Not in the literal sense because albeit I acheived my aim, I didn't try very hard. Nonetheless, if I had tried hard throughout the year I would have achieved more than my aim.

These kids were family friends and their parents were gone overseas, hence we adopted them temporarily. =] Nevertheless, although I've grown up in a loud and social atmosphere, I was pretty ticked off during the HSC due to the noise. Closing my door and windows wasn't enough for me. But at least I achieved my goal, despite the amalgamation of noise and racket. =]

Re: Survey about HSC..Plz help and fill it out. For my IRP- it will take like 5 minut

Hey,
I did the IRP last year and know how long and stressful it can be.
I think your question and survey is good but I would like to offer a tiny bit of advice.
Considering CAFS revolves around WELL BEING I think it would be a good idea to involve it in your question. This was stressed to me last year when I did mine and I found that the ones including well being were to gain the best marks.
My advice is to alter your question so it reads;

"What is the effect of having a job during the HSC on an individuals well being?"

That way the ENTIRE IRP will work really well and all make sense with the syllabus requirements.

Okay, now I'll get going with the survey!


1.Gender: Female.


Age: 18.

2.Are you currently studying for the HSC (Year 11 or 12)?
No, I just completed it in November 2009.

3.What are/were/would be your aims in the HSC?
To do the best I could and gain sufficient marks for university entry.

4.Do you have a part-time, casual or no job?
No.

5.If part-time or casual- why?


If not- why?
I did in year 11 but due to it taking too much of my time left it.

6.In what area/industry is or would your job be in whilst studying for the HSC?
¨Retail
¨Food
¨Administrative
¨Mechanical
¨Community, sport and leisure
¨Other:


7.How often do you study per week (Monday-Sunday)?
¨0-3 hours
*3-8 hours
¨8-12 hours
¨12-15 hours
¨15-18 hours
¨Other:

8.Do you feel this amount of time spent studying is adequate? Why?
I do. You have to have some time to relax and I waste too much time because I can not be bothered studying!

9.On a scale of 1 to 10 (1 being extremely stressed and unprepared, 10 being prepared and confident): How are you feeling when exam/test time comes up?
8. I am stressed, but I don't believe unprepared.

10.Do you feel your previous answer is because: (tick which are appropriate to you)
¨Work is taking up too much of your study time
xYou couldn’t be bothered studying
¨Too tired
¨Your study arrangements are fine
¨Other:

11.Tick which are appropriate to you:
¨You don’t get enough sleep
¨You get enough sleep
xAre often stressed
¨Rarely get stressed
¨Do many leisure/sport activities
¨Do few or no leisure/sport activities
¨You save your money
¨You spend your money
¨Hang out with friends heaps
¨Don’t hang out with friends much

I hope that helps!

Re: Survey about HSC..Plz help and fill it out. For my IRP- it will take like 5 minut

Thanks laila2010. I was kinda thinking the same thing but when we were given the IRP we had a sub teacher for a few weeks. She asked us to draft our question and hand them to her. I originally had 'effects on the wellbeing' in my question but she said not to include it as it would be too broad. But then reading what you've said, i think i might change my question to the one you suggested. So thankyou very much.

2.Are you currently studying for the HSC (Year 11 or 12)? Year 12

3.What are/were/would be your aims in the HSC? Achieve my best by proving to myself my work ethic works and achieve an atar which places me into my course

4.Do you have a part-time, casual or no job? Casual

5.If part-time or casual- why? Less Shifts + Higher Pay

6.In what area/industry is or would your job be in whilst studying for the HSC?
¨Retail
¨Food (although I kinda wish it wasn't, it is physically demanding in fast food)
¨Administrative
¨Mechanical
¨Community, sport and leisure
¨Other:

7.How often do you study per week (Monday-Sunday)? It depends what you define as study. I'm not really sure of my 'revision' time, so I will state the amount of time spent on doing work of an afternoon/evening.
¨0-3 hours
¨3-8 hours
¨8-12 hours
¨12-15 hours
¨15-18 hours
¨Other: 20-25 hours

8.Do you feel this amount of time spent studying is adequate? Why? Yes, It satisfies the school's expectations of 3 hours p/night and I feel that I am completing work at a very good rate.

9.On a scale of 1 to 10 (1 being extremely stressed and unprepared, 10 being prepared and confident): How are you feeling when exam/test time comes up? 8-9

10.Do you feel your previous answer is because: (tick which are appropriate to you)
¨Work is taking up too much of your study time (this is currently due to holidays, but usually no)
¨You couldn’t be bothered studying
¨Too tired
¨Your study arrangements are fine
¨Other:

11.Tick which are appropriate to you:
¨You don’t get enough sleep|> Both of these apply, depends on the night
¨You get enough sleep |>
¨Are often stressed
¨Rarely get stressed
¨Do many leisure/sport activities
¨Do few or no leisure/sport activities
¨You save your money |> Both apply, again
¨You spend your money|>
¨Hang out with friends heaps
¨Don’t hang out with friends much

Okay, I guess I can help with the question you posed: "What are the effects of having a casual/part-time job whilst studying for the HSC?”

To help, apart from the survey... I would say that in my position my job during the holidays was affecting how much work I was getting done because of the flooding amount of shifts being given to me (but the money was excellent) - I hope this does not impact on me, however I doubt it will. Usually I receive my desired and arranged with managers, 1 shift p/w on the weekend (or 2 if there is a cancellation on the weekend). This one weekend shift does not impact on the amount of work I get done at all... rather I find it gives me time to get away from the place in which all the work happens (my house/room) and earn money at the same time.

However, this is my own (and possibly unique + lucky) position. My friends on the other hand whom do not wish to achieve as highly as I do are working either casual or part-time and do not have any restrictions on their shifts. Often they will work 3-4 p/w on any days (although I believe my manager(s) try to place these guys near the weekend). The shifts do impact on their HSC work. Some days they will come to school the next day and they havn't got any homework completed, no notes, some days they have a little done... they are forced to use any free/study periods they have to catch up rather than doing work they get that day or using it to study.

I hope this helps.

No problem
I don't see why she considers it too broad it is actually more precise then you could directly say the effects on the teenagers physical, social well being etc. rather then making broad statements.

Good luck =)

9
10.Do you feel your previous answer is because: (tick which are appropriate to you)
¨Work is taking up too much of your study time
¨You couldn’t be bothered studying
¨Too tired
¨Your study arrangements are fine
¨Other:

11.Tick which are appropriate to you:
¨You don’t get enough sleep
¨You get enough sleep
¨Rarely get stressed
¨Do many leisure/sport activities
¨Do few or no leisure/sport activities
¨You save your money
¨You spend your money
¨Hang out with friends heaps
¨Don’t hang out with friends much

P.S I really don't think that anyone should be working while doing their HSC. All of my friends who did have part time or casual jobs received much lower UAI's as a consequence of not being able to devote enough time to their studies because they were working. Everyone should just handle one thing at a time. Still, people should have breaks and relax, otherwise you will just go into overdrive and nothing you learn will stay in your head.
Goodluck with your HSC
