Calling all year 10's..a year 11er here! (1 Viewer)

[sexysarah2003]

Hey all!

Ok you might not think that year 10 isn't a big deal, especially if you are going onto year 11, but l tell you what it IS a big deal. Its like a training for the HSC.

I got band 3 for maths
band 5 for science
band 4 for technical drawing
band 4 for english
band 4 for drama
band 4 for history
band 3 for geography

I studied really really really hard for all of them. The maths one was unexpected and l thought l got a higher mark than l did. But now l am the highest in my grade in general maths.

Remember if you are doing advanced maths, do 2 U or 3 U next year.

if your in intermediate, do general.

If your in standard, my teachers don't recommend that you do maths at all, but if you really want to then give general maths a shot ^_^

omg dont listen to her. yr 10 is not important at all. use this time wisely and have fun ffs!

right now im in yr 11 and i can tell ya, its gonna get alot worse so i say again... have fun!

 

[babydoll_]

No! it is NOT time to have fun! It is time to forge good study habits and get into the habit of working hard, cos itll be harder to adjust in year 11

 

[Rory]

I agree with babydoll_ , yr10 is a good time to start steady study regimes (lol go the alliteration) lol I've never been big on studying and now I'm in home schooling so my motivation is way low because I've never really been into a study thing, so now Im kind of screwed, so I suggest yr10's concentrate on motivating and disciplining themselves to get ready for year11, or most importantly, yr12!

i didn study at all... maths english science -89 89 89 (dissapointing coz i thought i'd get abnd 6 for all of them)

history geo - band 4 (didnt even touch the book)

unless ur doin history or geo next year then dont waste ur time studying for something which means absolutely nothing

 

[KarmaKitten]

i didnt bother with the SC and I did quite well,
band 6 for english and history
band 5 for the rest

 

[Leap]

The SC doesn't mean a thing!
Don't stress in year 10! Its not worth it! Life is too short!
I studied the night before and got
Band 6 in English
Band 5 in Science
Band 4 In Maths

you guys are so brave attackling the sc without giving a damn about it. even though i know it ain't a big deal 4 u it is at my school since it stops at yr 10 instead of yr 12. (most of us go to a senior school from yr 11 to 12)
the sc is a highly stressed for i don't know why and everyone gets stressed for the huge assessments. also the marks u get on da sc reflects on the subject selection so if you stink on the maths, science and english work by the end of the 1st semester, you can't go into subjects like advanced english, 3u maths, chemistry and physics even if you really wanted to do it so much. yeah i don't know about how your schools react to the SC but as you can c my school is really sh**ty

Yeah I went to a school that only went for years 7-10 too - so I know exactly what you mean, when I was in year 10 they made the biggest deal about the SC, luckily I didn't get sucked in by it.
In my experience, the SC was basically general knowledge - and much easier than the trial SC that my school set.

 

[kimmeh]

what school do u currently go to?

 

[tazzy]

u don't need to study for sc ...
just do practice papers to get the feel of it
thats all

i mean i didnt study much for sc and i did fine all 5s

 

[Giant Lobster]

bah
the sc is overrated
no study at all. did 1 practise paper in class the week b4 exams as part of a class exercise.
came out with 5 6 6 4 4
considering i spent 1.5 hrs in geog + hist, leaving 1.5 hrs of sleep time.

actually studying stuff for sc can actually worsen ur situation if u think about it. especially for stuff like math, if ur doing advanced math. i remember in yr 10 i was learning logs, polynomials and differential calculus. i studied them for the yearlies. fort they mite be useful in the sc so i kinda studied em again. i ended up half lost cos all the stuff they ask u is so general and applicable to real life i wasnt use to the basics and did some silly addition errors. "forgot to carry the one" type errors. lol
so ppl, dont bother studying. its non applicable shit, especially if ur selective.
