    Can trials still be completed after the exam block?

    Re: D I ended up doing it :p But really? Do schools really give estimates for trials rather than just reschedule? Since it's such a huge chunk of our mark

    Thanks for the encouragement! I def needed it haha. I haven't seen too much advice regarding memorising for ex (as opposed to adv), but a lot of people seem to be against it since the question can be a curveball, however i've heard of people who memorise too. i definitely struggle to write...

    Should I stop studying for my worst subject if I do 12 units

    What would you recommend if i'm only on 10 units? In all my subjects i'm ranking in the top 30% of cohort, except for general. I'm 14/16 in general and my friend is 13/16 so i know there's a really big gap between me and her so i'm probably not going to catch up. And yup, studying time is...

    Can trials still be completed after the exam block?

    Hi, Do any of you know what will happen if i don't finish all my exams during the two week exam block? My school uses invigilators, so they definitely won't be able to monitor 'catch-up' exams after the block. I'm a bit sick, not sure if i should just cop it and do the exam or not on...

    Can i write my essay and then choose my question?

    So for my history extension major assignment, i keep diverting from my original question. Can i just write my essay and then decide on the question it suits? Or would this result in my essay being kinda all over the place where the points don't directly link to each other? Thanks!
