hi, so there's about 13 days left to the SC, and im really scared! like my gut is seriously wrenching atm!

I'm wondering what schedule/study guide should i stick to to get a band 6 in each subject, and what studies i should mainly focus on, how i should study for them and what resources i should be accessing to use them to boost my full potential.

Also im wondering does the SC have scaling in it? or is that only the HSC?

thanks heaps guys! :)

LOL.

Well i don't think my advice will help you, but i did get all band 6s. Do not worry at all - the exam is a cinch. Just listen to your friends shout out random info before the exam. This was my "study strategy" which included not studying at all and if you're like me and have good memory, you will be fine.

If you are really that worried, just flip through your exercise book. For maths, if you're doing 5.3 don't even bother because the test is on 5.1

maths is a joke in the sc. as for the other subjects, flick through pages a bit.
dont worry. when u get to year 11, u will realise that the sc is nothing.

everyone had been telling me the same thing, but i cant just do nothing and go and sit for school centificate, which i personally think it is the most important exam in the stage 4 and 5.

Could you tell me what 5.1 is? o____O

I just wanna know what questions I should do in my textbook.
You know the 3 levels of yr 10 maths they teach you? The hardest is 5.3, then 5.2 and the lowest is 5.1

So if you do 5.2 or 5.3 then you'll ace the exam, 5.1 might want to study up a tiny bit.

u dont need to study as long as you've paid attention and dont your homework thoughout the year you are fine. If you must study its not at all different to how you've studied all year for your exams make notes etc and thats it.

Sc does not have scaling......=.=
even if you get 100% for all subjects, no one will know about it.

HSC is different, the whole world is soooo concern about it. School ranks, child prodigies, 1st in state etc. all splattered around the tabloids.

IN SC?
No one knows...-.-
Ahaha, that's because the SC is a joke so no one cares XD

I was accelerated and did Year 10 Maths in Year 9. I never had a Year 10 textbook so I really don't know what these 3 levels are...

I'm not exactly really stressed about Maths, I just wanna do some questions in this Excel Year 10 maths workbook as practice, I bought it in Year 9 and completely forgot about it, but I dont wanna waste it by not doing it at all ._.

Do the multiple choice online. Print out only the short answer + extended responses (saves so much paper it's not funny and you can do multiple choice online) of past papers AFTER 2006 (syllabus change).
Study 2 hrs each night on SC, I usually do this listening to my favourite radio show. I'm only studying for History and Geo because they're the only ones that are really content based, everything else is like skill.

I'm not a super genius like you. Even if I do study and follow a schedule. I won't even make a band 5. :mad1:

If you've been accelerated, you probably did 5.3 maths :)

Any of these topics sound familiar - Drawing linear graphs (straight lines), superannuation, depreciation, surface area/volume of shapes, similar and congruent triangles? If so, you probably did 5.3 maths.

Hehehe, its a workbook, one that you write in. I doubt the librarians would shelve books that had the be written in, they'd probably have a heart attack.
"Oh my goodness! This child has defaced this poor book!! *mumble* when I was a child we treated books with respect blah, blah blah."

Well thats how I picture it would go down with my librarian.

not only is it easy, but it won't even be in the test, because it's 5.3. LOL.

...

yeah...

to the OP: look through some past papers. you'll get a good sense of the questions they can ask you and the difficulty of the tests. if you really want to do more, just look through your notes a few days or a week before the exam. depending on your 'natural ability' you can potentially band 6 it without doing anything / very little. Study a bit every day from now and you really can't go wrong.
