don't take this the wrong way. but couldn't you just buy a large 240-paged workbook and do the papers down in there, with the electronic soft copy of the trial paper up on your laptop screen? that's what i do. i don't bother with writing down the question again, i just write down my response, then mark it afterwards. that way you don't waste time, study as immediately as you'd like, all without the intimidating stack of papers waiting for you like judgement day on the edge of the desk.

and its very resource-effective. i see my friends printing out trial papers out all the time, and the environmentalist in me screams 😅

Based but its the vibe of the paper... like u can't write ur answers in a workbook in the HSC so its sometimes better/more fun to practice. I normally don't print out the MC or essay options and stuff though bc u can just answer them in exam writing booklets

gotcha. not a big vibe type of gal, i think i'm too utilitarian / conservative for my own good.

way too many distractions that way + it’s nice to have the actual space for each question and get into the habit of drawing all over questions

i appreciate the environmentalism but also you’re still using paper with a workbook 😭

i stg my school has perfectly fine tables but for some god unknown reason they choose to use the most tiny wobbly tables every for the HSC, I literally have to push my entire weight onto one side of the table to keep my sanity and build up a massive stack of 10 booklets in a space which fits 2

like why tf would you choose bad tables for the hsc you should be trying to advantage us not do this 😭

OMFGGG trials were so bad, i cant form a single thought without the tables squeaking 😭
