yeah all of your reactions are pretty much the ones I get when I tell friends from other schools
I should clarify though, we have yearly prelim exams in year 11 and the obvious half-yearlies and trial HSC in year 12, just not anything from years 7 - 10 (although I think my school is implementing yearlies for this year's year 10 and below due to no SC)
the only thing is, I think having yearly/half yearly exams is actually good practice for later years.
haha yeah the clarification was needed. that makes more sense now :) but yes, having half yearlies and yearlies in your other grade does help year 11 and 12 exams seem more regular and more relaxed.

???? How can you all sleep for so little?

I heard the night before an exam, if you have studied, get more sleep rather than studying more, as it is better to retain information. Then again, if there is no information to retain, study.

I sleep for 9hr minimum, every night. 10pm-7am is usually what I do.

This, I always procrastinate sleeping LOL. I manage to be OK throughout the day really, it's just a pain getting up.
Saaaaaame! I absolutely abhor that feeling in the morning, but once I'm awake and at school things are alright haha.

Syllabus notes for Chem/Bio/Legal
Do a crapload of maths n study for the next assessment
Go running every day (to get fit!)
