maths extension 1 because I still need to learn one topic from scratch and fix up another one I'm failing miserably in. It may count (since one of my exams is 100% worth external) but really, is all the stress worth it? I'd prioritise mental health over marks any day idk, now that I look at the...

is it too late to drop a subject rn? If we realise halfway through the holidays that we want to drop something do we have to end up doing it anyways just coz no more school?

I'm not the most experienced person (hsc this year hue hue) but I have done a bit of accounting. It can be a bit dry at times, but I like using the skills needed for it. I also find it very logical. As I was applying for cadetships, this was a question I threw at one of my interviewers and I...

#feels same here trials, more like cry-als I haven't got results back for majority of my subs. hope I didn't shit up too badly but I literally crammed 1 unit per day ffs

I use the 4 paragraph structure for my essays (only ever written one discovery essay in my lyf though mwhahaha :haha:), but first two paragraphs = same idea. Shove in as many rubric points into the overriding thesis covering this idea. Some rubric points logically lead to one another, e.g. some...

I haven't handed in anything since term 2 (year 12) and I'm doing fine :))) Dw children, handing in stuff is just so you can get feedback, if you feel like you somewhat have the skill/ability to write something semi decent then just work at your own pace I write practice essays at like 2am...

I'm usually the sleep 8-9 hours type of person because I'm too lazy to study a lot of the time, but lately I've been pulling my shit together. I got around 6-7 hours before my eco exam and despite being tired i made it through the exam on adrenaline and i'm pretty happy with it. I'm probably...

Yup I have my hands on a few trial papers, basically I'm skimming through the questions and if it relates to my "im fucked for this" or "i need to revise this" list then I do it. The whole handwriting muscle memory thing works better for me. I have the operations syllabus memorised and bits and...

good luck1 dw too much about it, you still have a chance to smash externals (my only hope as well)

Same here. From assessments 1-3 maths ext for me was outscaling business but after the maths ext trial I'm not so sure anymore :lol: I've yet to do my business trial but pretty unprepared for that hehehahahah *dies* At this rate I have no idea what's going to count. Actual question: how much...

Nah being optimistic is good man, depends on your ranks I suppose. Are you acing your subjects/getting top ranks at your school? Me personally, I had a lot of really sudden and unexpected things pop up this year, and this affected my ability to study sometimes. It really depends on your personal...

Re: How NOT to pick HSC Subjects Although I do relatively agree with what you brought up, I do have a point to make. While business studies is "easier" and lends itself to rote learning, this means that everyone has the capacity to do well, and in a very competitive environment, one little...

Good to know I'm not the only one :haha: I'm epic-ally failing this cram maths ext thing

*just a 97* that's so high even if I go to a good school I'm pretty average and smack bam in the middle :lol: Study hard (it's achievable), good luck for stuff! (exams, and any other applications i guess?)

when you crash and sleep before trials even end :/

I definitely underestimated it in the early stages of the process but i realised that I wanted the opportunity since my desired degree is single commerce anyways so I just kept applying despite the odds. Dw too much since you're interested in comm/law anyways. Believe it or not, you'll come...

I do this subconsciously :3 one sentence to sum up the whole essay and if i have time, one sentence tying back to the question and providing a deeper insight

Be patient. And even if they don't want you, you're probably not suited for them and can find a x100 better job somewhere else. Just saw your post. I can't really go back and change what I did, I can only learn better for the future. Would they actually be willing to wait? like even 2 months...

so jealous of everyone who's done but wow assessments AFTER trials?? Trials will be the last internal ones for me

I do go beforehand, I think I just have issues :/ luckily i can finish most papers early, and can just take a quick breath of fresh air before reattempting the bitchy questions Supervisors follow us to the toilets, and if we take more than a few mins they start getting sus tbh I'm too lazy to cheat
