Loving year 11 so far, average of 1/2hr to 1hr homework a night while sleeping/checking NBA scores in half my classes and still pulling good marks

Edit: well to be honest, I do do all my homework, just dont get much, and pay attention in everything except Maths and sometimes eco and study well for tests. But work is still probably around 1hr a night. Like today I haven't done anything

Lol, like the other way around for me....focus a lot on Maths, sometimes on Physics....not so much with the rest.

Absolutely nothing. Year Eleven has hitherto been an incredibly joyful experience. Work is challenging, teachers are supportive and my peers are starting to value work ethic. Good luck everyone, don't burn out.

This.

My Advanced English teacher is one of these.

Hello peoples!
Just asking around - I choose bad scaling subjects but I was wondering if I could still get 87+
English Ad
Mathematics
Food Tec
Biology
Business Studies
Heritage Chinese

How is everyone going in their assessments?? Good?

Definitely possible.
Focus on your weaker subjects- remember 10 units count to your atar

seniors get treated much more as adults than junior high school

seniors get treated much more as adults than junior high school

But then higher expectations from teachers ):

Let's see...

1. My Advanced English teacher. I almost fall asleep in her classes, she just goes on and on about nothing and when she sets work, she is always very vague about what is actually required. I have an in class essay due Monday week. God help me...

2. My Business Studies teacher and class. The teacher is terrible, doesn't stay on topic for more than five minutes, tells terrible jokes and it takes several periods to watch videos due to him constantly pausing the video and going on long, often unrelated rants. The class is annoying too, a lot of drop kicks and people who muck around (I guess this is to be expected in Business Studies).

3. My grade itself, it's full of cliquey, narcissistic fools who are obsessed with gossip and drama. Thankfully most of them are doing the IB.

So true. Opens the door for me and like two other kids to maintain high internal rank though

very short amount of time to complete the preliminary course and Biology was soooo boring ...

 

[feeo_o]

the class has finished the whole 2 unit maths course (pre-lim and HSC) already, and i've completed only half of it -.- and there's an exam week 1 term 2

 

[marlow415]

[Girls]

Getting 39/40 in 2U today with everything correct except a line of working, which still gave the correct answer.

Kind of wish I did modern instead of economics. I'm not going bad at economics, it just feels like I'm regurgitating the text book. There's no analysis.
