Up til now I've been doing no study. So I figured that that since the half-yearlys are now behind me, I'm over halfway in most of my courses, and the HSC is only getting closer, that now is a good time to start to do some regular study. I figure that reading through my texts, taking notes, summarising etc sounds fair enough... but where do you suggest I start? At the start of the course? Where I'm at now? At the beginning of the topic I'm working on? Your thoughts appreciated.

Heres a start:

make notes for ALL the questions that you answered incorrectly in your half yearlys.

Vow: NEVER make the same mistake twice.

Oh, I just thought of a good method:

Post your syllabus(es/i ?) around your room and highlight the key points. That way, you know what to study and when.

I'd start from the beginning (as a refresher) then work your way through, also start with you're favourite subject or subject you are most interested in and work backwards, that way if you start stuff you like you're more likely to study. ;)

are you in that shock state of horror when you've realised everything is due so soon, you just don't know where the fuck to start so you totally freeze and find everything around you totally amusing?

that's where i am.

Well... believe it or not, i enjoy studying. I just feel like I'm not wasting my time... and that is a good feeling. But marks are a good motivation... because I know exactly what marks I need. See, I now know what uni course i want to get into, and I know what uai I need, and I know that to get that, i need to get good assessment and exam results, and to do that I need to study. I also need to improve my class rank -- it needs to be 1st. As I am 2nd - 5th, depending on subjects, that shouldn't be too hard... all i need to do is study. And as I 'enjoy' studying.... see, I've got it all worked out. Nah, not really. But the logic works...
