Use highlighters and coloured pens to trace around things eg. cyclic quads. It helps you see solutions quicker and makes diagrams less confusing.

Not if you can make up for it in the assessments you have left.

1. Your biology textbook 2. Excel/Macquarie Study guides 3. http://www.csu.edu.au 4. Notes from the Bored of Studies There's plenty of info out there...

me_too_scared, I don't know anything about your related texts, but if you can justify their relation to an imaginative journey, they should work.

I usually read the text once through before we started it in class, and then looked at the relevant parts when we were studying it. And skimmed through it again for important things before trials and the HSC exams. But I think I would have benefited from reading through a couple more times...

Using picture books doesn't necessarily mean that you'll get less marks. But they might be more difficult to discuss in an essay, since you'd have to describe them before you analysed them. I didn't do Coleridge so I don't know what would go well with it, but my English teacher suggested Life of...

The HSC exam and the trials definately matter a whole lot if you want good results. Your HSC exam mark and assessment mark are averaged to get your HSC mark, so you want as high an assessment mark as you can get to bring the average up. And for that you need to NOT stuff up in the trials.

If you work hard and get good results in any combo of subjects, you should be able to get 94+.

I did the song Kryptonite by 3 Doors Down. Probably couldn't explain how it relates to imaginative journeys now.

It took me a long time to figure that one out. Eventually I went for 1-2 hour study blocks with a 15 minute break in between. Any longer than that and my brain would seize up. It depended on the subject. English I would write out quotes and memorise them (by writing them on a piece of paper...

Sometimes you can get away with having a general idea of the text and some REALLY good quotes with excellent analysis, arguments etc; etc; attached. On Giants' Shoulders comes to mind. But it really depends on the text... you probably couldn't get away with it in novels eg. Wuthering Heights or...

I got in!!!! UAI 98.80, UMAT 191 (scores) 258 (percentiles)

I used Jones and Couchman for 3u. Didn't really have a 2u textbook... teacher pointed out the appropriate parts of the 3u book.

reassurance Separate what you need to learn into concepts you need to understand vs stuff you need to learn off by heart and regurgitate in an exam. Makes study MUCH easier. Trust me.

take heart, there's always the january round of interviews. and the guy at the UNSW med lecture on open day said you have an equal chance of getting in whether your interview is sept/oct or jan.

umat prep course it's not the end of the world if you don't do a course. i know someone who just did their own preparation, got some practice questions from the internet and from other med entry tests... they did pretty well (well, they got an interview)

unit numbers It really depends on what kind of person you are. The time you spend on your backup units might be better spent on the 10 other units that you really want. Some people work better under pressure (ie with more units) Personally, I'm not that type.

well, my examiner wouldn't let me a) finish what i was saying or b) let me explain why. that affected my fluency damnit damnit damnit. there's nothing i can do about it now...

Subjects for Year 11 Hello, I'm in year 12 at the moment and I have 2 suggestions: 1. Unless your teacher is very good, the Preliminary Physics course is boring as hell. 2. Don't do 14 units in Year 11. That's all I have to say.
