    what is the best way to study for bio?

    I just printed syllabus and highlighted stuff I 100% knew then went through the dot points that weren't highlighted. I basically just read them and tried to recall it a bit in my head after reading the dot point. Also do past papers and ask for feedback from your teacher, and swap past papers...

    Maths Help

    Minus cosx to both sides, so sqrt3 sinx - cosx = 0 cosx (sqrt3 tanx - 1) = 0 cosx = 0 and tanx = 1/sqrt3 cosx = 0 isn't valid since tan(pi/2) doesn't exist so only tanx = 1/sqrt3 is a solution x = pi/6 then the other solutions depend on the domain of x In this case dividing by cosx on both...

    Most effective way to study content heavy topics

    Tbh just understand the content with a lot of detail, like for biology I asked the most questions in our cohort's group chat even tho I was first LOL, just to understand small stuff Everyone studies differently tho, I don't 100% know what to attribute high marks to, it's probably a combination...

    A rant about english

    Yea I've never used anything learnt from HSC english since then, like when am I ever gonna need to analyse a text for its themes and quotes ever in my life... But the flowery vocabulary I'd say is only if you want 95+, I still got band 6 with my very basic vocabulary (since I never read books so...

    Most effective way to study content heavy topics

    In my opinion learning the content is much better than doing practice questions, since that's basically all I did for my trials since I crammed. For the HSC I did like 5-10 papers but I had no time to mark them, so it was basically useless, but I did spend the time memorising content instead and...

    how to stay motivated?

    Honestly motivation comes and goes so it's not what is essential for studying. Making studying a habit lets u study everyday even when motivation is low. Personally I had bad study habits so always had to cram and stuff but I think if you make studying part of your daily habits then it'll...

    help - running out of time

    You're probably assigning too many tasks and being too ambitious about how much work can be done. I did this in high school too and I still do it up to this day. And then since the list is overly ambitious then you feel like you've done no work even if you make progress. So yeah I'd recommend...

    How much time fornightly does the average HSC student study?

    For the whole HSC year it was just rushing homework every night cos I had bad self control, so kept having to stay up late to finish homework. Then crammed for trials (we had 3 sets of trials) because of procrastinating. But for HSC I tried a schedule of past papers to revise/content to...

    How much time fornightly does the average HSC student study?

    Sounds fine but if you go to school then study for 5 hours when you get home, it might be too tiring. If this is during holidays then it might be fine.

    Do internals really matter?

    The ranks matter and the relative gaps between each rank, not the marks

    inequality

    This is probably gonna be a dumb question but what's the symbol on the LHS, e.g. (something - a^2)?
