Look, you might think that Year 10 is a big deal, that if you don't pick the right subjects you won't get into uni or even that if you screw up you HSC that your life will be a failure. But just realise that its ok to do badly in Year 10 and make it a learning curb instead of putting stress on yourselves to receive a great mark in the School Certificate. Nobody cares if you do badly in Year 10 unless you are leaving school. So stop stressing!!! Go out and get a life which is not dictated by the marks you get at school, because at the end of the day if you have great scores in your HSC but no life- then your the loser.

yeh for freak sake if ur reading this consider urself lucky on having received that advice. srsly if u wanna get into stuff like medicine (aka wannabe a doctor) u need a record of extra curricular activities

holy shit if knew about that when i was in yr 10 i so wudve went and got a list of inane stuff i did that somehow wud reflect my ability and competence as a future doctor, thus guaranteeing financial immunity from society in general... whoops i said too much

in essence, get a good record of stuff u do while ur in yr 10
the stuff u do is easy! use ur spare time effectively cos when ur in yr 11 - 12 ull be hardpressed to find the time, and when u wanna get into high competition stuff like med, u cant cos u just realised u wasted yr 10 like i have.

do sports...just did tae kwon do, softball and swimming :) mah friends HATE sport so much that they forged notes every lesson.
do work experience...uhm what if yur school freaking don't offer any work experience. we're the first year who don't have it cause so many catholic schools in new south wales don't have enough insurance stuff 4 students 2 do it or something. (i really don't know exact reason)
i really REALLY wanted 2 do it this year (at the local pharmacy or law office) though but the school doesn't allow it ne more :(:(:(:(:(

year 11 and 12 are the scariest years EVER. i still piss my pants just thinking about it. you guys are gonna have to study sooo hard for the SC..

if you dont get 90+ in the SC, you're screwed in Year 11 and will have no clue whats going on..

the first term of year 11 you have to study (MINIMUM) 10 hours a day or you'll fail and end up in TAFE

im still traumatised over the whole experience.

oh and im doing my final exams now. the examiners are strict as. if you look to the side, you get a 0.. five people already got 0 for the english exams, and they have been crying all day
