Yeah, in my last speech I spoke too quickly cos I was sick, so I went slow in RE and went for 45 seconds longer than I had timed it to be. And the class I'm in for Chem cos I'm repeating it, is a class of Year 11 accelerants, with 4 year 12s, and 4 repeating it like me. She just teaches thing a...

Gen Maths: 81%, rank=8 or 9/50ish End Adv, AoS: 78% SoR: 75% IPT: 84%, 1/12 Chem: 58% Overall, a bit disappointed in my marks despite my preparation and revision. I had a fair amount of stupid mistakes in Maths, went over time in RE speech so lost 4 marks, there's no way I want Eco back -- the...

The most 'unusual' thing to happen during our exams was there was a funeral practice by our school in the church next to the hall. It wasn't too loud or anything until the music teacher was leading in the singing practice -- he doesn't need a microphone, but insists on one, so he is heard at the...

I'm enjoying these holidays. Having only one week of exams meant everything was rather close together, and had no real time for myself or for me to see my friends, so that's what I'll be doing. Second week of holidays I'll re-read Cloudstreet and start writing some notes for it, catch up in Eco...

Out of all my exams, I'm only confident with IPT, and Maths to an extent. Chem was shit -- nothing like the HSC, the yr11s in the class aren't going to know what's hitting them for the HSC. Absolutely hated the exam, and so did everyone I talked to about it. Finished exams and school yesterday...

I had Gen Maths first on Wednesday. Nice and easy, but I forgot everything about home loans, so fucked up that question and a few other random ones, I think. English AoS on Thurs, rushed through my narrative and it didn't exactly have much of a journey in it, but I'm used to screwing up the...

I guess I can put it down to last year with the Chem HSC, our teacher just did so much for us, we were never inconvenienced and it gave me false hope for this year :p I felt more confident today when the assistant course teacher gave us a "power lesson" when I had to skip Eng to see him, so...

It's 20% I can see why he's doing it, but just to spring it on like that seemed unfair. We're all doing it at different schools, my friend and I the exception, the rest of the class doesn't know what day we're doing the exam, we usually do assessments within 2-3 days of each other because of...

I got told on yesterday that my Economics exam has been brought forward to Friday, instead of next Monday. I do the course online, with a handful of others from the diocese, there are two at my school, plus the course overseer/"teacher", and the half yearly is officially set for Friday,but my...

I'm quite stressed, semi-burnt out, and just waiting for the holidays. On top of that, I'm regretting my suject choices, particularly Economics Online, because I have no teacher, the text book has way too much information, I hate the syllabus, and my exam was just brought forward from next...

I have a book for each subject, do all my notes in them, and then type up the necessary notes, print them out, and put them in display folders for each subject/module. I also have A4 folders for the most important subjects, and colour-code my subjects. Then for the up-coming half yearlies, I...

My school hasn't even started organising them -- every SRC member I ask passes the buck to someone else, then says it's not their area -.- I should just organise it, I'll just take all the 05's ideas and sketches, but I don't cope well with people complaining about how I do things -- already...

Most of our exams are in the Hall, sometimes, if it's only one small class we use the library because that's relatively out of the way. I did Chem last year in the Hall, which isn't exactly part of the school, more of a Parish hall. Our RE speeches are held in two of the Yr12 homerooms. My...

Wednesday (6th) -- Gen Maths, Sport. Thursday -- English Paper 1 Friday -- IPT Monday -- RE speech, Economics Tuesday -- Chemistry Wednesday -- English Paper 2. Sport. Last day of term.

Yeah, I have a feeling I'll share your pain this year. The music teacher/choir conductor had the "specially selected" choir sing the Year 12 song they wrote themselves last year at the graduation mass, against their wishes. Sounded terrible, cos all you could hear were the choir skanks and not...

What exactly are prefects? We have the Student Rep Council at my school, if they're the same sorta thing.

At the moment, I feel like I'm in too deep -- teachers have been telling me they expected more from me and I'm not showing anything better than average. I'm absolutely stressed on most days, today isn't so bad because I don't have assessments due until the half yearlies, which I'm semi-prepared...

I voted myself, because I have too many bad habits I can't break from, and also little-to-no coping with stress skills -- if I was someone else I'd be fine and not be so on edge. Time is also an enemy, but if I could actually handle my time better and be able to go to sleep quicker, it wouldn't...
