Let's be honest though.

(And @ Shuuya: ) The truly brilliant English students (96+) are usually able to get at least 1300 words in their essays on exam day.
True true, but im just hoping to get over 90 so that it doesnt absolutely destroy my atar.
Just wondering how long do teachers at your school take to mark tests and stuff?
Maths its generally the next day but some eager teachers (like one that i had but left) used to mark on the day and you could come after school or lunch to get marks.
English about two weeks and science is a about a week.
Not sure for humanities
Do you any of you 2016ers have subject regrets?
No ragrats

The two people who beat my ATAR, they also memorised 5000 words or so.

And their exam mark for English was 93 as opposed to my 90 so

It is only March. So you still have a lot of time to make a significant impact to your marks.

That is either elitist, or scary from the teachers.

I didn't study until lead-up to exams and hey where did I end up? Pretty high anyway.
