP will need to be presented for marking.

I will be able to improve these points before Thursday for my presentation by narrowing them down to ‘at least four’, but until then I got the main ideas down and only have to extend them further. I will need to ‘justify each in detail’ when I get it down to four. I plan to go onto the internet and research statistics about the amount of students studying for the HSC, the significance of having no distractions while...
