But honestly for me I do better when I do 0 study than when I study so much and end up doing poorly cause of anxiety. My anxiety is so bad that even when I get a tiny bit stressed my whole world comes crashing down so I just need to try and stop caring as much as possible. But obv I will care so I'll still put in some effort but not stress too much

same here

But that’s like what many tutors charge. I think it’s usually between 60-90

tutoring is a scam

 

[m_avi]

what is the price you all pay/would pay for 1 on 1 maths yr 12 tutoring? i am trying to get a consensus of the current pricing for tutoring

i go for adv and i pay $65 for someone who did ext 2 math. (i think i pay a discounted price though og was 75 bucks)

[Study to success]

me on weekends
me as soon as the week starts

I actually hate the slump that I get into during the week cause on weekends I will be so happy, full of energy and then during the week I'll start falling into my anxiety and losing hope

I learnt in sac that only 6% of Gen Z are planning to stay in full-time work in the future. That's crazy. Apparently also side hustles are increasing cause it's harder to find full-time work so at least this gives me the opportunity to get creative

everything you say to me
TAKES ME ONE STEP CLOSER TO THE EDGE, AND I'M ABOUTTA BREAK

 

[ellurbee]

hello guys, what does your usual day look like after school?

on a good day, i have a snack and rest until like 4:30 ( i get home around 4 from bus) and then i'll do some work from around 5-6, taking some breaks in between, then i'll either get dinner ready and have a shower, or the other way around, then i'll procrastinate for a little bit then at around 8-bed time i'll do some homework and study as best as i can focus until i end up crashing out and going to sleep.

can someone help me or give me tips and stuff(anything will be appreciated

Firstly, it's normal to feel nervous or anxious about Year 12. It's quite an important year of your life, and if you play your cards right, you could end up getting into the course or degree you want. I know there are other ways into uni, but I'm not one of those people who tries to make people feel better by offering them an alternative path to the one they want. Myself like most people just want to get into the degree straight away, rather than spend an extra year in some college getting a diploma first.

To combat your nervousness I recommend taking your studies one step at a time. At the moment your HSC exams probably seem pretty daunting,not to mention your trials coming up sooner. At the end of the day, I believe that they will come when they do. There's no point worrying about the future now, just focus on what you can control in the present. Putting in the work now will help you feel more confident for those exams later.

For time management, writing a plan of what you want to do is the most important. Use your phone's note app as you go through classes to track homework, extra study or revision. I find that this is the best way to keep yourself accountable. Remember that you don't need to balance your classes each night, and if you don't finish a certain piece of homework, do not stress. I know it will suck, but sometimes weekends will allow you to catch up, or if you have study classes, then use those. Make sure also to include whatever extra curriculas in your timetable and plan around those.

Alternatively, an important thing with time management is to limit distractions. I loved playing clash during HSC, but to minimise how distracted I was, I often had to delete the app. I wouldn't recommend this to most people, but I would suggest keeping your phone in another room away from sight. This is really effective at not letting any notifications or emails distract you, and you'll find that you end up fitting in more 'effective study' compared to before.

Good Luck with your HSC!

Idk gaslight urself into thinking none of this counts. And throughout ur day just try to distract urself. Ik these are really bad tips but idk what else to do

also reverse psych but if u think ur nervousness will affect ur ability to do well then thinking of alternative paths will alleviate ur stress and you’ll actually be more likely to get straight into uni that way. Cause if u stress abt wanting to get into uni straight away that will actually be counter productive and the opposite may happen. So as long as it doesn’t affect ur productivity this could work

actually for most uni’s it doesn’t take an extra year cause after u complete the diploma u get straight into 2nd year with the rest. So ur not really wasting time and you’ll end up with the same degree whilst also not letting ur metna

Idk after suffering so much from mental health I’ve just prioritised it over everything else and I’d rather have peace than get into a good uni especially if there are other paths to my career. Cause having a peace of mind ik will give me much more fulfilment and joy than stressing myself out. So I’ve just being trying to avoid being stressed at all costs. Plus if regardless ur atar, u still get the same jobs as others like what’s the point of destroying ur mental health. Obv if u want to do law or med then it’s a different story but if not it’s fine

like I’d rather have a semi decent job than a high paying job where I’ll have to stress my whole childhood/ adulthood

also i like to look at what will give me the most happiness but will also allow me to live decently. For me personally, getting the same jobs, but the path to getting there be different/ longer will give me much more happiness then stressing out to get straight into uni and then ending up with the same job than if I had taken a different route.

srry for yapping cause I just want to voice my opinions but also the main reason why I want a good job is for money which is supposedly meant to lead me to happiness. But I have found that money cannot buy happiness so as long as I’m not broke I don’t need success if it’s not going to bring me happiness. Cause for me that’s the root reason why I’m trying to do well in the hsc but now I’m realising that it’s not the only way to it. So finding the root reason for ur ambitions may help u decide whether or not it really is necessary and whether or not u need to change ur mindset to reduce stress

anyways that’s my insights on this. Srry for the long yap
