Cambridge + past papers + consistent practice = improved marks. Don't be too harsh on yourself. Oddly enough, people have weird learning curves. Generally, it takes us more time than anticipated to get slightly better, but as soon as we get slightly better, we get a lot better. Sometimes, it...

A non stick pan.

So, who's taking one for the team?

Here's a weird one. Memorise how many sentences are in each paragraph, as well as what word each sentence starts with. This will jot your memory like no other technique.

Protip: aim not to cross out whatever you've already written. As a guess, though, I'd say they'd start penalising you if you wrote your response in twice the amount of lines given. There has to be some level of leniency because not all students have the same sized handwriting.

Sounds odd, but don't cross out. Get into the habit of keeping what you've written as set in stone.

Totally get you, I can imagine it's frustrating as heck. Look, 3 weeks is not a long time, but it's enough to significantly change the kind of marks you're getting. Here are two principles that will really elevate your studying right now: Study your weakest subject first, and your best subject...

Low 80s. Start studying really hard if you haven't already.

85 or thereabouts.

Don't overthink it. Make your notes and do past papers. Then, condense everything into 1-2 pages per topic. Reread that once over every week.

Don't overthink it. HSC and trial papers are good enough. As for textbooks recommendations - Cambridge for Maths, Physics and Chem In Focus, and Time Dixon for Economics.

One that you keep adding to.

Hey, that's not bitchy nor petty. Being frustrated that no one is trying, and that this will affect your own performance is so normal. For now, you've just got to accept that it is what it is. Putting that aside, whilst the HSC rewards cohorts that do well together, it isn't so rigged that it...

At this point, you don't need to memorise everything. Make a 1-2 pager cheat sheet of the most important concepts per topic. Do past papers at the same time.

Yep, this sounds perfectly fine. In both cases, the only thing that matters is that you regularly review your notes, as well as add new things you come across along the way.

Yep.

Both the comments above hit the nail on the head. If you want to type your notes, then type them. If you want to write them, then write them. Just get your first set of notes down. From there, you can start to cut things out and insert more things. You might even insert exemplar responses into...
