Difference between trial and real thing (1 Viewer)

[petayani]

Here's a question for you all: is it possible that my trial exam was the hardest ever written (I got 31%!!) or did I just not do enough work? In the tests during the year I went heaps better, tho I do have a lot of work to do over the next few days. The paper looked like an encyclopedia it was so thick! Anyone else find the same problem?

I'm in country NSW
Most years only a few if any ppl do 4u
2 ppl in my class this year - other guy got 37% (& he's not stupid either)
Have been confident (& thought I was okay) up to now, though I may not have done enough work
Understanding 4u pretty good, tho am so busy that harder Q's don't get practised
Hence, all Qs in book? not quite
Tried 2 HSC past papers got average 60%
& I'm hoping that some more work on mechanics will help this


hmmmm... so now I've bared my soul, I'm not exactly liking my chances
