How to study for the School Certificate? (question) - Science (1 Viewer)

[LoveHateSchool]

sly, I got high 80s for Eng/Maths, 93 for science, 94 for geography, 96 for computing and 98 for history. I did light revision for science and history, that's all.

I just assumed that selective kids got 98+ in all theirs.

dont study because it doesnt affect your hsc so who cares
also tell your parents to fuck off

I know the School Certificate is an absolute waste of time but I'm just challenging my friends who did the School Certificate previously. They got around 90-95% on average and go to Selective Schools such as Girraween, James Ruse, Fort Street and Sydney Boys. Also, I have very stereotypical Indian parents who believe you should get good results for even the things that are pointless. Lastly I just don't want to embarrass myself.

And BTW, how did you guys put your subjects and ATAR aims/ATAR marks at the bottom of each of your posts? EPIC
PS: I'm new to 'Bored of Studies'

Problem diagnosed.

I got low 90s for everything.

Anyways, I think it's just a matter of knowing the content well AS WELL AS going over the features of conducting and writing an experiment, drawing a graph etc. These are typical errors made by many students which...to my surprise still happens in year 11. It's ridiculous. So get it right now.

Take a few past exams of the Board of Studies site, do them, and give them to your teacher to mark. With that feedback, this process should see a drastic improvement. Yeah?

Thanks for the advice!

97. I don't have notes anyway, didn't study for it.

I always knew you were a nerd
KONFIRMED NERD.

I got 99 for computing in the SC

I got band 2/3's in the school certificate despite studying for literally 4 hours a day for two months straight. I think this goes to show that studying doesn't really help and you shouldn't really bother

I was then rejected in all my subject choices and they wouldn't even let me do 3u maths so I had to do general maths+ made me do senior science instead of physics+ Standard english instead of Advanced but let me keep food tech, hospitality and art

loljks.
But if you're bothered enough to study, just do a past paper or that multiple choice thing they have on the board of studies.

I received two band 5s...English and Science. And I go to a somewhat decent school. Disappointing...
Agree with whoever posted above...tell your parents the SC doesn't mean shit.
My crap SC Maths mark didn't stop me getting a B6 for 2U last year...
P.S: I'm curry

Please treat the SC seriously. It's good practice. If not, at least learn the basic building blocks for Year 11.

Lol, fact is most selective kids don't give a damn. Great marks though (Y)

I take that back, Mister. FULL. NERD.

Who said I was trolling? I'm dead serious. But hey, at least i'm coming first in general maths! I don't even have to study. I'm quite happy with my subjects now

I liked the SC. We use to have past paper parties.
