Comeback? (1 Viewer)

[svad]

Hey,
I've been slowly getting my prelim marks back, and they're horrible (considering I didn't study well for anything but english ). By 'horribly', I mean receiving no band 6's, just passing, expecting a higher mark but receiving significantly less, etc. If I preformed like this for my HSC I very well know my ATAR will NOT be above 60

Is it possible to bounce back? I know some people may say 'as long as you're interested' or 'anything is possible' etc. Im not saying they're wrong, but I wanna know if anyone was actually able to get a 90+ ATAR after performing just as horribly in prelims.

The answer to these type of questions will always be yes. I know it may seem hard to believe but you 1000% can get a 90+ ATAR since your year 11 marks don't count towards your ATAR. Regardless a 90+ ATAR requires a lot of effort, so yes you do have to put in a lot of work from now on and learn from your year 11 mistakes. Good luck with year 12!

yea. back in year 11 i was fucking awful at time management and was turning in a lot of assignments half done or half assed. i didnt study up until the last 2 weeks of prelims.

those shitty prelim marks kinda hit me so i ended up rethinking stuff in holidays and really getting into studying. i got into the routine of studying 5 hours a day (5 hours is pretty excess and i only do it bcuz i have slow processing) and started doing really well.

you can bounce back, IF you start changing things up significantly.

start writing your notes. dont just copy ur textbook or what ur teacher says, re word it, that way you have to actually understand the concept. hand writing also helps a lot

get into a routine, everyday after school study/do assignments for 3 hours, same time every day.

ask for feedback from ur teachers.

very possible, focus on your 10 best units and lock in for year 12 and a 90 atar is very achievable I failed most of my prelims and I'm doing fairly well rn
