    The Night Before An Exam

    Starcraftmazter, I think you're study patten should involve a zerg rush, just do heaps of little study fast and it'll amass to something really big, then you can rush the exam's defences and finish the exam early-game. As for me, I think of the exam like a giant crab, and to do well you have to...

    Does anyone feel..?

    Does anyone feel like every exam just isn't working out how it should..? Like that you just NEVER get any essay question you prepared for (What's the chance of studying hard for 28/30 dot-points, and having an essay from the other two?), or you just aren't answering anything well, and walking...

    Illness during exams

    Yeah I think you just get your assessment mark and that's it.. As for how the system works, I'm sure they just accept everything with a valid medical certificate as long it makes sense, such as "stomache ache" or "flue" etc... But I mean unless you have "broken nail" or something everything with...

    The Night Before An Exam

    Yeah I'm terrible - I get little sleep anyway, and the night before exams I get 1-2hours (I start obsessing over what the time is) my advise is take an MP3 player or CD walkman to bed with you and listen to some music for awhile. If you're STILL really stressed over it watch some episodes of a...

    General Thoughts - Modern History

    Yeah I must say the questions on Vietnam just came out of NOWHERE. I was so sure there would be a question on either tactics and strategies, US defeat or impact on civilians in Indochina. So there I was writing about Pol Pot, a person who I had never even bothered reading about in class. I'm not...

    Imaginative Journey: Unexpected Destinations

    Wow I think my reply was REALLY over-simplified and I'm totally freaking out reading what you all did - all I did was say it depended on the nature of the journey - chaotic imaginative journeys led to an unexpected destination, enriching imaginative journeys led to an expected destination. I...

    I think if you're just changing your stimulus excert text you wont have any problems.

    Need advice/tips/help - 2 exams in one day

    I don't advise it but I have a friend with 2 exams on one day, only he does 12 units so he is just studying for one of the exams and giving minimal time to the other. But like all risks it'll either really pay off, or fall through pretty horribly..

    worked harder for trials than hsc?

    Wow tanjin I am 100% the exact same as you. I just have not gotten myself to start working, and chances are I wont work until the day before the HSC starts and then during the HSC.. Just the problem is, when you are doing that little work and so many others have been working for weeks, you're...

    Does Geography scale your UAI down a lot?

    Yeah I am a little worried about my geography too, but as Watatank said, like all subjects if you go badly you'll scale down... Mind you geography is just about knowing each section of the course well enough for short answer or essay questions.. And spending sometime going over the infinately...

    how much study are you doing a day?

    Yeah right now I am doing roughly 2 - 3 hours, but I'm working on trying to up i to something more substancial. As it is its really not enough time. Still... Gotta start somewhere..

    Bored of Studies!

    So last year in the year 11 yearly exam I got 7/15 for my Comprehension section of the English exam, which was not too promising for this trial.. Thus the morning of my english exam I read over all the threads in this section of the forum on techniques and advice etc... I just got my result back...

    Big Day Out 2008

    I think QOTSA are a plausable option for filling the role of one of the major bands that could play - they came after the release of Songs For The Deaf a couple years ago so they are overdue to come play again! = P

    Real estate in the United States

    That would explain why inner-city areas in Australia are so incredibly expensive still. But I mean cities in Australia have the same sort of rough idea, I mean, I live in Sydney so I have to use it for my example, but in Hornsby and Chatswood (north shore too) there are shopping districts that...
