HSC - How much time are you spending studying? (1 Viewer)

[Hehehe22]

Ok this is kind of a basic question, but I want to know how much time everyone is allocating to studying for the HSC. This applies to new HSCers (class of 2025) and graduates when you did your HSC. What is sustainable? Also, what subjects tend to take up disproportionate amounts of time?

Up until trials it was either 1-2 hours a day of studying, then the two weeks before trials it was 3-4 hours a day of past papers and just going over the syllabus. During hsc period is more chill and it would be about 4-6 hours of light study (ngl those 4-6 hours during hsc fly by so fast and were not hard at all)

4-6 of light study like just reading over notes, while procrastinating on the side, like lazy studying

If you do tutoring just focus on getting all your homework done in a normal week however long that takes. I went to a bunch of tutoring and typically had time to do at least 2 hours of study/work outside of school and tutoring each day. Once you get to pre externals hsc go for like 6 hours a day if possible but it's really hard to sustain proper study for that lon

also i started actually decreasing my study time as i got closer to trials and hsc bcuz i knew the content pretty well and i wanted to avoid burn out
