I have real ones for every point in the syllabus (my teacher made sure we did this...smartest thing ever) but if its necessary I'll make one up...

I dont do that for the essay, I just make sure I have a helluva lot of case studies, and so, for every point I make I say, as is shown in the case of rah rah rah... But in the report I use a huge amount of diagrams/swot analyses etc. Makes it look longer, and explains the points you make very...

Just figuring it out, I give myself roughly around an hour for each. I never realised I gave myself so much time. Maybe thats why in my trials I got almost full marks for the last 2 sections, and ended up losing about 10% of my marks in short answer. I need to do some practice papers to get my...

I do the same thing for business. I fly through the multiple choice, and short answers. That gives me heaps of time for report and essay. Do you mean you spend 70 mins on just the essay though?? Cause thats solid. I spread the extra time over both, not just focussing on the essay. 15 mins for...

paradoxical quote ftw. Will. Thats insane. Surely you must feel some stress. Just a little bit? Maybe? I was completely confident about a week ago as well. Then the confidence came crashing down. But I'm not really stressed now, just worried... if that even makes sense.

I have no idea, but in the forty minutes I get about 4-5 a4 pages... legible writing. What takes me the most time is understanding and interpreting the question and planning out how I'm going to do it. That takes me about 5-10 mins a question.

Yeah, but then I'd miss like 2 days after that catching up on sleep.

I think my study will increase in that first few days before each exam, because I'll be worrying so much about it.

I hate that. Happened to me as well this morning. I looked at some maths just then for about 15 minutes. Argh. I know it has to be done. But i dont want to be the one who has to do it. :mad1:

You know that 8 minute abs... well I got something that'll blow that outta the water... 7 minute abs. (damn I love "There's something about mary").

Thats solid ahen. I've done 5.5, 2, 4.5, 2 and around 4 hours respectively for each day this week. Better than nothing I suppose.

I know the feeling. Its slowly disappearing. The whole year I've been like, woah the HSC, thats ages away, no worries. Now we're almost there. :bomb:

Yeah, I hate smart people who rub it in. Nothing worse. Absolutely nothing. But if someone just goes well because they're naturally smart then good on them. Some people are just like that. I mean, I could probably not study for a couple of topics and pull band 5s (but im talking easy subjects...

Ouch. Thats harsh. I only got business and english back to back. And thats scaring the hell outta me.

I dunno. I think that in order for someone to have done well through the year they would have to have done something (or be a child prodigy)... I mean if they spent hours going over their concepts in july, why should they need to study too hard now. But meh, I say if someone's really good enough...

Just did some Ancient History past questions, then read back over them. They sound like a 7 year old's story. I mean wtf??!! I'm just not in the game today.

Having just read this thread. This is the most insightful input.

Oh a club. Can I join. I can be a paradox. Look. slack-studying. See:rofl: ... As I've studied for the past few days I've come to realise how screwed I am. I wish I hadn't studied, then I would still be confident as...:mad1:

I have legal. That's close enough to the end of it for me. 1 month and 3 days. That is all. Then I am freeeeeeee!

Re: my essays I think Alter Ego=awesome poem. But so different to all the others we study. I do like Harwood's poetry, just wish we didn't have to actually do anything but enjoy it.
