And im still doing quite well, beating average in all my subjects. I dont know why, but almost every assignment i had i started the night before, sometimes i was up at 3 am and just beginning to start. The funny thing is, for a few of these i have gotten some really impressive results and a few topping my class. In previous years when i gave a damn i actually got 3rd aggregrate for DUX in my school, but this year i pretty much adopted a nonchalant, complacement attitude. When i had a whole free weekend, or holiday, to study or do an assignment, i dont do it till the early morning. There have been MANY days where i have not slept and came into school late to hand in an assignments, and most of the results I get are great - never below 80 for an assignment.

And i dont do any homework. This year for year 12, i think i have done about 10 hours study, most was the night before my mid course exams. All in all i dont do any school work or study on average at all. At school i dont pay attention either, i sleep in all my classes and have never have i read set English texts for years, yet i still top the exams for them.

Trials? I havent even started studying for them. Usually i read summaries and notes, no writing, the night before an exam, and i still end up in a position towards the top end in all my subjects. My subjects are:

3u Eng
Modern history
Business studies
General maths
history extension (I did SOME work on this, usually the night before the teacher wanted to see an update.)
2 unit SOR

So my point: What the hell is wrong with me?

Dude, don't worry.
You're probably just one of those people who is extraordinarily smart and seriously underestimates themselves.
Because I'm almost the same:)
Except not quite as smart by the sound of it.
Be proud of it!:)

yeh, im jealous, ur one of those freaks that dont even really need to study and u do really well. i know a lot of people like u. im a bit the same but i do need to be a bit of study. until now, for trials, i havent really done any, and ive been getting averge /above average for everything. but think of it this way: imagine if u DID study regularly! u'd be getting freak high marks.

oh by the way, by saying ur a 'freak' i dont mean it in a derogatory sense at all :)

Look at your subjects. They're all BS. Business studies? All commerces are scourges of the world. Lucky you don't do any sciences! :p

Dude to put it lightly, the only thing wrong with you is that you're blantantly trying to get people to stroke your ego like a kitten. Either that or you're as blind as Gloucester in King Lear "I don't know what's wrong with me" pfft.

Saying that, good luck in the trials.

As a student who has natural ability and works hard to get the best marks poosible, I think you are crazy. Rather than wasting your time bragging about how good you are, you should be doing some work.
You ask "What's wrong with me?" What's wrong is that you have let your ego get in the way of your potential and have become lazy. Regardless of what you say, you can't do absolutely no work and jag the HSC in every subject. Youre going to fall on your face. And judging by your attitude, there will be plenty of people to laugh at you when it happens.
What upsets me is that people like you give high flyers such a bad reputation. I hate it when people imply that I don't work hard and really deserve my marks just because some people are lazy and don't deserve them.
Just do some work ok?

I've seen a similar case at my school.... a little shit who was younger than us all, in our grade, still managed to do brilliantly and he showed no tendancy to do work or homework or study at all.... photographic memory you could say.

shame now though, that we put in the effort and he remained the same over the years and slowly fellllllllllllll flat on his face.

now he realised that he needed to work. just in time too.... you Mr Lah, obviously have a long way to go.

yea i'm a bit like that. i dont study much at all but my rank is still really good. like you, i do all the bullshit subjects eg. english, business studies, eco. it's easy to just fluke assessments especially if we only have to write an essay. but now that trials are coming up im really regretting not studying harder. in the trial and hsc you actually have to know CONTENT and you cant just bluff your way through essays. there is so much to learn that its so hard to cram now. so, i wouldn't get too big-headed if i were you. im thinking that im probably going to bomb out now in the trials. hopefully that's gonna motivate me to study for the actual hsc.

Re: I havent done real study all year, and have procrastinated my way through year 12

To the people flaming me, all i can say is get fucked. Im not flaunting the fact, nor am i proud of it. I have a serious problem with procrastination and concentration for studying, i want it to change but i just cant sit down and do work knowing that i can 'leave it' for another day, and the cycle continues.

And am i Asian? Hell no.

You didn't come across that way from your post.

Judging from what you've said, you lack motivation. Find something that motivates you to study, and you'll be willing to spend time studying in hopes of reaching your goal.
