[M-THIS]

Hello Girls and Boys!

So, to get a good UAI, of mid 90s' how hard do i need to be working??

 

[Rahul]

as hard as u can M

 

[M-THIS]

LOTS OF PPL VIEWING, NOT MANY SPEAKING!!

you are all welcomed! Pretty crap tread but!
Who started it?

SO how hard!

TO THOSE WHO GOT 93+ LAST YEAR... HOW HARD DID YOU WORK? like in the holidays, be4 the trials etc.

 

[Roors]

You no wat M...im in the same situation where u are!
And i asked ppl that went alrite how much i should be studying, on average per day of these holidays, well...some said six (i laughed)
but then someone realistically said...do about 4 hours a day, but take off one day of full on relaxing per week. And they made it sound so easy.....wake up at 9, study till 12. Then in the rest of the day study another hour or even more if u can!
Sounds easy...lets see how we cope!!
Goodluk though

 

[Roors]

yes, i agree....but i mean 3-4 hours of understanding and grasping the work. this could take 6 hours, but i personally fink dats wat u need!

 

[Newbie]

well im having exams this week
and i do nothing normally
then cram it up the weekend before
hoho

 

[M-THIS]

yeah roors... whats the go! everyone is saying something new!

what is your aim... what subjects?!?!?!

 

[-=«MÄLÅÇhïtÊ»=-]

imo mid 90s isnt very hard
prolly juz do ur homework, know wats happening and cram b4 exams

depends on ur own abilities

 

[Newbie]

lol
but we cant say that
probably jinx ourselves

 

[Minai]

If u want a UAI of 95, after trials, u should be studying/cramming 10 hours a day for approx. 5 weeks
that was my method

 

[M-THIS]

Really... nice one?

Should you CRAM heaps or do heaps of pratice Q/papers.

Also, with the timetable for the HSC, i got like 9 days before my last exam, Economics. What strategy should i employ?

is 9 days enough to start fresh to study for eco?

make sure u study eco beforehand, and then leave it till the start of your 9 days
it makes it much easier
I studied it a lot in the period between trials and the HSC, wrote a syllabus summary and practice essays.
and in the 6 days I had between Physics and Economics last yr, I jus spent everyday memorising different essays

 

[M-THIS]

cause yeah you can study all the info and confident you know it!

then what? do pratice exams right?

That's my Uni method.

 

[M-THIS]

does it take that much work, just to pass in UNI? or you going for distinctions and that?

can you bludge and get the passes in the subjects?

 

[-=«MÄLÅÇhïtÊ»=-]

cmon m-this, u gotta aim higher than juz passing

if not for personal pride, for ur employment prospects

 

[flyin']

Since, I'm going to fall just short of whatever I'm aiming for ... I might as well aim a little higher. Cos if I'm just aiming to pass, then I'll probably fail.

Malachite's right on!

 

[M-THIS]

you may need to calibrate your scope then...some call me the sniper! haha...
