My advice for English:

You should now know the structure and main points (to expand on) for your essay
You should have at least 2 quotes per essay.
You should have the historical context, setting and writer's name.

Don't fall for that trap where 3 essays are undone in 2 hours. (I hope no one has)
Keep your eye on the clock.
Read the question and answer it by at least rewording the question in the intro.
Reading time should be used to figure out how to answer the question.
Don't pressure yourself TOO much when writing. Your hand needs to survive the 2 hours.

I had ext eng today and chemistry. eng ext was okay, but chemistry was the most diffiuclt paper I have ever done. I almost gave up half way through. I could basically only answer half the questions.

There goes my rank......*le sigh*

N/A
- english adv. AOS: good'ish
-economics: good
-SOR: satsifactory
- modern: satisfactory
- english adv modules: flunked. in a verty literal sense
- maths: less than satisfactory
-english ext: alrightish


overall: not that disasterous with the exception of english modules. UAI prediction will fall though. predicting it'll fall by a good 4 marks or so....

Just had Chemistry. Went ok-ish, but considering the amout I studied (8 prac papers and like 2 weeks) it wasn't as easy as I was hoping, but we'll see.

General Maths and Modules tomorrow. Moderatly prepared for both but needs more work. BUT I'M JUST SO TIRED!

Any tips?

No I doubt that you would flop. If you found the trials hard, what are the odds everyone found it hard? What are the odds that every student in the state would find it hard?

Not 'hard' - was just unprepared. ridiculously so.
