Our school banned muck up day. And then gave us muck up week... Yeah, we have a weird school. The only catch is that we can't get juniors involved. Our grade was thinking of having an end of the world theme where we dress up as mad scientists and go around screaming about meteors or...

So far, it seems like I'm the only person in my class who has bothered to memorise the speech. I still can't memorise it without occasionally glancing at my palm cards. Hopefully I get the top marks in my class...I'm so scared!!! But yes, I wholeheartedly agree. Memorising gives so much more of...

Remember to read questions carefully in your physics prac. That's where I stuffed up. Don't screw up like me!! I've dropped from 8 to 20 from that one test so don't make the same mistake I did!!

I wrote full sentences. You never know when you're going to stumble or forget a specific word you wanted to say. I little trick I do to help me remember everything is highlight the bits on my palm cards that I know I always stuff up around. That way, when I say my speech, I know exactly where to...

I actually have practiced. I hand write my business/physics notes and take my time to make it neat. It seems perfectly fine to me but the teachers still say it appears messy although they can read it. I don't know what they define as illegible because everything I write seems perfectly fine...

800-900ish My writing is horrible and the teachers are always telling me to make it more legible. I seem to be able to make the words out perfectly though. Oh well..

Damn..just did terribly in my physics prac exam. I got 23/30 which I'm almost certain is below average since the lowest mark I know of is 20. Hopefully I can turn it around and get back into the top 10. As for coping, I haven't been doing well. I got a mountain of homework waiting for me :(.

I'm certain I will be. I'll be laughing at why I stressed over such little things like crying over a bad mark or cramming the night before.

Oh my goodness..I can see my physics rank going down the toilet :(. Stuffed my test up BADLY today and it was worth 35%. Lost at least 6 marks and there were only 42 marks altogether. The worst thing about it was that everyone else found it extremely easy and got all the marks I lost. I screwed...

Haha..Understatement much?

Does anyone else have a test tomorrow? Or some time this week? I got a physics prac and 2u maths test tomorrow. I'm scared but not stressed. I feel the urge to do maths questions to feel better.

Just keep it up. I'm pretty sure you can maintain your ranks if you keep revising and making notes. Let's hope I can do the same :/.

I feel that as well!! I just don't want to do ANY work. I can see my ranks dropping already :(.

Same here!! My teachers are racing through the topics and I'm having trouble keeping up. I would go and study on my own but I have so many exams ><. I'm not exactly stressed, I just panic. I have been slacking off since half yearlies and feel like my ranks will drop dramatically.

New York, Paris and maybe Japan. I'm scared if I go to Japan it would be like Lost in Translation and I would feel alienated. Except Bill Murray won't be there to save me :(.

For each of your points, how many techniques should you be putting in?

Thank you so much!! If I end up getting full marks in this (which I hopefully will), it'll be thanks to you. :)

Thanks for all your input!! The speech is supposed to be 5 minutes long. I have decided to include two points and go in depth. That's the right thing to do, yeah?

If I am making a speech, how many main points should I have if I am talking about 2 texts? Is it better to go in depth with 2 points or briefly talk about 3 points?

Is it wrong to say that made me feel even more stressed out? My ranks are much lower so I can't exactly place myself in that situation. Then it made me realise how close the HSC was and also how I haven't been doing any past papers for mathematics. Oh gosh...I should start worrying...
