I used too despise chemistry, my chemistry teacher then sat down and talked to me for about 20min about how the way i interact in class, and she pointed out ways on how I work, and how im the type of person for chemistry
dont ask my why, this unlocked this little chemistry interest in me, and bang i just shot up in marks, ranking and my interest sky rocketed
you also have to have a nice teacher
i personally dont give a shit about the stuff we learn abotu in maths general, it will most probably never apply to me in real life, and if it ever did, im not retarded so ill figure it out, but i got the best maths teacher i could ask for
my other 2 subjects SDD/IT is simply my keen interest in computers, even with stupid teachers i achieve well because if youre into comptuers alot you'd know already whta most the teachers on about, or at least a basic understanding, or furthermore a keen interest to fuel what the teachers telling you
business studies i have close to no interest for, thus why im getting 63/171 for business studies, which is alright but not good, but recently im just asking questions about whats happening in class, visualise about what the teachers talking about and how it applys to real life, then it clicks in
finally, english, i cant stress how much of a up and down subject this is, you either despise it totally or love it, if youre the person who does not easily get captivated, prepare to go good in english, if youre the type that flows along with everything then you will have to stop the way you view everything
initally i got 50/200 for english, but now its dropped too 78/215
I also didnt beat the average of 60/100 as i got 57/100
now i went to SAM, and i calculated my yearly results too SAM, and found my UAI in the mid 60s, then i went and pumped up my eng result to a reasonble 70-80%, and bang my UAI shot up to 80
then when i put english back down, and ALL my other subjects up to 80%, they didnt get same as english
even CHEMISTRY!, that goes too show that it enraged me too put in my best for english
you need to have self motivation and encouragement, i recieved the first bits of encouragement after my sister telling stories of she doing her HSC 10 years ago, her T.E.R. was low 90s, (which in todays UAI is ALOT higher), and she layed down methods, stratergies, analysed me and that encouraged me too study
for my year 11 yearlies, i went from 1 hour a day study to what im used too, to 4 hours a day, i jumped that in 1 week study, i went up 30min a day increments in study time
i wish i was back in start of year 11, you guys reading this have a fresh start, study hard, because once it comes to year 12, the hard study you did wont seem like much where as those people who go "just study hard for year12" - fuck that, you wont be too used too studying hard in year 12, thats thinking short sighted, if you start NOW in year 11, you will have the ethics and hard study morals, so when you are presented with HSC and must study 5+ hours a day, and you do 4 hours a day for year 11, it doesnt seem much of a task compared to used to doing 0 hours a day then jump to 5
catch my drift ?
She said tips.......not a major work...lol
