    How do I manage my time?

    I'm aiming to do 4 hours a day of study. I usually get home at 3:30, have an hour and 20 minutes to myself which includes a quick nap. Then get started on my work. The thing is with 4 hours of study, breaks are essential and by the time that is finished so around 10pm, i still have a lot of...

    studying and organisation

    hi people I am just wondering how everyone stays organised with their studying. What I mean is, I have all this content across all my subjects, and obviously is continually going to be more content added as the year goes on, but how do you guys make sure you are revising everything you need to...

    atomi

    for those that use or have used atomi, do you think it is enough to sustain my notes? (For PDHPE, CAFS and SOR) I love watching the videos and making my notes off them, but do you think the information they supply is sufficient and goes into enough depth to get bands 5 and 6?

    Taking Notes - Handwritten or Typed?

    Hi! So I am just entering my year 12 course, and I am really trying to step up my game this year. Year 11 I really didn't put in much work or remember any of my content or study at all, so I am trying to really push myself at the moment. I want to be better at taking notes and I can't decide...

    I think I screwed up..

    G’day fellow BoSers! I’ve created this thread to discuss what I’m sure is on everyone’s minds, how does one get a 99+ Atar? Including study habits, levels of extra curriculars, units and more! Hopefully we can dissect the formula to aceing the HSC. Good luck!

    Hi guys! Sorry for that little bit of click bait 😜 but I thought this would be the perfect place to discuss: 1)When is the best time to study for you? 2)Is waking up at 4 am really worth it? 3)Night vs morning studying
