Hey
Personally I do not use HSC Hub by Atomi but I have access to an alternative known as HSC Study lab
https://hscstudylab.com.au/

If you have a membership at a library in NSW (Not sure about other states), you are able to get a free subscription for all their subjects.
It is $99 otherwise per subject, which is much cheaper than the $470 for each subject by Atomi.
It's very much the same concept as Atomi, with a video for a dotpoint (or more than one), and the whole ordeal is run by Macquarie Uni.

The main drawback is that they only cater for HSC Chemistry, Biology and Physics at the moment, but plan to add a larger range of subjects.

Hope this helps, hf in the HSC :read:
Thanks heaps,

Everything helps :wavey:

Are you guys handwriting or typing your notes?
I’m currently typing my notes (Front-loading and actual) as it is efficient and I can transport them with ease.

As part of my study routine, I tend to write out my notes with minimal viewing to test my knowledge.

I have tried handwritten before though, and I might go back but I am unsure.

When I was doing my HSC, I personally hand wrote notes because it is much easier to ingrain it into your memory, but I didn't read over my notes very often because it was the process of summarising that enabled me to increase my understanding, and not really reading over notes. In retrospect, if you are not a perfectionist, typing notes first would have been a much better option, simply because deleting, re-organising content would be much easier.

Depends on the subject, I handwrite for English, legal, modern and history ext but I type for bio and Eco because those two have a lotta content (last year I handwrote Eco and it was 50 double sided pages so basically 100 pages Oml I wanted to die but I guess it was worth it since I came 7th..)

Does pursuing/doing a higher level of mathematics have an impact on creativity of individuals?

Perhaps something relating to your own interests or personal experiences would be a good topic for your pip?
For example, something to do with music you like, a genre of tv shows you watch, an aspect of your own culture, etc

How did everyone who was doing HSC maths exams go?
I actually felt pretty good about today... much easier than some of the ones in past years. I was expecting a weird q15 or 16 but it wasn't there?

Yeah, overall a pretty good test. Felt like a lot of the questions were pretty much repeats of most questions done so far...

Well it must be a good feeling to get 2 units done.
