Of course it's possible to cram in 2 weeks. Only thing is you end up with a ~60 ATAR
I would be so happy with an atar of 60 lol. I thought 2 weeks of cram would get you a mystery mark cause there's just too much content, especially for someone who literally has to relearn the content

Yeah I know. I was being generous when I said 60, people over here were saying much higher than 60...I think they misunderstood cram in 2 weeks for revision in 2 weeks.

Oh crap...so I have no hope? :'(

My ranks are okay, I got an estimate for high 70s when I have literally done nothing this year. I just got lucky, I bullshitted my exams, my teachers like me and my cohort is not strong AT ALL. I pretty much have no fucking knowledge on any of my subjects and this depresses me. I have like a very serious procrastination problem and I constantly feel like an unproductive piece of shit which makes it VERY hard for me to study. I just want an atar of 40 and i'll be so happy. :C

If your aim is 40, then you definitely do have hope. Just get off this website, and start studying. I know people say don't over do it, but you've only got like 21 days so cram cram cram i.e do 10 hours+ per day and you can get 40+ easily.

Hmm you have approximately 4 to 5 days per subject, you better get cramming (y). Btw, you are gonna need a lot of coffee and red bull,

P.S. stay away from the beer if you think your life becomes unbearable once you start to feel the burn.

I realised every single one of my exams except for English are in early November, if not right at the end of October (28th and 30th) so I have the rest of this month and all of October as well. That's roughly an extra 2 weeks, so around 5 weeks all together. I've just made a study time table. I'm going to study from 9am to 3am. That's 18 hours of study + 6 hours of sleep per day. I'll spend roughly 3-4 hours for every subject everyday with 5 minute breaks every now and then + 1 hour for dinner, shower and all that stuff lol. I hope I can pull this off.

Try to be efficient more than anything, after so long your study becomes ineffective. I would reduce the amount of hours and put more rest in or else you'll burnout and i'm not sure if you will make it through 5 weeks.

Maybe 12-14 hours with 8 hours sleep?

Do 12 hours a day, not 18. That's way too much. Twelve is too much to naturally do in the school year, but hsc is <3 weeks away so it can work.
