Study plans for the holidays? (1 Viewer)

[girlworld_club]

relax and go out brah!
and maybe study a day or two every week.

 

[axeltatelucas]

I will probably have a break through Christmas, and then when the new year starts I'll do some work. I will probably focus on English Adv. ext 1 and ext 2. Hope to have a few drafts done through the holidays, and get a solid essay and story done for advanced for belonging. Also maybe revise ancient and modern history. I probably won't go too hard though, because they are holidays for a reason

Going to Japan on exchange for the first 3 weeks, will be doing about 2 hours a night over there. When I come back, 5 hours.

English - Solid creative and essays prepared for half yearlies & Read 'Pride and Prejudice' and 'Letters to Alice'
Legal - Note all pertinent textbook sections - Crime, Human Rights, Family, World Order
Modern - Complete WW1 source notes, past papers & Begin Germany
Japanese - Consolidate vocab., grammar and kanji
Drama - Cement IP, beginning rehearsal & Complete Australian Drama and Theatre notes
Hist. Ext. - Ideally, complete the whole project, a bit ambitious, I know. Otherwise, first 2 focus questions completed in depth & Notes on 'What is history?' refined
Jap. Ext. - Notes on 'Spirited Away' and relevant grammar completed.

I understand it seems ambitious, but so is my ATAR aim.

I would recommend writing down a checklist somewhere.

excellent idea

 

[Sunners]

I intend to attend the TSFX lectures and I'm also going to see some therapist who can help me improve my writing. For different subjects, I'm going to be given holiday homework that I'll do slowly over the holidays (I've got 20 hours of eco), except English where I can just watch Blade Runner and read Frankenstein quickly. But predominately I'm going to take it easy over the holidays.

 

[DamTameNaken]

English: Paper 1 Practice papers, read Frankenstein and watch Blade Runner
Chemistry: Read through textbook + highlight things (I got through the first two modules last holidays so shouldn't be too ambitious)
Physics: Same as chem
Maths/MX1/MX2: Do lots of questions

I'll aim for an hour and a half a day average, with some days spent at the library for 5 or so hours while others I won't do anything.

[LoveHateSchool]

My Year 12 hols, I was away for two weeks and bludged quite a bit. Mainly just did my massive English assignment I think?

And I did no work in the winter holidays right before trials (overseas haha)

I have never personally experienced 'burn out'. How does the idea of studying hard every second day sound while relaxing hard (going out) on non-study days?

Could that still lead to burning out?

I think most people dont understand what is meant by the concept of "burning out". What most people have described in this thread is tiring yourself out to quickly because you have failed to pace yourself.

 

[Spiritual Being]

burning out is a myth

I never got burnt out despite studying excessively (at times)

or maybe its an individual thing

One does not understand burn out till one has experienced it. I experienced it towards end of HSC, but also in another aspect of life at a younger age.

No it's not laziness or tiring yourself out too quickly.
