Can anyone share how they studied for exams and their routine? I would really appreciate it because I have developed a bad habit of studying just a few days before any exam and it always bit me in the end.Just recently I did my RoSa and it was disastrous so I'm desperately seeking for tips to do the best in year 11 and 12. Thanks

So if your internal and external mark is perhaps 90, but your cohort averages a 70, approximately how much will your ATAR drop?

Agreed! I'm in the exact same situation.

Basically I crammed for trials and stuff due to lots of HW but for HSC I thought of what subjects needed most past papers (maths) and then decided to aim for 3 papers a day and allocated 3 subjects per day from that and tried my best to follow that schedule.

What happens if there is like a 5-6 mark difference in the internal ranks of 1st and 2nd, and 3rd was close to second, but everyone below that did had a big difference. But in the HSC 1st, 2nd and 3rd all were very close and there was a big difference in the others. Would 2nd and 3rd still be dragged down since in internal ranks there was a big difference.
