Does anyone have any tips for me as I've got 2 trial exams in one day? How do I study? I've got economics in the morning and studies of religion (1 unit) after with about an hour break in between. Both trials are worth 12.5% all up and my rankings are similar for each. Thanks

Have you never had two exams on the same day before? Damn!

I don't think there's any special approach though, just study normally and you should be alright.

What ... it`s your first time having 2 in one shot ?
Woah , wada lucky one.
I always have a double =__=" goddamnit.

Term 1: Chemistry & 4U Maths
Term 2: Agriculture & 4U Maths
Term 3: Chemistry & 3U Maths
Term 4: Agriculture & Ext English

Aww man. Always have doubles =__="
I prioritised and did one over the other. I tried studying for both , but that failed and resulted in me literally failing both exams on the day.

the point would be that you're meant to be prepared for your exams before your exam block. so it should be irrelevant that you have two exams on the same day.

ihave 6 exams in 5 days. you just have to be prepared.

Oh, I've got my English Paper 2 in the morning and SoR 1 in the arvo, but with about 2 hrs and 15 mins break in between. I think it's ok, my rankings good in religion (2nd, behind by like 1 mark) so hmm. I dunno, coz if u were better in one subject then obviously study the other one abit more. But hmm.. Maybe coz the weightings the same and ur ranking is the same, allocate similar amounts of time? Depends what works for you though... good luck!!

I have a business and bio double up (CSSA trials...).

Yes. I was freaking out at first...these are two HUGE subjects to study for, with heapppps of theory in both.

But the thing is, someone said this above, your meant to be prepared by the night before, the day of is actually just 'doing the exam'. I know..it seems better to have one a day, cause then the night before can be fully devoted to that subject..but the key is just to get the stuff done a bit earlier and the time you have inbetween exams (if any) should just be recalling everything.

What it said ^
If you've prepared properly it wont matter as much how your exams are spaced out. That being said, it's still a bitch to have two in one day or as pari has, 6 in 5 days (bit like my hsc timetable ;p).
