I'm thinking ahead for trials...
How many trial papers are you all planning to do in one day?
How many subjects per day?
Complete trial papers every day?

I'm still deciding these things BUT would doing each subject everyday be possible? That's what i might do.....but I'll let you know when I'm sure.

Omg, but if you did each subject every day, then you would have to dedicate 3 hours per subject and in my situation, where I have 5 subjects, that's... 15 hours.

I guess I must not eat or sleep! Must get that ATAR!

 

[AsuTeksu]

That's what I've been thinking about... doing all subjects in one day is not possible on my end, but at the same time, limiting myself to one subject per day makes me feel like I'm setting myself back.

I could have a five day rotation where I do one paper each day, but that doesn't seem efficient...

Hmm that rotation idea sounds like a possibility cause we cannot forget we have to mark each paper as well an see where we messed up

I mean, most of my remaining subjects require written feedback so my teachers will be crying with piles of my trial papers...

 

[ziGma]

Quick question: most people in my grade gatekeep EVERYTHING (including me sometimes) - so are ya'll going to openly give your trial papers to teachers or try being a little privi about it?

@AsuTeksu you could try the rotation method for a week and if it feels unproductive then change it up?

I only have one subject which means less trial papers (yay!) but also I still have to go to school throughout the whole exam period (damn), so I only think I'll be able to do either an exam paper per day or 3 hours of memorisation, notes, etc.

just do it who cares, even if ur tryna be ultra selfish it’s beneficial for ur cohort to do better on the hsc (even if it means they do better than u on trials asw) compared to the rest of the in class assessments

Oh I will definitely gatekeep my trial papers from everyone, especially since everyone in my grade is watching my every move to see how I do so well at school. I plan on emailing it to my teachers or meeting up with them privately.

Seems like a plan! Another thing I'll update you on when the time comes!

With Mathematics Advanced, I did a trial paper every day or every second day. Teachers should understand that your accelerated subject is your priority and worst case, express that to them and reassure them that you will catch up soon after.

I didn't have to go to school the day before the exam, since that was procedure. Not sure about you though.

I didn’t go to school day before either and because I did religion as well I got some extra days off as well.

 

[AsuTeksu]

I think if my situation was different, I would share my resources. If I were to help my cohort, that would be like handing a knife or gun to an assassin that has been hired to terminate me.

Nice, I don't think I'll get any extras but I will have study periods at school (aka the periods where my Ancient class used to be)

Is your school a high rank though? Seems pretty competitive

beg '23 to review it

I just make it competitive, haha. There's really only 3 of us who are fighting for the top and everyone else doesn't really care. My school's rank is 350-400 lol.

 

[AsuTeksu]

I'd rather rank first in all my subjects and have some control over the marks I'll end up with.
