I've been in a really good pattern so far.
In Year 11 I didnt do much general study at all, just did homework and assignments and studied for exams and such.
This year I'm averaging about 3 hours a night on just general study, that was my goal and now I want to keep it :)

Oi dude, seriously, you're f*cked. Calm the f*sk down - HSC for you isn't for another 11 months. ~5 hours a day now - no point at all. Hope you don't burn out? Shit yeah you are going to burn out.

Woah! If you don't mind can i see your timetable? I'd like to see how you can fit those study hours in your day-to-day life. I'm doing approximately 3 hours nowadays since there is little content to cover. I'm sure I'll pick up more hours as assignments build up.

At the moment, I feel kind of pissed off that the ranks don't carry on. I'm on the same level as everyone else arghhh ==". Can't help but question my ability to produce a better/same mark and rank. Just annoying listening to people saying how they're going to beat me this year. I try to ignore those comments but arghh... pisses me off so much.

Lol, I think you should calm down first :)

This is my prime reason for studying so much:
I figure, if I study 5 hours a day from here to the HSC, I'll do ~1800 hours of study. 1800 hours is much more than enough to study everything in minute detail.
There's my prime motive, there's also the added factor that I'll have like a 1000 hour head start from when we seriously start studying hardcore for the HSC -> quite advatangeous eh?

I have no life :)
As you can see in my sig, I'm trying to avoid too much socialisation for Year 12, I'm trying to become a fully fledged nerd.
Do you remember in year 7, you promised yourself 'I'll start studying later and own year 12'
Well I said that every year up 'til last year, and now the time has come for me to uphold that promise -> Live the dream :D
Anyways, I just go to Macquarie Library straight after school, have a quick ~30min powernap and start studying 'til 9-10ish, at which time I go home and computer/sleep
I sometimes have tuition though (Tuesday and Wednesday), I usually just study at the tuition place or come home and TRY to study (note: I can't study at home..)
On Fridays the library closes at 5, so I usually go to a different library that closes at 8:30
And on Saturdays I just study 2 hours in the morning, go out/relax, and study 3 more hours at night
(Sundays: Church and then tuition again)

It's not that hard really =X

Oh yeah and, I'm glad the ranks don't carry on.. As I said, I did close to no work last year (except a little in Maths)
So my ranks are quite.. Disadvantageous

i think ill do ok. scared though.
i didnt study like at all for prelims and kinda need to try a little this year and next.
(might help)

it's scary though that people are studying this much so early!
i mean, i know it's important, but every now and then it might be good to have a break, perhaps..
