OMG guys you're making me nervous!!!


Also I wanted to know if it is true that you only do your best 10 untis for the HSC???
yeh BOS only takes ur best 10 units. hence y ppl say its better to do more than the minimum incase you stuff up

i didnt screw up my pdh exam, but sports medicine part c really killed me. so glad that sports med wasnt a 2 part question, otherwise another 5 marks wouldve gone down the gurgler. and i was counting on a band 6 for pdh. i can only rely on my 94 internal and coming 1st

English- every single part of it
If I was not so relieved to never have to do Shakespeare and Blade Runner/ Frankenstein ever again I would have cried.

Otherwise I have had little stuff ups in other exams but nothing like English

Yeah, mate i fucked up every exam!

For English paper 1, i accidently wrote an essay instead of my story, i didnt know we needed to write a story!! And both my essays were half a page in length, and i wrote big!

For English Paper 2, i tried doing the options i havent done in class, = EPIC FAIL

So english pretty much max mark = 10/105 (Literally)

Physics = Guessed all but 1 question in multiple choice!
Tried doing Silicon opt or wateva instead astro cause it looked easier!, i bluffed all of them.
The rest was crap i wrote 10 seconds for all the calculations, which was pretty much the whole test.

Chemistry Was Amesome i reckon ill get 99/100 raw (Serious) SO EASYY!!!

Maths Ext 1 was crap, couldnt even get question 1 out, i think ill get 4/84

Maths Ext 2 Was shit, i couldnt get ANYTHING OUT (Literally), even integrations.
i think probably 2/120

I FAILED EVERY FUCKING EXAM!!

Area of Study: I did not have enough time to complete Section III.
English: I did not have enough time to complete Section II.
Maths: I had to guess more than half of the multiple choice questions as I ran out of time.
Studies of Religion: I sourced a quote from Exodus when it was really from Jeremiah 30 in Section III (this is more of a mistake that I could not believe I actually made rather than a major one), while I also did not have enough time to complete Section IV.
Physics: I did not have time to complete the last question of Medical Physics, while I also forgot to double the time I calculated in a projectile motion question (which was a step required to calculate the correct answer to that question).

With that said, the only subject I did not mess up in any way was IPT (which was also the only one I actually completed).

The only things I've slightly buggered due to time management are -

Belonging - Stimulus Response - Rushed the whole thing, got about 6 pages in however!

Legal Studies - Section II - Focus Study: Crime - I was cramming to get all my Shelter facts down, by the time I'd followed up with World Order I'd realised I'd forgotten to ask for a new booklet to complete Question D - worth 10 marks out of 25! Only got half of the question done, but I'm fairly confident that I studied hard and should do well enough to compensate for it. :)

Minor stuff ups across all exams, probably most prevalent in Maths and English. Otherwise every other exam i'm fairly confident about, hoping for positive marking.
