It's Yr 11...and I already find this sh1t hard. Everyday after school, it's almost work, work, work. It's wayy different from yr 10. I don't really understand what teachers say in my school. My school is among the worst in NSW. That's what people from around the school say. I don't want to mention it's name. I learn all my stuff ONLINE. or by tutoring. The one that I'm using right now is "Prime Online Tutor". This site helped me alot. But still, I think I have no life doing this. Go to school, go home, WORK, WORK, WORK. 8:00 is like the only time where i go stuff like Facebook, Skype or League of Legends. I can't really seem to BALANCE my life.

My topics which most of you might know:

Math Standard 2U
English Advanced
Biology
Chemistry
Physics
Legal Studies

Currently, im using this http://www.primeonlinetutor.com/ I pay $40 every month for this. Their subjects include Chem,Phy,Eng and Math. But they are missing Biology and Legal Studies, which could really fck me up in exams. I might need notes from BOS....

How do I study these? and also balance life? I'm used to reading notes, like the one people use in the resource section. But I can't seem to find the perfect ones I'm looking for. Some notes might be missing with important stuff. Are their any 99.95 ATAR people out their? If so, how did you study? THX

1) pay attention in class
2) summarise your shit, turn a paragraph into a sentence, and a sentence into a word
3) spend 2 hours a day on study
4) leave 1 day for leisure
5) dont listen to the shit people say. pure excrement. your just believing its true when it's not.
6) get a proper tutor or find older students who have done the work if you still need help

All or most of the notes here are summarised versions of the full course. Don't expect you can learn everything required for the course by just relying on these notes. Most people here I believe who used those notes only used them as a 'study guide' not as a replacement textbook.
Also I wouldn't worry too much now, since preliminary is just an introduction of the course to give you an idea of "where you stand" within the course. Obviously since you are doing many units (12u) it will drain up your spare time, so expect that. However, if you still are finding difficulties with your social and schooling life when doing 10u, then you are probably going too slow or are struggling in your course(s).
