No need to stress. Its worthless if you're planning on doing senior years. If you want to do well, I suggest revise topics you've studied at school. Simple=)

I got Band 5 (87) in the English School Certificate, and the school prevent me from doing English advanced. So yes, the School Certificate is important for some students.
That is a deprivation of basic human rights! Sue them I say!

But they may be right - I'm not good enough for Advanced.

anyhow, I'm trying to get a place in Advanced for Year 12 because there will be 10 people dropping to Standard.

^ wtf? you're not allowed to do Standard at our school unless you absolutely fail yr 11 advanced.

Our trials are next week. We only found that out today. Just goes to show how much our school cares about the SC :]

don't stress out too much people... believe me.. this is not worth it.. I used to not take the advice of senior students (11/12) when I was in yr 10 and studied for SC and wasted so much effort in it, which i regret :mad1:

I've done my trials.. just have to study for real thing now!

Maddie dont worry, you will do fine, there is a movie u should watch, it may be about a celebrity kid going to normal school, but he has testiphobia (i think that how it spelt) it means he goes in to do a exam, and he freezes, and cant do it.. he gets sick and everything.

Because he sings, he just imagines its a concert, and he gets through the test.

just imagine your doing something you love.

and does anyone know where i can find REALLY good study notes..

A good reference is www.skwirk.com.au
Has the syllabus and topics covered in the School Certificate in mathematics, english, science, history, geography and awkwardly commerce. No computer section though probably since its general questions.

Sections might be cut out if you don't own a premium account but you can defy it by refreshing the page or press the back button and reopen the topic.
