[First topic, so hey ya'll]

Hey guys, my school certificate exams are up on Monday, as well as my yearly's. I've been putting off studying for a couple of days... well, months, and now I'm going to cram like hell. Pretty much I'll be devoting 5 hours after school to study like hell. I'm pretty lucky when cramming, even to the point of sourcing out a 94% for my Mathematics exam with just 3 hours of studying.

So a simple, simple question. Am I screwed for the SC exams?

Meh.

I basically did what you did for the HSC. SC doesn't even matter, best part about it was the 3 month break afterwards.

Ah right.

Thing is, it's the pressure I'm getting to do well though. If I get a UAI below 70, it's basically a bullet to the head for me.

Yes you are screwed pretty much. Unless you actually remember all your stuff without regular study.

Back to thread topic. If you're really worried, which you sound like you are, 'cram'. But take it from me that it is not really worth it. I was the same as you, thinking I hadn't studied enough. But in the end I pulled off 6's. However, I quickly forgot about it.

That's pretty cool.

Seems the attitude around this board is that SCs aren't really that important, which seems to make my whole perspective of it slightly better.

And it's not that I haven't studied enough. It's the fact that I haven't studied at all.

I haven't studied either, i'm gonna study on the weekend though.

And no you're not screwed. Just do one or two past papers for each subject and that should be enough. =D
