Then get back to work by actually doing something, rather than trying to garner sympathy on a random online forum.

y u mean, i was askin for tips to help me study

Start studying.

The hardest part for me was sitting down and actually starting. Its not supposed to be easy. So sit down and grind it out

 

[Aysce]

I agree with Aerath (not being mean). Do you want to fail? Do you want to be a miserable puddle of nothingness? I suppose not. As you said, this is the only chance you can catch up, so knuckle down and take that chance or I guarantee you that you will be feeling even worse when the half yearlies roll right in.

 

[zombies]

Don't ask on ways to motivate.. you just have to sit down, right now, and get started. Nothing else to it.

If you're 6 weeks behind, i would be extremely worried if I was you. You should be off the internet and start something pretty soon. You're competing against people in the state who are nearly finished some of the subjects by now. As Aerath said, no one can help you here and we will not give you sympathy. However, motivation is the most crucial thing and you will need alot of it throughout the HSC, motivation was the key driver for me throughout the HSC. Also it's never too late to start studying as maybe you have only wasted about 10-20% of your internal weighting,focus on your half yearlies soon which approaching. I started studying properly if not hardcore in term 2 of the HSC, although i did a bit of study throughout the year which kept me on track with my cohort.

Good luck

You have to find motivation yourself as it varies from person to person.

1. Have you organised ALL your notes etc from last term? If they are then you have done something - give yourself a pat on the back. If not do so - now you have achieved something and deserve a pat on the back.
2. Print out the dot point pages from the syllabi of your courses and tick off what you know - another small thing but again shows that you have done something.
3. Highlight the things that you should know but don't - the stuff your classes have covered - now you know what you have to do in the next month.
4. Set aside a set time each day to work on catching up and tick off each dot point you should know now but don't when you do know it and feel good as you tick off more and more.
5. When you finally catch up - take a day off and start getting ahead.

just set realistic goals for yourself. write down everything you need to do and cross them off as you go.

is there something in particular you want to study after school? getting into medicine is my motivation.

stop giving yourself excuses and get to it.

i don't what i want to be yet

 

[jnney]

why dont you do a little research and find out then?

we all need to know what we are working towards to become successful.

 

[Aysce]

br8, you don't need to know what you want to be. People don't even know when they're in the middle of uni, so just work and if you happen to get a good ATAR that will mean you have a wider range of choices to choose from. Based on your circumstance, thinking of what you're doing is going to waste your time. What your mind SHOULD be on is the work you're meant to catch up on.

I wasn't being mean. I was being honest.

 

[ReneeApple]

Just sit down and tell yourself you can study for 10 minutes. Doesn't seem like much, easy enough.

Once that 10 minutes is up you've already got momentum so it's easier to keep going.

 

[Aysce]

Does that work well? I might try it ^_^
