they align up so much, that it's not funny.

Give me an example from first hand experience, as to just how much they are aligned

I got 87 in the English SC, and I got 67 in the trials. I doubt I got a raw mark above that in the actual SC. yet I still got 87.. which is shit but meh.

My SC study consisted of reading over my notes the night before...worked all right for me..I think my lowest mark was 89.

DONT study for computing skills..I know only basic stuff about computers and ended up with 97/98..most of it is basically commonsense

If you want to study, then do..but seriously, its not that necessary if you have been paying attention in class most of the time

87 is good! its almost a band 6! i guess you have very high standards looking at your atar aim lol

In two years you'll wonder why you were such a dumb fuck even dedicating a minute to studying for an absoluutely insignificant test. Assuming you plan to complete hsc. So take my advice and throw away your books and just go do something enjoyable while you can.

SC is so messed up lolz, i got 45% for my Geography trials, and ended up getting 85% for the SC. LOL WTH, i didn't even study for it, just made it up.

And my two lowest subjects which were high b4s, i'm now acing, modern history and Science(without studying)

So don't worry about SC it has no bearing on how you'll perform in HSC.

 

[slyhunter]

I'd just like to ask why many people are studying for the SC. Many of you I assume will go on to the HSC, therefore rendering any SC result insignificant. Enjoy school and have fun now!

Besides you can ace it just be reading a textbook the night before and making stuff up as you go in extended responses.

I think you mean your trials are tomorrow, rather than the actual SC which isn't for a couple of weeksStudy? For the SC? Seriously? I'll probably just do some past exams and leave it at that, no worries.Heaps of people at my school are stressing, but it's like you get 50% for just writing your name so it's like a no-fail situation (providing you put your name on the paper..)

[Sculzyoner]

I'm just doing past papers.... For my school exams the examinable stuff is more direct.

 

[ehtefaz.hedayet]

LOL @ this thread, you don't need to study for the SC. I just can't stress that enough.

Dude seriously just shut up. Maybe some of us WANT to study for it, be it for a useless exam or not. Would we really go on a student study forum if we didn't want to study for exams?

Think about how someone would feel if everyone told them not to study for it, so he/she didn't, and ended up with a Band 4 or lower? Please don't respond with, "Only stupid people would get that," because it happens quite a lot.

Don't give me that shit about it being easy and that it doesn't affect your school life at all, some schools (like mine) look at your School Certificate marks to decide whether you are eligible enough to do certain subjects for Year 11.
