woah guys settle lol. A wise man once told me there are TEN whole weeks before the hsc where you learn nothing new and about SIXTEEN WEEKS of school and holidays BEFORE the ten weeks. THEN you will have to get your act together and that is plenty of time to review all your notes you have made AS YOU GO. Just dont stress too much guys just concentrate!!! TEN weeks of learning nothing. Thats a total of about 26 weeks so start now if u havnt already and u will be fine
um, no.....26 weeks is half a year.

you have your trials, usually wk 3/4 term 3. you have the rest of term 3 + holidays + 1 week back after holidays to study for your hsc

depending on when your trials are, and how long your holidays are, that's about 12weeks to study.

and as for the learning nothing new - many schools will still be learning new material after the trials :)

I just stay up real late, then take arvo naps when I need them. I don't actually do work often though.

its not too late, you'll really have to ace the externals though, you do high scaling subjects so you'll need all 80s at least but then those subjects are hard so it'll be difficult to get those 80s... In my opinion if you get all 80s in the externals then you'll get around 80s-90 UAI

MY tips are:

-Record your notes onto your mp3 player, epsecially for english with essays, listen to them all day while you do all your daily activities and especially before you fall asleep. Best shit ever! Helped me to remember all of my english essays almost word for word. but also plan out the structure or else you can get lost with all the words floating around in your head.

-And don't neglect the things you like doing, theres still lots of time for those things if you plan everything out properly.

-I also draw pictures of things to help me remember my notes hahaha
