The year will go faster as you head into June. With assessments, trials and uni info coming out, July and August goes fairly quickly Then theres the final revision of September and constant study in October, you really lose track of time.

Then there's 4 months where you'll get fairly bored...

I think you will find moving out isnt really the great, fun adventure you expect it to be.

I don't like philosophical question.

That explainsw why I am doing Cosmology instead of Philosophy.

Anyway, you are putting far too much pressure on you. HSC is really not much of a deal. As someone already mentioned 60000+ people do it and most cope fine.

Sometimes, you will find that Preliminary is harder than HSC year (I did).

Same boat :|

I just want to complete the freaking HSC and get over it! More surprises upcoming when school starts though ;) fuelled with learning, stress, exams and the whole crazy process leading up to the HSC :lol:

But thank god we don't have to attend the final year of high school until December :D

Not necessarily. People have their own specialties in a particular course.

Yes but I mean that workload & general course difficulty (exams etc) are of a very hard standard in med, no matter how good you are.

Yer, i cruised throughoutyear 12, just the minimum amout of homework and only studied for the assesment, not daily. I felt burnt out by the time the hsc came along and didnt study as much as i should have but managed a 90+ uai, though honestly not as high as i would have liked but enough for uni. And i felt that the cruising instead of overworking helped me. Just doing the right amount when it comes to exams, and having notes prepared weeks before exams

I think I'm more worried about AFTER the HSC... because I really have no clue what's going to happen after it's over.
