Just had my last trial exam - now how should I pace myself? (1 Viewer)

[emilios]

I just had 3 exams in 3 days (eco, physics then chem) and it's safe to say I'm exhausted. I've been studying pretty consistently throughout the year but I've been in overdrive for the past 2 weeks, and I feel like it's really taken it's toll on me. I never thought I would 'burn out' but it's hard to imagine doing that all over again. With the mere 7-8 weeks that are left till the HSC, how intensely should I be going? 2 past papers for each of my subjects a week (I have 6 subs) or is that too much? I really want to leave some juice in the tank for the HSC but this year has been brutal and I'm overwhelmed.

Take this weekend off and relax and then next week as you get your trial marks back, refine areas where you lost marks. When studying, do not study like you did the night before an exam or the week before an exam, because that is just like intense studying with very minimal breaks. Instead study with breaks here and there. Also start doing HSC papers
