Is there a major difference between the two? Which one is more beneficial?

Hi do you mind sharing how you prepared for English and improved in the holidays?

Right now I'm thinking of reading other people's essays and taking notes of how they structure their work as well as maybe writing a few practice essay. I really struggle with cohesive and writing A range essays under timed conditions and my marks are very poor when I have to sit in class tests...

Thank you for your reply! Just wondering, do you recommend Terry Lee for 3U? I currently use MIF and Cambridge for 3U but I want to find harder questions, especially with the minimal past papers.

Our school uses the Maths in Focus textbook for the new 3u and 4u course. I've heard from other users that these textbooks are too easy and insufficient to prepare for actual HSC. I don't know if it's just a rumour but apparently Cambridge textbooks aren't that great for the new syllabus anymore...

Sorry this is a little off topic but the first part that you wrote really resonated with me. I have just finished a term of 4u and I feel like I have no confidence in my maths abilities, because people that go tutoring that learn content ahead are always able to answer q's that our teacher asks...

Hey guys, does anyone have any tips on self learning 4u in the upcoming summer holidays. Anyone that self studied for 4u have any tips/resources? Also how much of the course do you think would be a good idea to cover?

In a similar situation right now, where my rank is in the bottom 50 percentile. If you don't mind me asking what was the weighting on for your trial exams, specifically for maths?

How do you guys structure your weekdays? Do you study in the morning or prefer to leave it to all after school? Feel free to drop your daily routine + times schedule below.

hey does anyone know any good tips for procrastination? i always leave my assignments last minute/the night before and i know the work i hand in isn't of my best ability but each time i just cant stop myself and not leave it last minute. Also what are your study routines like? such as your daily...

so im currently in year 10 in an accelerated class and i was wondering is there anything i should do in the holidays to prepare for this year and yr 11? also my marks are slightly above average in my class and i was wondering if there is anything i can do to change that so i can be top 5??

so i messed up all my english assessments this term and got moved to a low class with heaps of esl students due to my issue with procrastination and doing everything last minute. does anyone have any tips for essay writing as in structure and analysing in year 10 and specific essay writing...

is it a bad move to not take any science subjects for hsc? I was thinking of focusing more on subjects like business studies/eco. Can I still get an atar over 95? also how many hours do you guys study on weekdays and weekends and at what times?

does anyone know what i can do to improve my english marks? I did really bad in my assessments this term and im really bad at essay writing, especially with structure and analysing so if anyone can recommend some tips that would be great. also for science, i find it really hard to understand...

Hey does anyone have any notes on the first world war for history and notes on atoms for science??
