With 4 humanities subjects and english my wrists were toast after the trials. But I was pretty lucky in terms of scheduling - my exams were pretty well spread over the two week trial period. To me the trials felt more hectic because everything was so condensed, whereas there was more time with the final exams.

Back in the days I had 6 trial exams over 5 days, and 1 in the following week. Stop complaining and toughen up.

Thankfully I didn't get any double-ups for my time table. I've got:
Mon: Eng paper 1
Tue: Eng paper 2
Wed: Bio
Thu: SOR
Fri: Chem
Mon: Maths 2U
Tue: Physics
...then a break with 3U on Fri. Not the worst. HSC timetable is way better :)
Good luck everyone!

I have 6 exams in 4 days, one on monday, two on tuesday, two on wednesday and one on thursday. I only do 5 subjects. But it is always like this for me, last time I had 5 exams in 3 days. It sucks! I guess I have a week of break, but i will be studying then anyways!

So you can tell a humanities teacher decided my schools timetable, somehow they decided it would be a good idea to put Physics in the morning and chemistry in the afternoon..

Edit: Mind you, a draft version had both English papers on the same day, so that wasn't a smart move either... Thankfully both double days have been changed :)

In China they finish the exam in 2 days can you imagine that?
Yeah, know that. Also, the exam is so hard such that practice can really only get you up to a certain mark, the rest is all intelligence based.

Exactly
I found that I'll never be as good as those people who are born smart
They can learn things so easily and get high mark
While I have to learn it for much longer time and get an OK mark
It's just intelligence based I strongly agree with ya

Speaking of that, I don't know how the fuck my dad managed to get 620/700 for the 高考, and same deal with my cousin, who is a professor in accounting, obtaining 680/700 :/

my goodness, my dad and my cousin are so much smarter than me :/

This brings back bad memories - I had all seven of my exams over five consecutive days. I slept about 7 hours that entire week, it was one of the most draining experiences of my life.
