there are some ppl here that can vouch for me on my nonchalance haha

Bros much more nonchalant than me
but Ykw respect

 

[Kat.crazi]

guys is it bad if I straight up copy and memorise someone else's exemplar para (from trials) and regurgitate that (through adapting ofc) during HSC
I mean theres like thousands of students so it wouldnt really matter right
cause I cant be bothered fixing up that specific para

Just write your own paragraph bro
yea maybe u won’t get in trouble now but taking shortcuts like that will never help u in the long run

paper 2 easy as you can memorise most of it and the only issue is time management. one section of paper 1 is unpredictable and that consumes a lot of ur time in the test. paper 2 is so blissful

@coolcat6778
Do you reckon an actuarial degree is worth it and what would be the best degree to combine it with for a double?

 

[Kat.crazi]

ruse papers are just more time consuming cause they are wordy. they're so fucking boring. hsc papers are unique

i was so ass at eng, rank was horrid (cant remember exactly but i remember for trials i cried in class coz i got like 69% and my rank for that trial was in the bottom 50%)

anyway for the hsc I tried perfecting my essays and memorised a base general essay for every mod and I memorised a few extra quotes just in case, and for short answer (I was actually so ass i always failed that at school or got lower than avg) I kept on practicising with other school/trial/hsc papers and would cmpare my answer with the sample answer and see the difference/take note of what I was missing

I ended up getting an 85 so yeah not as great as what others have gotten here but I think it was way better than what I was expecting

how many sections of unseen texts did u do during this time period? say like 2 weeks b4 hsc

past papers r super uncomfortable , Should i just make anki flash cards and memorise it cos im actually getting soo many things wrong.

My foundations r cooked

thats the beauty of discovering them now

imagine during the day of the hsc u get surprised with these questions

if ur talking abt math pls keep doing questions. the hsc has certain patterns and youll thank yourself later bc formulas will only take u to certain extents

Yep its math, btw have you done your textbook questions.

I have done like the examples and 3 from each chapter cos my school doesnt care

[Scryne]

How are you guys studying for those 'content' subjects (eco, bst etc)? I'm barely getting through half of each past paper, I think it's over for me.

Atomi videos + anki flash cards, thats it no past papers got rank 1 in bio thru this method so imma stick to it cos i got no time for past papers

Also my school is shit so, rank 1 doesnt mean shit

Fair enough haha. How are you using Atomi videos? Making notes on them while watching?

I saw question 14 and I was like 'Yeah, that's enough for me; I'll cope with an E2'

well yeh throughout the year we've done textbook questions

id say only do textbook questions rn for topics ur truly weak in so u can grasp foundational skills b4 u grind out past papers. though hsc starts in like 15 days theres abt 21 days till the math exam so u do have time. if ur feeling a bit uncomfortable rn i recommend working simultaneously with ur textbook, anki and past paper questions

u can spread out a past paper between days rather than doing a whole paper in one sitting. that way you'll still get past papers done. also at this rate maybe work on hsc questions if u feel uncomfortable instead of trial papers cuz theyre more challenging and u dont want to be freaking out rn

I never make notes, i just make cloze flash cards for definitions. And basic flash cards for listing stuff/ describing processes.

Then i copy the stuff in the basic and make multiple clozes on that awell.
- Seperate card for listing examples, then another for explaining impacts etc

Also the aim is to guage high yield stuff and keep your cards as small/concise as possible. Cut out useless things

so 1 idea per card, split it up as much as possible. Also when you cloze make sure you close 95% of the info so you dont get pattern recognition
