    Has anyone finished making notes for each of their subjects?

    The only subject I'm making notes for is Eco, but I don't find making study notes useful, only reading/annotating them so I just got some from a past student and updated stats

    History Extension - Current Progress

    Yeah definitely, and even if you drop, that research will help with modern and/or ancient!

    History Extension - Current Progress

    I don't do the course, but I have a few friends that do it and a few that did it last year. At our school the major work was something like 2600 words so not a whole lot. I'm not sure if it's the same at your school but at mine there is a fair bit of class time to work on it. Most of the people...

    How much should I do in the holidays?

    3 trials would be so rough though, especially for essay/content heavy subjects. But i suppose it would help with drilling the course into your head..

    How much should I do in the holidays?

    You are such a legend thank you! one more question, for essays in eco, do you recommend doing a fair few to practice or just planning them or finding a series of essay questions that all ask a similar thing but in different ways and having a set of a few really good essays that you can adapt to...

    Resit accelerated course?

    My ancient history teacher is a HSC marker and had a senior marker to come in and mark trials (which were about the same difficulty) so I don't think it's that. I was 10% ahead of 2nd place in trials and I got 96.. Then second improved a mark in HSC and got 87 so I think it was me on the day. I...

    Resit accelerated course?

    Ah I'm really not sure! I did that for all of last year, but close to double that amount in the holidays and I still only got 89... I don't know if it was me or the glandular fever :/

    Resit accelerated course?

    aw thank you!! Yess I think I'll just do a practice paper a fortnight, does that sound like a good amount? I did about the same last year, so I think that will be a good way to remember the content etc. do you think that would be enough?

    Resit accelerated course?

    Really? My teachers said it was the better one. And no I don't think it will count towards my atar. I performed far better in my other subjects for prelims than for ancient prelims. I'm not sure though. I just won't get glandular fever before the exam next year ahahah

    Resit accelerated course?

    nope, we just had 2 accelerated classes for engineering and ancient, but most people still do 10 units after accelerated. My workload really isnt that bad(content wise) so resitting it shouldnt be too bad.

    Resit accelerated course?

    yeah it's good, i think i may just do a practice paper once a fortnight (or month..) and cram in the month leading up to the exam. I remember it all pretty well now so ill just revise a bit throughout the year. And if it counts towards my atar, they always use the better mark so i think it...

    Resit accelerated course?

    I was first in every in school assessment and finished with an average of 95.. There is no hsc ancient class running this year so i couldn't redo classes (because people in my year did it accelerated)
