Ok so I can write enough in a certain amount of time, but after one or two essays (depending on how long they are), my hand gets pretty sore. Besides just writing a lot, which I'm doing now, how else can I improve my stamina for the HSC?

Ahh ok thanks heaps man! Helped a lot ;D

I mean as in, what if a class was marked too harshly in a school and then everyone smashes their school assessment marks in the HSC exams, will our internal marks be affected in any way? Mainly I'm asking because I've been getting a low-ish average in some classes this year and I was wondering...

Ahh alright, didn't know that. But either way, does the board of studies take the rest of my cohort into account, as in say the class average is 60 but in the actual HSC exam everyone gets like 60 or over? (Not saying that it'll happen but just curious)

Ok so say everyone in a class gets above their class average from the internal assessment, will our marks get scaled up by the UAC at all because we may have been tested or marked harder by our school?

I went! Honestly, it wasn't a great day.. Still, worth it to go there, the Mechanical & Mechatronics lecture thing was kind of a let down though.. That was the main reason I was going as well, still the students running things outside were a great help =D Totally worth going

LOLOL Same with me, coming first in my class now ;D

I feel for you, it's the same thing with my teacher in Legal Studies. I pretty much just go through the textbook, take down summarized notes and the legislation that corresponds with them. Judging by your post (All the pretty colours XD, and the fact you do art) you're probably a visual learner...

I'm doing 11 units in the HSC right now which are: -Mathematics -Ext.1 Math -Standard English -Chemistry -Physics -Legal Studies I did Business Studies in year 11 but I dropped it cause I found it extremely boring. Best choice I made, if you're dedicated to actually studying during your free...

Understanding the content is different from memorizing the method, I know how to do most questions after I look at a few examples or do a couple of practice questions since it jogs my memory of the topic.

Yep, I have one, none of my friends are on it yet... I is a lonely kid

Yeah, I'm doing two sciences, honestly it's not THAT big a deal to do three, there are quite a few people I know who do that. But don't pick them unless you really enjoy all three a lot because you might get bored easily of just doing science all the time and that's not gonna get you the marks...
