Have a look at the past papers on the real BOS website. It should give you an idea of how "hard" it is in your own perspective :)

any more help and suggestions possibly?
Simple common sense

1- Go to all your classes, don't ditch.
2- Listen in those classes, take notes.
3- (this is only for the super dedicated) Go over those notes when you get home from school.
4- Don't leave assessments to the last minute.
5- Get plenty of sleep.
6- When it comes to exams, go over those notes again with a little more care.
7- Do a past paper for each subject.

Simple common sense

1- Go to all your classes, don't ditch, been sick isnt an excuse
2- Listen in those classes, take notes, and ask for special lessons before/after school and at lunch time
3- Quit your job, sport and music lessons, and dump your friends you dont have tiem for them, youll need to study at least 6 hours a night
4- Bribe the teachers into giving you all the assignments at the start of the year.
5- Study all night ever night, sleep can be replaced by red bull and v
6- When it comes to exams, slip a $50 into the exam paper when you are done.
7- Do 100 past papers for each subject.
yup

come on guys don't lie to the guy.
dude, its a standardised test, as long as you pay attention to whats going on you'll be sweet, its definetly not a big deal unless your leaving school at the end of year 10.

Not everyone can do fuck all study and get away with it, people should figure out their own capabilities and tailor their approach to exams accordingly.

hello there :)

well if you wanna do reasonably well in it, i suggest you do all your homework and keep up to date with the course work throughout the year.

nearing the sc, i suggest doing past papers. if you wanna ace it, do past papers like second nature.

just keep in the mind that the whole state has to do it... so they can't set tests that are unbelieveably hard.

what i'm trying to say is even if you have half a brain you'll still probably get an alright band (5/6). so don't stress too much ;)


good luck !

Just pay attention and make sure you know what the teacher is talking about. Summarise according to the syllabus + do past paper from a few years ago.

Its only year 10, but I get that you want to do well.

Good luck :)
