MY NEIGHBOURS ARE LAUGHING LIKE HYENAS. I can't study like this D:<

Good work using language techniques

 

[turntaker]

it's just some aren't bothered because it is time consuming and boring lol

Sounds like me

 

[rawrliongirl]

Just had my english task.... it was word vomit and made no sense. ;-; goodbye to my dreams of attending UNSW.

 

[enigma_1]

Haha how's it going to pull down your ATAR?

Also to any past HSC'ers what mark for business should I aim for to ensure that my ATAR doesn't suffer?

93+ hsc mark

Trust me as long as you can bs, you'll get the marks. I don't remember spending any more than 20 hours on business revision in year 12 tbh

 

[astroman]

dw, you'll probs surprise yourself coz ur bs may have been gud stuff

besides, English is unpredictable lol

agree, depends on marker too

barring my half yearly exam, I've only been getting ~80% in assessments hence my average mark is lowish. My marks for other subjects are better + obvs better scaling, having a better equivalent atar thingo (like all my subjects are equivalent 95-96 atar and then business is like 91 lol) like I can't do the rote the fuck out of a subject thing

I only have 11 units as well so trolololololol said goodbye to my 97 dream

Haha thanks

Yeah I'm hoping my beast mode kicks in prior to trials (This will be my first opportunity to study for more than a week in advance for an exam so I'm interested to see how things will play out)

 

[Crisium]

Hey guys,

I have a dilemma. I have two more assessments this week and then I'm done till trials. 2u maths test is in two days (lol, gg) and Modern history, which is a 2000 word hand in essay, is due this friday. I was gonna balance them out in terms of time allocation, but I realised I need to do more past paper Q's for maths despite doing a considerable amount prior. Plus I want to improve my rank lol. At the same time, I'm not sure if delaying Modern is the best idea, but I already wrote up my intro and my thematic points to argue so I do know what I will write, somewhat.

As such, should I focus on maths till Wednesday and then do Modern afterwards? Or should I try to balance them out haha?

Mhhm

I'd say leave Modern until after 2 unit if you know where you're going with it (i.e. If you've collated all the information you've needed and have your essay planned out)

Oh yes.

We can do this, Oxford only takes 10 people per year for med, so we have got a good chance here!
