Finished last exam today :-D

Also, rethinking my plans for year 12 as far as subjects goes, I'll definitely have a think about that over the holidays.

example of efficient time management? :p
Keep the time you take to eat, shit, sleep and other mundane activities to a minimum. Go hardcore on the weekdays and take weekends off.
Here's an example of a typical weekday. Colour Coded for your convenience.

0700: Wake Up.
0700-0730: Breakfast, Wash etc.
0730-1000: Study (Subject 1 - 2hours30minutes)
1000-1030: Break (30 minutes BREAK)
1030-1300: Study (Subject 2 - 2hours30minutes)
1300-1400: Break. Lunch, shit, shower etc. (1hour BREAK)
1400-1600: Study (Subject 3 - 2hours0minutes)
1600-1700: Break (1hour BREAK)
1700-1900: Study (Subject 4 - 2hours0minutes)
1900-2030: Meet the family, Dinner etc. (1hour30minutes BREAK)
2030-2230: Study (Subject 5 - 2hours0minutes)
2230-2300: Break (30 minutes BREAK)
2300: Lights OUT

So...that's 11 hours of study, and 4hours 30 minutes break time. And you can get 8 hours of sleep every single day. And weekends completely off. Does that sound too difficult? Do whatever you want in the break time. Gym, Facebook, PS3 w/e.

11(hours)*5(weekdays)*6(weeks)=330 hours of study you can get done in the summer break.

Remember you have weekends off. It may seem somewhat intense, but it will save a lot of stress, worrying and study in the HSC year. While your mates are all freaking out over the exams, you'll be doing whatever the fcuk you want in the weeks leading up to it. Make sure you skim over your notes before each exam.

I wish I'd followed that pattern in my summer break.

Well I'm sitting in the bottom 50, and my aim is the top 50, so basically I'm planning to move from an expected 90 to just under 99.
I haven't really done any work/study this year though, so I don't think it should be too hard.

I thought you were trolling at first but that doesn't actually sound too horrible... too bad I'm on exchange for the summer.

That plan looks amazing! Do you suggest us to do one subject a day on a normal school day (the 2hr block)? Thanks :)

Btw that timetable looks good... may try it :)

Would you need to study from the syllabus? And you would need text books wouldn't you?

I've been stalking you since this month and I noticed you have had the human urges to post.

I'm quite honoured, I didn't know anyone realised that I exist on this forum with my measly 80ish posts. I'm not gonna lie, I've stalked you a bit as well and I noticed that you like to talk about humans. And eating them.

I've tried but it never seems to work for me because my brother is always up doing God knows what until about 12-1ish and he makes so much noise OMG RAGE ^$^$%&$&#^*!!!!!
