ruse papers are just more time consuming cause they are wordy. they're so fucking boring. hsc papers are unique

i was so ass at eng, rank was horrid (cant remember exactly but i remember for trials i cried in class coz i got like 69% and my rank for that trial was in the bottom 50%)

anyway for the hsc I tried perfecting my essays and memorised a base general essay for every mod and I memorised a few extra quotes just in case, and for short answer (I was actually so ass i always failed that at school or got lower than avg) I kept on practicising with other school/trial/hsc papers and would cmpare my answer with the sample answer and see the difference/take note of what I was missing

I ended up getting an 85 so yeah not as great as what others have gotten here but I think it was way better than what I was expecting

how many sections of unseen texts did u do during this time period? say like 2 weeks b4 hsc

My foundations r cooked

thats the beauty of discovering them now

imagine during the day of the hsc u get surprised with these questions

if ur talking abt math pls keep doing questions. the hsc has certain patterns and youll thank yourself later bc formulas will only take u to certain extents

How are you guys studying for those 'content' subjects (eco, bst etc)? I'm barely getting through half of each past paper, I think it's over for me.

Atomi videos + anki flash cards, thats it no past papers got rank 1 in bio thru this method so imma stick to it cos i got no time for past papers

Also my school is shit so, rank 1 doesnt mean shit

Fair enough haha. How are you using Atomi videos? Making notes on them while watching?

well yeh throughout the year we've done textbook questions

id say only do textbook questions rn for topics ur truly weak in so u can grasp foundational skills b4 u grind out past papers. though hsc starts in like 15 days theres abt 21 days till the math exam so u do have time. if ur feeling a bit uncomfortable rn i recommend working simultaneously with ur textbook, anki and past paper questions

u can spread out a past paper between days rather than doing a whole paper in one sitting. that way you'll still get past papers done. also at this rate maybe work on hsc questions if u feel uncomfortable instead of trial papers cuz theyre more challenging and u dont want to be freaking out rn

I never make notes, i just make cloze flash cards for definitions. And basic flash cards for listing stuff/ describing processes.

Then i copy the stuff in the basic and make multiple clozes on that awell.
- Seperate card for listing examples, then another for explaining impacts etc

Also the aim is to guage high yield stuff and keep your cards as small/concise as possible. Cut out useless things

so 1 idea per card, split it up as much as possible. Also when you cloze make sure you close 95% of the info so you dont get pattern recognition

ur delusional to think u would be in a better position at a higher ranked school. Ur first rank means u can't be dragged down by cohort, meanwhile you can in a higher ranked school if you aren't first. Literally basic maths and common sense

Yea thats the plan tbh its my fault for ignoring math, i think i will do a decent amount of textbook for calculus and maybe jump in to past papers for the rest since they r straight forward

wtf thats why i wrote it doesnt mean shit, cos i didnt wanna come of as bragging

Ik abt scaling and all that thats why im rank 1

What i meant was my lazy method worked cos the exams were easy and the marking was lenient.

I think 14b had an average mark of 22%, and 14c was 33% (according to smartermaths)
14d is surprisingly manageable though
