[notthedevil]

Prelim: 7-8hrs
HSC (currently): 7-8hrs

This is including during assessment blocks as well.

 

[Queenroot]

Depends on the person but for me 7 hours

 

[integral95]

8-9 hrs on week day, 10 on weekends.

I personally don't condone all-nighters but to each to their own I guess.

 

[pikachu975]

Like 4 hrs every weekday during HSC (procrastination oppppp) but for weeks up to HSC like 9 hrs (except physics had to cram)

 

[Roy G Biv]

6 hours minimum weekdays, make up sleep on weekend (sleep debt - google it).

8 hours recommended every night.

imo.

Apparently everybody I know gets 4-6 hours of sleep.

I usually get 7 hours of sleep at home + 1-2 elsewhere.

nice, you must've managed time well

 

[Squar3root]

nice, you must've managed time well

not really tbh, i did at most 1-2hrs of work per day

HSC is just a game, you just need to get a decent ranking throughout the year and then cram in the final month before exams

They say 8 hours is good to retain all info but I know alot of people just sleep for 6/7 on school nights.
Alot go for 4-5 hours for the weeks leading up to exams, but always 8hrs+ during exams.

define function

I have done exams on < 4 hours sleep and done well in them, but now in uni I prefer to just sleep in if I can and get them solid 8 hours

 

[Helen Phan]

Isn't it normal if I spend 4-5 hours per day for sleeping?
Almost time i spend for reviewing and practicing exercises after coaching and school

 

[captainhelium]

I normally had on average around 6 hours of sleep per weekday during Year 12.

However, there has been the occasional anomaly where < 4 hours of sleep happened due to doing assignments or exam cramming sessions. I wouldn't really recommend these though.

optimal: 10-11

real: 8-8.5

I wish

 

[dontbeasavage]

7-8 hours is enough for a good sleep

 

[Helen Phan]

It happened to me that I didn't sleep all night at all just because I couldn't. An awful feeling indeed.

so sleep in daytimes though
