Scared of stuffin up HSC! (1 Viewer)

[FreeWorld]

I'm paranoid about stuffing up my HSC considering i only have 11 units (realisticly 10units because i merely comprehend that 1 unit subject).

So what are the chances of ruining your HSC when you've studied every syllabus dot point and encompass everything that is required? Afraid i could stuff up something i worked so hard for.

we're all scared... well most of us are...

I don't think you should be scared.. i know, i'm only in year eleven, but all you can do is do your best.. and if you're intimidated by something, how can you do your best?
i've been with a lot of my friends who have done the hsc in recent years, a lot of them say.. you just have to keep moving on.. don't look back, just keep trying your best.

I have 10 units and I already stuffed up accounting I'm screwed.

 

[jeshxcore]

you still have til the end of the year....

There's many people who screw up both minorly and majorly, remember the HSC is a test of endurance and there's plenty of chances to improve. I've seen A LOT of people screw up in assessments even half-yearlies who still pull off 90+ ATAR.

im so scard because i know for a fact that im gonna f*** up coz im just not a bright person regardless of how much i study

@OP - if you're well prepared you won't stuff up.

For everyone else, don't be scared. Just try your best and go with the flow - whatever will happen will happen

But what if whatever will happen is not what we want to happen? I have no idea how to get into the course I want to through pathways apart from paying huge fees, which my family cannot afford, for colleges.

I hate getting a result you didn't think was great... it feels like it's impossible to catch up in ranks... sigh

I have 11 units, and i have stuffed up maths badly.
But I still have the year and im trying to think positive

i stuffed up my first math extension assessment task and am trying to get achieve a 99.0+ atar
Many people believe I won't be able to reach my goal because my subjects don't "scale very high"

I'm really positive though and know I'll prove all those people wrong as the year goes by

Safety net = Top 3 in all your assesments

by stuff up i assume you mean not get a 90 atar because if you are prepared to the absolute best of your ability for all your subs then you will be fine! believe me i walked out of my exams questioning myself and regreting not studying that little bit of the syllabus better but that is what it is like for everyone and i well surpassed my expectations. Believe me in a few months you will laugh at yourself for getting worked up. If you prepare for all your assessments adequately hsc is a breeze. Then you will get into uni and shoot yourself!

I'm doing my mid-year exams in 2 days, and I feel as if I'm running out of time to really step my game up and achieve some major improvement. D=

there's really no need to be scared if u noe u have put your 100% in then be confident in yourself ..... i think im really lucky to have parents that understand my strengths and weaknesses. And just expect me to do the best i can.... im not a smarty but i try my best and study and usually it pays off....

What degree do you want? I know there are many, many ways to get in backdoors. Of course some of them involve transferring which means you'll have to pay for another course and the chances of transferring are quite limited seeing as a heck of a lot of people will be trying to do the same thing.

However, screwing up in the HSC is not the end of the world. I know many people who have aimed to get into med/law and by falling short of their goal, they have found other passions or are exploring other passions before attempting to transfer.

Everyone is in the same position for the HSC - everyone is scared about failing to meet their goal/expectations. But it is those who harness this fear and use it as motivation to work harder and not let it get to them that ultimately prevail

Just try your hardest and if you're well prepared you won't fail. You're most likely overestimating the HSC
