hsc mode - is it all it was made out to be? (1 Viewer)

[BackCountrySnow]

Does anyone feel like they don't really care what they receive in the Half Yearlies anymore, because of the stress? I kinda feel that way, but my other half tells me to keep going... Confused...

nah, im not stressed at all lol.
I'm studying and I want to do the best i can.
But if it doesnt happen ill still be fine..

I've done cumulative study for the last two weeks (except for physics and religion) instead of last minute study madness. Worked for IPT :S

Physics= cram the whole 2 topics in 3 days, got some nice notes
relgion = doesnt count so why do i care?

More like I don't care because they're onyl 20% to my internals, whereas my prac exams are 30%.

I've found that I've switched on hsc mode for my half yearlies studing. In year 11, studying was more of a chore and I didn't study very productively. I've spent this entire weekend studying, not wasting any time.... and there is this urge to keep on studying, its not like.. ahh I'm tired.. its more like gotta keep going.

Good luck to everyone with half yearlies starting this week!

For me, first up English tomorrow. ughh...

HSC mode is cram mania the night before an exam.

Half-yearly results will wake everyone up next term. That's when it'll start.

I assume in your sig you mean Caringbah High School?

In that case, why are you doing religion when it "won't count"?

Sorry to bring back the dead, but since half yearlies started everyone is taking year 12 reaally seriously. dont know if it will last but i have a feeling it will
