You're like me. I can't do notes. I've compiled a massive list of qs for my subjects (Advanced Eng, Legal Studies, Business Studies, Ancient History, General Math) and I just answer them. It's more effective to actually be working on something rather than reading or writing notes. That's basically regurgitating the textbooks, which you'll find can't effectively happen in the HSC examinations.samuel slack said:When people say that they're doing 10 hours what does that include? Is it like hours of reading notes? Is it writing notes? Is it doing past papers?? This morning I did half a maths paper in an hour and a half, was sick of maths, then read english notes for an hour and a half. Then I just did another hour of business studies, reading notes getting someone to question me on them. I dont think I could sit there and read notes for 3 hours, it'd just bore me stupid. I don't know that it'd be effective study if i spent that many hours doing schoolwork, and it'd probably stress me out more than anything.
Lol thanks. Notes are just annoying, but I'm pretty proud that i actually finished mine, lol. Yeah my Ancient teacher compiled a list of all the questions that had been asked in past HSC exams for me. Best thing that anyone could have done. My English teacher did something similar. By the end of STUVAC i'll have done all of them. And i just noticed that I do all the same subjects as you, except 2u instead of general maths. Lol.original123 said:You're like me. I can't do notes.

(Point: Good study techniques =P)
USW, UTS, UNSW offer extra points but only for if you have done certain subjects. UTS only gives extra points to students who choose the courses listed for the scheme + the subject. I heard USYD is offering something similar but not too sure. Check the uni sites - they have all the infobento said:UNSW offers extra uai points? to who? I thought that was only UWS.
girls get extra points for doing engineering? lol that's crap - I know that UTS is offering an extra 6 points to anyone - f & m who chooses engineering.Kujah II said:^Never knew of that - I heard girls can get extra points if they decide to do some engineering course in uni?
You got unbanned earlier than me

UAI AIM = >65
Ahhh the number of times i've said that word...sayrah64 said:(hopefully)
That makes perfect sense, but i'd rather swap the 6 hours of non study with 10 hrs of study...oo its not looking too good for messejamafone said:lol. i don't see what's so bad about 10 hours of study... or maybe i'm wierd
coz, the way i see it:
sleep = 8 hours, which leaves 16 hours of non-sleep
then, study = 10 hours, which leaves 6 hours of non-study, which i find is quite adequate for eating, bathroom duties, and general lazing about...
or, as i said earlier, maybe i'm just wierd.. >_>"
