How much study these holidays? (2 Viewers)

[ameh]

I've currently set out 5.5hours of study and 2 hours of reading time, allowing time to sleep in and have a lengthy 1hour of lunch or walk outside/tv-time/Net/phone...so mainly allocate your time so you dont end up procrastinating and if that doesnt work then delete msn temporarily and d/c the TV but I think a balance between entertainment break time and hours of study is needed to stay sane!

this sounds a bit lame but don't punish yourself

 

[Sarah168]

I've made a list of things to be done.

It is 5 pages...no joke. Yes, I am scared out of my wits. Yes, I shall get off boS....soon

Well, im going to do 24 hours a day and hook myself up to a dialysis machine and not sleep, eat or drink! And im going to go to the toilet in my pants!!


Listen to yourselves, some of you sound absolutely ridiculous.

 

[Sarah168]

yeah, but if we stick to it, then who will be laughing at the end of November

Yes, it is a big IF.....

how is 3-4 hours a day 'ridiculous' you spend twice as long at school!

 

[FcUk]

r u guys crazy? do u not have lives... im serious if u study that much i rekon u will be doin worse than good...if i studied 3-4 hours a day i would be a genius... i believe too much study is bad for u... anyways thats my 2 cents

 

[Xayma]

So going to school and attending lessons for 4 hrs is worse for you then skiping half the day?

[Tenille]

(please do not take my advice literally)

Trials? I thought you were in yr 11...what other accelerated subjects do you do beside ee2?

well... adv and ee1
you can't do each level of eng without doing the level preceding it

 

[Tabris]

Cant be bothered studying, the fact that its the holidays not to mention trials start in week 5, studying seems to be the last of the "to-do" list, may not be much of a holiday, but still trying to have fun and enjoying the break seems to be better than working 6 horus a day.

1-2 hours a day is goood enuff for studying, 25 min on each subject everydya for the holidays

U must have great self-control to do 6+ a day and perhaps nothing else to do

 

[glycerine]

well the other thing is most people i know of have trials in weeks 2-3, not week 5, so they don't have as much time to waste

one our teachers whose daughter was dux of the school told us approx 9 hours aday in 3 hour blocks with 2 hour breaks. SO far its tuesday and i have done 4 hours out of the 12 i had planned doesnt help that i am on here.

Also in the first week
tuesday - legal essay and modern speech/essay
weds -SOR1 women assignment Mathematics exam
thurs nothing
friday Human story assignment for bio
i was lukky that my Ext Hist MP was due on the last day of term 2 I got it out of the way and i am not leaving it to the last minute
then 1st Aug trials start my timetable is looking pretty crap in the first week

 

[ameh]

9 hours a day is nuts! how much are u supposed to do on school days then?

 

[my sharona]

i have written one 20 word poem this entire holidays...
i am considering asking to be blocked from BoS until everything is over...

but on a positive note, i can finish minesweeper expert in 190 seconds...

 

[Silver Rose]

Oh great... now I feel so guilty >_< I haven't done ANYthing...

 

[Egghead]

Yeh it makes you feel guilty, but alot of people on this forum obviously don't have anything to do. I don't think I could even do 1 hour of study without cracking. It's not that hard to do alright in your subject, if some are so determined to do so much study, they should of been smart enough to listen in class. I get 70+ without studying.. Although I might when my Trials get closer to me in Week 3, but some people are just rediculous! It's the holidays, calm down.

 

[hyperbole]

I'm in Year 11. It's holidays, and I'm not really studying.
My goal is to finish all my assessments and make summaries for business studies, economics and chemistry.

Good Luck for your trials.
