I heard people make a complete timetable of their week (include free time, eating dinner ect.) and follow that timetable and apparently it works. I still manage to play club soccer, go out with friends and do homework. Its all about getting into a pattern that works for your lifestyle.

I was shocked aswell :D

It is good to see I am not the only one who hasnt jumped straight back into school work for term 2. I am having a similar problem aswell, procrastination is becoming a daily ritual. The only subject I am really taking seriously is Maths. Shock has a habit of shaking me out of my apathy. I...

I dont really remember if I made one of these. If I did then it was probably pretty crap, so heres the low down. Sarah is my name, common and boring. I am Australian, I love the beach and the sun. I dont like school but cant stand to thought of become another faceless city dweller wearing a...

Wow thats great! Congrats. I'm coming first in English (Advanced and Extension) and Chemistry My goal for this term is to pick up my bio and maths marks and keep these positions. Do you have hot competition in Chem and Business?? Or are they just subjects you arent as good as the others in (of...

I agree, it shows you that through hard work and determination anyone can succeed. Its all about how much you truly want to do well in the end, if you have no determination to succeed then you wont, keep your cool, relax and study hard :)

Are there actually people who get that low. So can someone get a UAI of 1?

I suggest not dropping it. If you need a good UAI and Advanced Maths is a prerequisite for what you are looking at its probably best you stick to it. Are you having trouble with understanding the work or did you make calculation errors in the exam eg silly mistakes? I have looked at the...

Thanks for the feedback guys, its really helpful. Especially lyounamu, its obvious in your posts you have alot of determination and passion to succeed. I am going to try to apply myself better at home (studying ect.), I have slacked off recently and these results are what I needed to get...

I always did so bad in those. I remember doing Basic Skills in Year 3 and 5, was there any real point to them?

I have never exactly been amazing at maths but not bad, I was hoping for a high band 5/ low band 6 in my HSC. I know if I work hard enough I can acheive that. The entire exam situation gets to me and I panic and mess up my answers. For example, pages of working out provided these answers: 56>0...

I recieved my half yearly results today and I got 40% in extension test and 61% in my advanced. Alot of kids had trouble (one guy got 6%). My teacher told me afterwards, when I was contemplating suicide, that I need to work on study techniques and preperation for tests because I run out of time...

Re: Could any body tell... Um, maybe you should work on your english? With the UAI, are your raw marks in your HSC usually lower or higher than your actual UAI? (if that makes sense)

Anything over 90 would be awesome. I need to be realistic.

HAHA that is a good reason to do multiple choice. In PD I used a graph from the multiple choice as a source and I got full marks :D

Same with me, in PDHPE i got 12/20 in multiple choice but in the other 2 sections i got 18/20 and 14/15

One of the questions in our science paper last year was "Name an Australian Scientist who has made a significant contribution to science research in the past 10 years?" or something And nearly everyone in our year wrote our teacher, it was funny at the time we all thought we were funny in the...

I was going to do a song in my speech but opted for a poem cause i found it hard to analyse how ideas were communicated because there wasnt many poetic techniques.

Mulitple choice is evil!! I hate it cause 1) some answers are more right than others but others are still right 2) kids who dont study can still do well in it and 3) I'm so bad at it its not funny. I hate it, they should get rid of it entirely in the HSC i think.

I wouldnt recommend it then, if your ranked there then I doubt you would be able to cope. If you start really putting in the work however everything is possible
