working too hard (1 Viewer)

[IceOnFire]

reading, writing and reviewing notes,
completing practice questions
past papers - possibly the best way to study

Current method of studying: ASSESSMENTS.

5 hours study a night from 4pm onwards isn't that bad. Solid mind set is what you all need.

 

[^CoSMic DoRiS^^]

make sure you study according to the subjects you do, too - you don't necessarily have to allocate equal amounts of time to each subject because some will require different amounts/types of study. E.g. if you're doing 4u maths unless you're freakishly intelligent i would assume that a lot of your study time will go into that above other subjects.

im planning to do 2 hours of study a night next term, will increase it to 3-4hrs when assessments are close

^^ well i think it varies greatly depending on the requirements of each individual.

one of my friends chucks in several all nighters per week, and she feels she needs that.

i only do that occasionally, and i normally manage to get by without it

i always used others better than me to motivate me.
in year 12 i looked at the ppl ahead of me and aimed to beat them no matter what. and then if u end up being rank 1, just aim to keep it up

No such thing as working "too hard" in your HSC unless you have a goal, such as 70 UAI, and am getting 90%+ results in your exams/assessments (generally, which in this case is working "too hard"). I'm assuming most of us here are aiming for 90+ and for that to occur, you got to work your @$$ off! I regret not working as hard as I should've/could've and now I'm paying the price - I don' t know whether I'll get 88+ UAI. But that's all my fault, no regrets, I had some awesome times this year and still pwned some exams. Twas fun.

Anyways, motivation is key for success in the HSC.

If any 07's would like some advice about the HSC or any of these subjects I'd be glad to help:

2u/3u math
eco
business
software design
adv eng (can't really give advice on this - I, and my school in general - suck at english)

I'm not some special kid or anything, but I've gotten a lot of 100%'s or close to in exams/assessments for all my subs (except english) when I really tried for them (yeah yeah I've heard people say this cr@p before about "trying" and all that but meh, make your own judgements I don't mind). So yeah, just PM if you want.

Just remember, stay motivated!
