I am shitting myself, do they really matter?

Given that there are literally notes and resources for all modules and all subjects, is there really a need for me to write my own notes??

Today was my first day of year 11, and with how much the teachers are scaring us with HSC, pre-lims and trials, I can't help but feel a bit nervous and unprepared for the year. I was wondering if I could get some tips on how to survive the school year and acheive the best possible marks for...

Hey, year ten has just concluded and I was wondering how exactly to get ahead in the summer holidays. I've read from previous threads that going through the syllabus would be effective, any tips though on how to properly analyse the syllabus especially if it's rather convoluted. Also would it be...

Guys this post may come off as really stupid so forgive me, but how do you guys study using past papers if you haven't covered all the content in them yet? Do you nitpick specific questions - if so doesn't that defeat the purpose of doing it in timed conditions? Also how far back do you...
