Already had mine Wk 6-7.

Seriously want to bitchslap whoever wrote my timetable. In the second week, I had Math E1 on Monday, then Math E2 and English E1 on Tuesday.

Seriously.. sleep. And only drink red bull/coffee before an exam if it's in the morning and your only exam for the day.

I finished my half-yearlies a week ago.
Tips:
1) Get a good night sleep
2) Have a good breakfast
3) Get up early and memorise essays/ revise stuff
4) Just close your eyes and relax when you get into the exam hall.
5) You still have the trials and the HSC exam, so dont overwork yourself.

Thats something that actually worked for me :D
Good luck :)
