It's a bloody crap timetable. Somehow, I hope they adjust it because of complaints. I reckon this year's legal students won't do as well as last yr's because it's right after English. Heaps of things to remember for both. >_<

what do u guys think of it?
I don't do legal or SOR but i really feel for u joe... and evryone else in a similar boat...

But from what i'm seeing... this timetable has been done in a way where students are encouraged to study everything in STUVAC and not rely on the break between exams for last minute revision...

last year i think i would've had 4 days free before my physics exam... this year i only have 1...

for some reaosn there's a big gap between the english exams... I think they want people to actually focus more on english... most people i know go excellent in all their subjects and then have a shocking english mark... so I don't know i think it's all part of the plan... A girl at my school in 2004 had all her marks above 80 except english extension 1 where she got 29/50... and another guy had all marks 75+ and recieved 30/50 for E.E.1... people from varying schools have had the same trend... many reciev all 90+ and then have an E.E.1 mark in the 60's as a percentage...

But guys hang in there...

as for people that have an exam on the last day... well i mean u still finish over 1 month before evryone esle at ur school, of course excluding ur other HSC mates...

as for people who finish in 1-2 weeks i think ur lucky that way u will not rely on the examination gaps for the extra rveison or study... and u'll be prepared for all ur exams by the end of STUVAC... at least u should be... and so should everyone else...

well good luck to everyone... oh yeh and one more thing... it seems that alot of people who do legal also do SOR... could they be using our year as LAB RATS?

Awww, poor babies!

My exams are lovely and spaced, from the first one on the first morning of the first day; to the last one on the last afternoon of the last day.

And as for the English paper 2/legal thing...English doesn't count squat for me =P...have fun with Shakespeare...suckers.

I'm happy with the legal one being earlier, except its annoying that its right after english. I have a break for one week then ext english, chem and physics all really close.
It could have been worse

I know i'm in no posission to be complaining and i'm not really... but i agree about extension english, chem and phys all being close... i would prefer chem to be swaped with english X 1.. but oh well.. it doesn't really matter...

i mean what's the one day gap for anyway... i'd probably try cram, and forget everythng in that time period... so i'd rather have them all after each other...
