How long do u study leading up to HSC? (1 Viewer)

[Krypton]

Hey guys!

Lately I feel like I've been procrastinating heaps! But I end up doing at least 2 past papers a day!
So i was just wondering how long other HSC students are studying. Is abt 4 hours a day enough, considering that u already know a lot of shit from trials?

 

[seventhroot]

anything less than 25 hours/day is not good enough

 

[Swaan]

Depends how effective your studying is. 4 hours sounds like a good amount in my opinion!
As for me, I'm studying around 3-4 hours a day which started from Monday. Before that, I was studying 3-4 hours a term lol not good

4 hours should be fine if you did okay in trials...

 

[pheelx3]

less than 3 hours a day.
but then I'm a cunt and because I got good internal rankings I'm just waiting for my school to carry me now.

Not fucked to care anymore after UMAT results. Lol.

If you manage your time and don't procrastinate you can manage a surprising amount of study. I did 8 hours / day for the month before HSC and it was definitely not impossible.

I sit at my desk from morning till I sleep. I procrastinate 50+% of the time though. I'd say ~6 hours of solid work? ish

 

[iStudent]

Sitting at your desk all day is not necessarily a good thing..

And how many hours to do? However many you need to!

I can make an exception for hsc

2 past papers every day is great! just make sure to be equally prepared for each of your exams and be careful not to focus on only 1 thing..
Personally, I lock myself in my room all day every day and I end up studying a total of about an hour per fortnight - but I'm an idiot and have horrible internal marks so you probably shouldn't do that if you're aiming for a higher ATAR...! LOL

Are school ranks really that helpful?? Im in the same boat as you, I got top 2 in all my subjects then after trials I've done like less than 3 hours daily. Do the ranks really carry you that much? My estimate atar was 95.75, I need 90+

English is bullshitable, you can get 65+ without studying if you have a good vocab

 

[enigma_1]

I feel like I'm not even studying lol

Staring out the window and speaking to myself trying to remember English essays. Goes on for the whole day, so technically 2 hours of productive work lol

 

[Verify]

Very little - I'd say the work amounts to like 3 hours spread out throughout the day

Who studies for the HSC? Lol yolo
