Hello, 2013ers! Have any of you done any study these holidays? I have starting writing notes for belonging and reading Frankenstein and in a few days I'm going to read over my first topics.

Yeah I'm getting started on my Biology syllabus, and then for English our school is starting with Module B next term so doing prac essays and writing notes on all the speeches.

I think it's good to get started over the holidays (doesn't have to be extreme) but at least you're more prepared and ready to settle into year 12.

I say you studied hard for yearlies, now you expect to maintain momentum in yr 12 study IN YOUR LAST HOLIDAYS BEFORE FREEDOM IS LOST!?!??! no thats a bad idea I think. Me personally I did physics and chem for the first few days of holidays then thought no fuck that, im never getting any more decent holidays ever again. Im just going to go crazy having fun. I highly recommend you do so too. ONLY go crazy studying in 6 week holidays, then EVERYONE's studying pretty much.

Yes, I completely understand what you're saying but I am currently on my 10th day of holidays and I haven't done any work and have been out alomost everyday. So that's why I want to start now. I feel relaxed and re-energised.

Oh in that case you can go for it, start on notes for all your subjects and work ahead.

But srsly I feel quite energised too, but these are honestly the last holidays of fun you're gonna get, appreciate every second of them :)

Trust me, enjoy the break.
You will have PLENTY of time to do HSC work in the coming 12 months so don't stress or start feeling guilty about anything.
I really hope you guys have a really decent holiday and be out of your room more than you're in it.

I've started today *only* trying to finish the ch.15 quadratic topic in the 3u maths J&C book cuz yeah I didn't quite fully finish all my yr 11 maths hw lol

I would have started for english however teacher never told us which path we were going, i.e. the frankenstein & dickinson route or the great gatsby and browning one

maybe I'll write notes on fiftieth gate and hamlet (critical studies sigh)

tried looking at some chem past hsc papers and read some bit of space topic for physics

maybe I shall starting thinking about belonging creative, I def fail at those because I don't have a good idea
