Could someone lend me some motivation. (1 Viewer)

[Hiheyhello]

Every time I try to take a “break” for a week it ends being a week filled with shame and regret because I’m not studying, then when the week is over it’s as if I never took a break at all. and the cycle repeats

try not to feel too guilty about it now that the hsc’s been pushed back!

also i think it rlly will depend on how you use your “break”

more on that to come…

 

[Hiheyhello]

i sorta wanna delegate like an entire 3-4 weeks since the hsc got postponed, dunno if that’s going overboard though. i’ll do at least 2 weeks for sure

sameee i’m pretty sure imma need a solid 2 weeks at least

I think what you could rather do than taking a full week off studying and then unwillingly have to resume the following week would be to have deload days. So essentially, you are still doing something productive each day, but you may want to reduce the number of hours you spend per day. Within that week, you may want 1-2 full days off, but any more than that and you will find that it is much more difficult to get back into the groove of studying to a schedule. You could maybe spend a few hours studying a day as a deload period, and during the rest of the day, just chill or even go on some forums (like this one) and just read through any topics which are of use to you. By doing that, you aren't completely neglecting your studies for a whole week, but you are still engaging in some sort of 'passive' work, even if it isn't the most productive.

i was thinking of picking up writing as a hobby after school ends but eh since the hsc is extended i might as well do it now
as a bonus, it might help with mod C

What a great idea, but I'll pass

[hiiitsme]

Given the amount of work nesa expects of us this is like a 50 cent hourly rate haha. Made me exhale slightly heavier from my nose tho so thanks lol

 

[hiiitsme]

I have one exam to go

What is your exam format for trials? Interested to see if ours is normal or not

 

[hiiitsme]

Our

How did you go in your latest bio exam (not the trial one)

our trial was bullshit. I was hopeful to keep a clean sheet in but think I lost my first mark cos there was a question which didn’t make sense so they had to change it. IN THE EXAM. But it was a two hour exam so probably dropped something else also, what can you do

 

[may22]

How tough does year 12 bio get?

I just did my prelim bio exam like 2 hours ago and was not expecting what was in it

 

[may22]

I found it much more enjoyable

So therefore more motivation to study for it right?

 

[may22]

No need to call me out like that

lockdown changed a lot of things okay

It did

Ngl though, multiple choice in any of the sciences is always the worst

 

[hiiitsme]

Adding to this, module 8 was what our depth study was based on. Meaning for module 6 ive had no exams on it and thus will probably be the one I will struggle with the most

Lucky module 6 is the easiest imo, only 3 inquiry questions and lots of overlap. remembering a couple of good GMOs for examples then you’ll be fine

 

[stressedadfff]

Yeah, only one person got full marks, so I guess my rank isn’t too bad

I’m still kinda disappointed though, I lost two marks on the last two questions for the same reason sbsunsisn

How’s your school ranking

 

[Directrix]

Yeah my school make their trial papers. I thought every school makes their own trial papers? Is that not the case?

na, a bunch of catholic schools do cssa and other types of company produced papers like independant, neap, exam choice etc

 

[stressedadfff]

Shit lol

same same HAHA
