Here we go again..... :mad1:
To be honest, i did no study at all in year 11. I think i may have started studing for yearlies a week before they started and it was nothing major.
Although i would try a tad harder if i went back and did it again, its important to remember that ultimately year 11 means nothing and you shouldnt study to such an extent you burn out for year 12.
The other tip i can give you is make sure you go into year 1 mode at the beginning of term 4
I didnt and just cruised through my first assessment tasks...
You don't wanna be like me and have to come first by a wide margin in your half-yearlies to reclaim your rank haha

As much as I'd like to breeze through the exams and do hardly anything in year 11, I'd still like to get as much practice for year 12 so that consistent revision comes naturally in year 12 and that I develop good study habits.To be honest, i did no study at all in year 11.

Although thats a good idea in therory (and something i wish id done a bit more of in hindsight) just make sure its nothing to extreme.
If your talking 30 minutes of study a night on most days of the week thats perfectly fine. Anymore then that your wasting your time and youll most probably be more inclined to burn out of have panic/anxiety attacks come year 12.
Thanks for the advice
Oh, and although unrelated, i thought id share some more advice i wish i'd been told about before year 11 started.
Look over the syllabus for all subjects your interested in, not jsut the ones you have currently selected. you might find you would be more interested in other subjects then the ones your currently doing.
If i had done this, instead of doing physics, chem ancient and geo in prelim i would have done bio,earth, legal and ancient.

Woah, you practically wished you did completely different subjects.

Excell physics is alright, but it often fails to directly answer the dot points and explain some things properly. Why bother with it when jacaranda is so good.
