    Is it worth redoing units completed early?

    Based on previous years, that should be aligned to the mid-high 70s (depending on how hard the exam was), which will still scale very well for your ATAR. Since you're ranked so well in your other subjects, it would be better to focus on maintaining a high rank in those. (correct me if I'm...

    With the old format, other than a few stupid mistakes I'd be fine up to question 8 or 9, and struggle a bit from there.

    Trials vs Past Papers?

    Over the last few weeks I've done 14 past papers. Do you think it would be more useful to keep doing past papers over the weekend, or do some trial exams to get used to the new format?

    POLL: What order are you doing the belonging paper in?

    I'll normally just do S1, S2, S3. I find doing the short answer first is best when I've just read the sources (in the reading time), and I like to leave the essay til last so I know how much time I have to spend on it.
