Anyone else not have exams until next term?

No assessments till next term for me

 

[pikachu975]

Do you reckon you will end up counting your accelerated subjects?

Probably not, 2u doesn't count automatically and the other subjects scale higher than SOR but if SOR does count it'll just be 1 unit anyway. The study periods from doing SOR have been really helpful though.

Has anyone else registered to sit the LAT for UNSW law in September?

Nah, I'm on the UMAT road.

How do you show your ATAR Aim and your list of subjects in your posts?

You guys have a good opportunity to do it for both years, so take granted for it. A lot of people in year 11 wouldn't even know about it.

I have an exam in less than 4 hours. Did not study very effectively and consistently throughout the term, so this is my first time in my entire high school life that I am cramming the night and morning before an exam. I'll be happy to pull a solid 80, but i'll tell y'all how it goes

It just seems better to cram in Year 11 than 12, plus I just want to test my short-term memory. It's not like it's the prelims

 

[Frostguard]

Hey everyone!! Did you get your Prelim exam timetables?? Any double exams?? Thank god all my exams are spread out and I finish early too woo, how about you guys?

Prepare to cram for year 12! Had to do it heaps

 

[Itz_Gabi]

Yeah, we've gotten our exam timetables too! It's only over a week and a day so... that's gonna be fun. Luckily mine are fairly spread out and I've got an early finish too

Good luck with studying though! I'm still trying to find the best approach to all my subjects.

I'll be too scared to cram for Year 12. My subjects are heavily humanities based, and I see your subjects are more on the left-brain side?

I feel you can cram content heavy subjects however this is a risky technique (imo)

Get a bunch of notes, go through them, summarise the stuff on a sheet of paper (and teach yourself at the same time), keep doing it until you think you know everything and then do past papers

You can also do the "worksheet method" when it comes to memorising content but you would need to start early studying in order to do so

Every subject has a lot of content! Try managing your time well to study early because cramming doesn't work for everyone
