1st Week: Eng AoS, Eng Adv, Biz St, Modern
2nd Week: Maths
3rd Week: History Extension
4th Week: Eco

I mean c'mon!!!! That just plain sucks!

But in all honesty it shouldn't really matter - if you are learning stuff on the night before your HSC than you have seriousproblems!!!

You have minimum 8 weeks following trials (if u r doing independent trials they finish week 6 - 4 weeks of term + 4 weeks of stuvac; catholic timetable ppl get 2 weeks extra) to study for the HSC so having them on consecutive days, like I do, is a pain yes, but a complete catastrophe - no way.

Besides, if they are close together its all over sooner - isn't that a good thing!

It's more an endurance thing. I've just had 4 trial exams in the last 3 days (just like it will be in the HSC) ... i'm so brain-dead. :(

Plus with the two in a row thing - design and technology starts in the middle of the day, not even in the afternoon - after english 1. Why wouldn't they make design and technology start at like 1pm like all other subjects?

hmmmmmm

Everyone seems to be complaing about their timetable, but i love mine!! My exams are spaced out nicely AND the very last day of the hsc exams is on my 18th!! By the way, you're all invited to my mad eighteenth that night!! That's if u want to make the effort to come to the hole of the Universe called Tamworth.

Anyway, i finish on the 14th (religion 1), then i can go to the pub ILLEGALLY and then the next LEGALLY!!

Hmm... Maybe we shouldn't be so self-absorbed... _Most_ of us (there are a few considerate souls) are just posting our timetable and whining about how bad it is (me included).

Maybe. :D

Mine's alright really:

WEEK ONE:
mon: eng
wed: eng

WEEK TWO:
mon: maths
thur: biology
fri: ancient history

WEEK THREE:
-

WEEK FOUR:
fri: drama

The only real bitch of a thing is getting 2 whole weeks to study for drama...... which is THE last exam... the only last exam... everything is finished except for that...
and it's not even worth much! Of the external mark, it's only worth 40%!!

Can't really complain about my timetable...

Mon Wk 1 English
Wed Wk 1 English
Fri Wk 1 Mod. History
Mon Wk 2 Maths
Mon Wk 3 Eng Ext 1
Fri Wk 4 Society & Culture

I don't like having an exam on the very last day but I can't exactly change it...

My problem (well, if you could call it a problem) lies in the timetabling of my BIRTHDAY....I turn 18 on December 19th....that's four days AFTER I get back from schoolies and apparently is the day HSC results are released....for the sake of my own sanity (and so I can enjoy my birthday) I'm so not gonna be ringing up or going online to get my results that day....

I have to say, I have a pretty sweet timetable..

Week 1;
Mon - 2U Eng
Wed - 2U Eng

Week 2;
Mon - 2U Maths
Wed - 3U Maths + IT

Week 3;
Mon - 3U Eng

Nicely spread out, my easiest + hardest exams on the same day; which means I don't have to waste travel time going purely for an IT exam :)

Overall; very happy with it, finishing November 4th. :D

b) I finish on the second last fuckin' day.
Do I care really?
a) No.

Anton

Mon = english
wed = english
thurs = business, and hospitality
